This article examines the theoretical and practical aspects of informatization of education as a key factor in improving the effectiveness of the educational process in higher education. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the comprehensive comparative analysis of the implementation of information technologies in higher education institutions of the Czech Republic and Ukraine. The article reveals new aspects of digital transformation in education by comparing institutional, infrastructural, and pedagogical approaches in two European countries with different socio-economic contexts. The originality also consists in identifying three interrelated levels of informatization — physical, logical, and applied — and establishing their influence on the quality of the educational process and digital competence formation. The object of the study is the process of informatizing higher education. The subject of the study is the methods, mechanisms, and results of implementing information technologies in universities of the Czech Republic and Ukraine. The purpose of the study is to determine the role and effectiveness of information technologies in enhancing the quality of higher education, as well as to identify similarities and differences in their implementation within Czech and Ukrainian educational systems. The author concludes that informatization is a strategic direction for educational development, ensuring the formation of a digital culture, enhancing the competence of teachers and students, and integrating them into the global information space.
