What it is

The degree is multidisciplinary, joining communications, electronics and computer science. Year one covers mathematics, physics, computer science, computer networks and electronics; year two continues with advanced mathematics and physics and the basics of electronic systems; year three turns to ICT topics: algorithms and programming, digital transmission and computer networks, and advanced electronic systems. Teaching is in English, chosen as the working language of ICT. Graduates are prepared for careers in information and communications technology, and typically continue to a master's in electronic, communications or computer engineering.
