The relevance of the study is associated with the active use of digital educational environments in the educational process of a university, in which a significant place is given to the balanced display of visual information. An analysis of the literature on the research problem allowed to establish that for the higher education system it is important not only to develop information processing competencies, but also the ability to generate innovative information based on the data obtained in relation to the chosen field of activity. The work analyzes the concept of “information” from a philosophical and general scientific point of view. With the help of the obtained data, the researcher identifies aspects of information that are significant for the higher education system. Significant attention is paid to the display of visual information as predominant in the information flow. The work makes an attempt to rank methods and techniques for displaying visual information, as well as to describe the visualization process, considering it as an information system and describing it with a certain type of relationship. In conclusion, data on the display of information in a digital educational environment are summarized and requirements for the system display of university information are formulated.
