Abstract
This paper presents the results of a study on existing organizational models of project-based learning in Russian universities, considering their development within the global context. The research aims to assess the applicability of various elements of these models in Russian universities. Through the analysis of articles, university development programs, and interviews with project-based learning organizers, the authors have identified and presented universal characteristics of project-based learning. Furthermore, a categorical framework for selecting and forming an organizational model of project-based learning in a university has been proposed. The approach utilized allows for the incorporation of a combination of historically successful practices and the necessity for digitizing this educational technology.
