Short description of the study programme

The MSc Program in Computer Engineering is designed to give students a thorough understanding of the tools, methods, applications and practice of computer science and information technologies. It is both focused and practical in its orientation, with the goal to provide an education that is directly applicable to positions in industry. It is an integrated curriculum consisting of courses developed for the deeper theoretical understanding of the foundations of computer science, as well as for obtaining practical knowledge and skills required by industrial applications in the complex field of information technologies.
The major specializations in Computer Engineering are Applied Informatics, and Internet Architecture and Services. The specialization Applied Informatics deals with different aspects of the design and development of data-driven applications, and with the model-based and object-oriented design and development principles. While the specialization Internet Architecture and Services allows flexible and efficient information transfer and processing. Such networks form the base to implement a huge variety of services in informatics, telecommunication and in distributed service provider systems.
Each main specialization contains five courses focusing on the field of interest, two laboratory courses, and two project laboratory courses. In these laboratories equipped with up-to-date devices used in industry, students gain hands-on experiences, which prepare them for industrial challenges.
