Informatics Engineering

The challenge for the world of the future is to manage the information technology and computer systems around us and to ensure their security and reliability. Computers are almost everywhere: in smart things, in homes, in transport, at manufacturing plants, and in the near future, embedded in people themselves. Informatics engineers are the professionals who will master the new technologies and apply them to create things that we cannot imagine right now.

In this programme you will study computer systems, networks, cyber security technologies, information processing and management, smart things and computerized environment, and will be able to design, implement, adapt and deploy software and hardware for various purposes, apply information technologies in companies and organizations to solve their challenges.

After graduation, you will know all areas of computer science and be able to combine them, working as systems designers, programmers, cyber security specialists, systems analysts, and administrators.

Candidates can apply for first study year 300 EUR monthly scholarship from “Teltonika”.
