Development of MetaUniversity using immersive technologies and digital twins

In an era of rapid technological transformation, the concept of the "university" is changing. It is no longer a classical educational institution that trains specialists in fundamental and applied sciences. A modern university is an educational, research and practical complex that offers learners access to laboratories, internship bases and knowledge.

With the development of immersive technologies, the "university" is moving into a virtual or meta-space — that is, a web platform that offers learners and organizations opportunities to connect, share knowledge and achieve interdisciplinary academic goals. By joining forces, educational institutions give students access to learning resources from any university or library they need. Students enrolled at one institution can also take courses at other universities and colleges. All this makes education more accessible, advanced and independent.

The MetaUniversity is a revolutionary concept that seamlessly combines traditional education with the limitless possibilities of the Metaverse.

The notion of a university in the Metaverse is a vision of the future of education, implying innovative methods of teaching and content development. The Metaverse incorporates advanced artificial intelligence technologies through the emerging convergence of augmented reality, virtual reality and mixed reality, cloud computing, blockchain and 5G/6G wireless networks.

The MetaUniversity will help overcome the limitations of traditional education, such as rigid curricula, ties to a specific location, lack of flexibility and limited opportunities for interdisciplinary learning. The MetaUniversity removes age restrictions for learners, language barriers and cultural differences, and opens up new opportunities for people regardless of where they live and for people with physical disabilities.

The idea of the project is to develop a virtual space for integrating knowledge and practices from various fields or universities, to implement flexible study programs covering a wide range of disciplines, and to foster cooperation between different educational institutions.
