Computer Science

Prospects of graduates Informatics is now firmly established as a sector that has a fundamental impact not only on the relevant fields of science and industry, but on the society as a whole. At the same time, it is a sector that is developing extremely rapidly. In practice, therefore, there is a great demand from companies for professionals who are able to work with the latest technologies and apply them to the development of specific products. The programme meets these demands and, in addition to acquiring a solid theoretical foundation and a sufficiently broad outlook, allows students to specialise in a variety of areas, from software engineering and software systems development, through the theoretical and practical aspects of computer security, bioinformatics and machine learning, to data science and theoretical computer science. This variability is echoed by the variability of the specialisations in which graduates apply themselves. They find employment mainly in IT (especially software) companies, often as software developers or project managers within the specialisation of a particular company. Other indicated occupations include systems analysts, designers and lead programmers in software firms, security managers, administrators of large-scale software systems (database systems, computer networks) in various institutions, or as computer scientists/programmers in specialist non-IT teams. The ability of graduates to understand new technologies and transfer them into practice is reflected in the fact that they are often employed in development teams and are often the founders of technology start-ups. The ability to analyse complex systems from different domains in an exact way and to formulate problems and solutions in them makes them valuable members of interdisciplinary teams. The solid theoretical foundation of the graduates allows them to continue their third degree studies in Slovakia and abroad and gives them the prerequisites for a successful international academic career. Last but not least, the theoretical background and the ability of exact thinking gives graduates the possibility of employment outside computer science in all areas of economy, management and public administration. Graduates can thus find employment in all kinds of businesses and organisations that depend (even indirectly) on information and communication technologies; in various sectors of industry, in the education system, in research, in both the public and private sectors, in banking, transport, healthcare, ecology, etc.
