Education in Information Technology is a dynamic process. Its changeability is conditioned, above all, by the needs of our students and the needs of the environment. For this reason, the syllabuses and the learning content have been shaped by the opinion of the representatives of our students and employers.

Consequently, some important changes have been introduced to the study program, such as improving the correlation between subjects, increasing the number of laboratory classes, especially within specialization subjects, and strengthening the leading subjects in each specialization. The study program provides for 20 hours of compensatory course in mathematics.

An important aspect of education is to enable students to choose from a large selection of subjects and create their own educational paths in keeping with their individual interests and professional needs. Apart from specialization and diploma seminar, the student can also choose among some general education subjects, including a foreign language course.
