Course Details

Objectives: The first-year programme is characterised by required courses in the fields of computer architecture, system programming, database technology, software engineering, automation, and network services and technology. The required courses are then completed with instruction relative to the field of computer security, which is provided in the second year.
The students define and complete their formation by choosing a set of courses that allow them to complete their specialist training in specific areas: software applications, industrial automation, computer graphics and multimedia, computer networks, and embedded systems.
In the area of network applications there is further instruction in the development of distributed systems, such as geographical calculator networks and radiomobile telecommunications networks. The topics explored include software development in distributed environments, performance evaluation of distributed systems, development of advanced applications and services in local and geographic networks. Special attention is also given to communication, to the synchronization and interaction between product applications and hardware components, the design of corporate networks and data centres, as well as to analysis of communication systems based on modern technologies.
Regarding software applications, the coursework focuses on the design and management of business information systems as a support for the organisation and specific needs of the company. Particular attention is paid to the management and organisation of large-scale software projects, i.e. to projects involving a number of programmers for long periods of time, with a focus on various problems such as correction and maintenance of the product obtained.
