The term "new economy" describes the transformation of economic activities as digital technology makes accessing, processing, and storing information cheaper and easier. The vast volume of information dramatically changes the way markets operate, leading to a restructuring of businesses to create wealth through the utilization of available information.
In the new economy, the competitiveness of a modern business unit and the efficiency of an organization increasingly depend on how well they assimilate new technologies and develop new organizational structures.
The Department of Information and Communication Systems Engineering trains the personnel of the information society and contributes to addressing the needs of the new economy for skilled personnel, which is one of the most critical problems of our time.
However, a significant "skills gap" is observed, referring to the imbalance between the supply and demand of personnel specialized in new technologies (information and communication technologies), a problem that is particularly crucial given the needs of the new economy. Consequently, the demand for scientists specialized in new technologies is particularly high both nationally and internationally.
The above goals of the Department, combined with the comprehensiveness, coherence, and variety of courses in the Study Program, the teaching methods, and the activities connecting with the industry (such as internships and lectures from invited organization executives), create the adequate conditions for the professional placement of its graduates.
