Fields of Spesialisation
Communications and Data Networks
The main study and education areas in the this major option are related to different telecommunication technologies. Telecommunication's laboratory covers Internet technology and mobile communications widely. For Internet activities, the laboratory has independent study and simulation network containing all essential working components such as routers, hubs and switches. This network allows network installation, configuration and management actions that could not be carried out in an operational network. The laboratory for the mobile communications provides extensive set of computer aided environments for education and evaluation of cellular network operation.
Software Engineering
True software professionals are in great demand in the ICT industry. To become a good software professional, you have to master quite many interesting areas of computer engineering such as basic principles of computer hardware and telecommunications. Software development itself is a very versatile and captivating process and it consists of many phases such as systems and requirement analysis, design of the computer system, design of the architecture of the software, programming, testing, commissioning and maintenance. The programming skills are very important for a software engineer. Sometimes programming is called "coding". In our Information Technology programme it is much more than just coding. Programming is modelling of problem solving or task performing. It is the software engineer, who develops these models.
