STUDY PROGRAM AT CNS FOR INFORMATION SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY

Introduction

Information sciences and technologies create new products, processes and distribution systems. New products include the computer, the Internet and digital television; new processes include Internet banking, online and mobile commerce, automated inventory management, automated counter operation and others; new distribution systems include cable and satellite television.

Information sciences and technologies have been identified as one of the main players in the fight against climate change, specifically in improving energy efficiency. They influence the reduction of the use of primary energy sources. They help in the search for cheap and clean sources of energy.

The emergence of these new technologies requires people working in information sciences and technologies to educate, improve and upgrade their knowledge constantly. The need for constant study of newly developed technologies is what makes these sciences and technologies very attractive and challenging. Today, information sciences and technologies are the backbone of every business and are the basis for its competitiveness and efficiency.

The Information Sciences and Technologies study program for the second cycle of studies at UINT aims to provide students with a broader knowledge of the concepts, theory, and practice of information sciences and technologies. This program aims to develop students’ capacities for critical analysis and solving problems efficiently.

The study program for the second cycle of studies at UINT includes the study of mandatory subjects in advanced programming algorithms and development – research methods in science and engineering, big data analysis, high-performance computing and advanced cloud computing. The large number of optional subjects from different areas makes this program very attractive, primarily due to the possibility of choosing subjects for narrowly focused improvement in the areas of interest.

Emphasis in the second cycle of studies at UINT will be placed on independent research work, both theoretical and practical. The tendency will be for each exam to be taken with a specific practical project that will be distinguished by modernity and will be in accordance with the scientific trends in the field.

Students who complete this cycle of studies will acquire a good basis for further scientific research and professional development, as well as techniques and skills for continuous independent upgrading of knowledge.
