This study programme will give you practical knowledge and skills necessary to maintain and manage computer systems in different areas – from business automation to industrial process control. You will learn how to configure computers, networks and operating systems, protect data and help users in dealing with everyday challenges.
About the study
The programme prepares students to perform support roles in the implementation of computers across various segments of business processes and tasks related to computer systems maintenance, such as: selecting and configuring computer hardware and software according to business process requirements, participating in software development, creating and maintaining databases, configuring and maintaining computer networks, configuring and maintaining operating systems, monitoring the security of computer systems and data (protection against unauthorized access, planning and execution of data backups), configuring and maintaining computers used for the supervision of non-computer systems.
Upon completion of the professional study program, students acquire the knowledge and skills necessary for employment in the field of computer systems maintenance and user support.
Professional competences include: designing optimal configurations of personal computers for various tasks, selecting and configuring software according to business process requirements, supporting the design and development of software applications, developing applications in an internet environment, maintaining databases, understanding the basics of computer networks and computer architecture, configuring and maintaining computer networks, configuring and maintaining operating systems, monitoring the security of computer systems and data (protection against unauthorized access, planning and executing data backups), configuring and maintaining computers for the monitoring and control of industrial, energy, and other processes, training users to operate computers and use various applications, setting up and configuring network operating systems and applications on user computers
General competences include: the ability to analyze, synthesize, and think critically when solving complex problems, effective use of the native language and english in reading literature and professional communication, applying knowledge of mathematics and physics to solve engineering problems, proficiency in using standard software tools for document creation, spreadsheets, presentations, and calculations, acquiring the ability to apply knowledge in practice, along with continuous learning and self-learning using literature and modern self-learning tools, the ability to work in a team and make decisions, ethical and responsible thinking and action in professional and social contexts.
