Abstract
The article examines the role of socially responsible behavior of an individual in the digital space. The research has been implemented since 2021 as part of the scientific project “Social responsibility of students in the conditions of professional training in universities of Western Kazakhstan”, IRN AR09058126, funded by the Committee of Science of the MSHE of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Modern university students are the future leaders of the state, therefore, their way of thinking and behavior determines the framework of sustainable development of the country. That is why the mission of the modern domestic university is to form a system of values of students through socially responsible education. The authors confirm the need for ideas and tools for the implementation of corporate social responsibility and personal social responsibility of students through high-quality educational programs in a digital university. The scientific and methodological basis was made up of the works of foreign scientists S.L. Davis, L.M. Rives, S. Ruiz-de-Maya; J.C.R. Sousa, E.S. Siqueira, E. Binotto, L.H.N. Nobre, etc. In order to confirm the relevance of the problem, the results of the diagnostics of the activity component, the indicator of which is the social activity of the individual, were presented. It was revealed that purposeful work is needed to develop an integral system of selfgovernment for the majority of respondents, generally leading to an increase in the level of social responsibility of students.
