Introduction. Modern linguistics demonstrates an increased interest in the semantic analysis of terms in various fields of activity. The study of English-language university terms is of great importance for understanding modern educational practices. This study aims to determine the semantic parameters of British university terms in a digital environment. Materials and methods. The university terms presented on the official websites of leading universities in the UK were selected as empirical material. The total volume of the analyzed material amounted to 50 terminological units that partially belong to the noun. The method of content analysis is applied in order to detect the terms you are looking for, the analysis of dictionary definitions in order to verify their meanings, lexico-semantic classification in order to categorize them. Results. The semantic classifications of English-language terms in the field of higher education are studied. The semantics of university terms on the websites of British universities is analyzed. A semantic classification of English-language university terms in the digital environment has been developed, which includes four thematic groups: organizational, methodological, professional, and academic terms. The frequency terms reproduced within the framework of organizational and academic groups are revealed. Discussion and conclusion. The study expands knowledge about the lexical and semantic structure of university terms used on the websites of UK higher education institutions. The results obtained can be useful for studying English-language university terms in the framework of terminology and cultural linguistics.
