Descriptions

Objective of the education is to learn how to develop and use applications and systems needed for the communication between people, and companies, as well as between equipment, devices and things. In Addition to the technical qualifications, the ICT engineer needs oral and written communication skills in different languages, business skills, as well as the negotiation and leadership skills.
Given the rapid development of ICT industry, the engineer needs good learning skills, including the ability to follow the development of the ICT technologies but also an attitude to the continuous development from the lifelong learning perspective. International work environments, project based working and challenging tasks require the engineer to have good assessment and problem-solving skills. In particular, the client projects require good interpersonal skills but the development of social media applications and games requires good psychological and artistic stance and approach.

Development

The curriculum is based on the needs of the working life and on the professional qualifications that have been identified in many working groups with industry as well as in the Industrial Advisory Board of the Degree Programme in Information and Communication Technology.
To achieve a smooth flow and progress of studies, the curriculum structure is based on clear and larger study entities. Partly the professional studies are based on internationally recognized certified education, which guarantees a better international comparability and awareness as well as the level of quality.
