The professional graduate study programme in Information Systems is focused on the acquisition of knowledge and skills needed to design, use and maintain information systems which are applied in different fields of computer usage, with a particular emphasis on software engineering.
About the study
The programme is primarily intended for individuals engaged in software engineering and information systems in a broader sense, as well as for those who meet the general and specific admission requirements and aim for professional careers in the design, development, and maintenance of information systems.
Upon completion of the professional graduate study programme, students acquire the knowledge and skills required to work in the areas of development, construction, implementation, and maintenance of information systems.
Professional competences include the use of modern programming tools for structured, procedural, and object-oriented programming (JAVA, PHP, ASP, NET), understanding principles, creation, administration, and maintenance of databases (oracle, mysql, mssql), application of authorization and authentication systems in the development and use of information systems, understanding of systems for ensuring business continuity (disaster recovery).
General competences include the ability to identify, define, and solve engineering problems, use of techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools essential for practice, of the relationship between engineering activities, design, production, marketing, and user needs for products and services, participation in team development, ability to apply knowledge in practice, learn and self-learn, and acquire research skills, ability for critical thinking, decision-making, and acting ethically and responsibly in professional and social contexts.
