Study programs

Informatics (in the field of informatics)

• The program is internationally accredited by the IET, the British Engineering Council.
• 3-year or 4-year study.
  The 4-year study program was created to help students improve their knowledge of mathematics, as this is by far the most important subject in computer science. In essence, students repeat and finish their high school curriculum and begin to become acquainted with the first programming language. Freshmen in the 3-year study learn two programming languages, each in one semester. The second year of the 4-year study is then the same subject composition as the first year of the 3-year study (minus the programming language, which they have already taken over in the first year of the study).
• STUDY IS IN SLOVAK LANGUAGE

Information for accommodation in a student dormitory

Due to the high number of people interested in providing dormitory accommodation and limited accommodation capacity, the school will compile a candidate's adviser based on their results in the admission procedure. If the applicant wants to increase his chances of obtaining accommodation, it is in his interest to obtain the highest possible number of points (external high school diploma + diploma, or SCIO test + diploma, or entrance exam + diploma).

More information on accommodation in student dormitories can be found on these websites www.fiit.stuba.sk/1685 (in Slovak) and www.stuba.sk/5461.
