Applications are welcome from all candidates who have graduated from a four-year high school. The studies are organized in line with the Bologna principles, with one semester subjects, modular and reorganized programmes, bearing in mind the total commitment of students during the academic year within a 40-hour working week, expressed by ECTS.

Each study year is organized in two semesters with 15 weeks of active studies, whereas all subjects last for one semester. The scope of every subject is expressed by ECTS, and the scope of the studies by the sum of ECTS. Each study year accredits 60 ECTS, which corresponds with the average commitment of students in 40 hours a week during the academic year. The curriculum consists of obligatory subjects and electives from 3 elective modules.

The studies are conducted through: lectures, group tutorials, individual tutorials, consultation time and practical study within internship consisting of 40 working days. The type of studies used by professors could be: individual, group and self-study type. The method of study used by professors could be: inter-active (through dialogue), monologue, demonstration method.

The degree earned after completed bachelor studies at the Faculty of Information Technology is Information Technology Engineer – “name of the major”, (where Software Engineering, Information Systems, or Software Development of Computer Games can stand for the “name of the major”). Bachelors of Science possess an integrated knowledge required for professional work in planning, using, managing and implementing IT projects, taking care of the quality of IT services and in other fields.

The degree earned after graduating from Graduate Master studies in INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AND SYSTEMS, at the Faculty of Information Technology is a Graduate Information Technology Engineer – „major“, (where Software Engineering, Information Systems or Information Security can stand for the „major“).

The degree earned after completion of Phd Studies in INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY, at the Faculty of Information Technology, is PhD in Information Technology – „major“ (where Software Engineering, Bioinformatics or Information Security can stand for the „major“).
