Academic Objectives
The objective of the programme is to train and educate engineers who can install, exploit, and
maintain information technology-based systems and services including the design and
development of the necessary software systems as well. The graduates can progress into a
Master of Science Degree Programme in Computer Science Engineering and/or are prepared to
embark upon a professional career in the field.

Graduated computer science engineers possess the professional knowledge in science,

technology, economics, and soft skills, and after having completed the mandatory internship
become proficient in information technology and computer science, which qualifies them to
solve information technology tasks in the following fields:

 design, development, and creation of technical constructions, in particular information

infrastructure systems and services that require knowledge of technical information
technology techniques,
 solving average complexity technical development tasks in the field of information
technology and automation,
 developing different software applications.

For further education the total number of study credits will be counted in the MSc degree
programme in computer science and computer science engineering. The BSc degree can be
considered in other MSc degree programmes as well. More information about it can be found
in the description of the respective MSc degree programmes.

Graduates of the MSc programme may also have the opportunity to pursue a PhD in Information
Science.

The Student Service Center at the University helps students with various programmes and
trainings, and if necessary, by providing mentors.
Based on student, teacher, and industry feedback, the content and requirements of individual
courses may change regularly. Teachers closely monitor student performance and offer helpful
consultations when needed. High-performing students also have the opportunity to participate
in scientific work and join a lecturer or professor for advanced studies or workshops.

Mandatory Internship
The duration of Mandatory Internship is 8 weeks, 320 hours. The precondition of fulfilment is
to have 100 credits. The Mandatory Internship can be fulfilled at partner companies,
institutions, professional organizations, enterprises or at the University.

Companies offering internship places have to be accepted by the university, by taking the
quality principles of programme into the consideration. At the end of the internship students
have to submit a report to the university.

General rules of the evaluation and examination:

Assessment of the student’s performance:

If the assessment scale of the student’s performance has five grades:

a) 86 – 100 % excellent (5),
b) 75 – 85 % good (4),
c) 63 – 74% satisfactory (3),
d) 50 – 62 % sufficient (2),
e) under 50 % insufficient (1)

The method of the evaluation and examination

(1) The methods of assessment of students’ abilities and skills are determined by the
curriculum, the content requirements, and competences to be developed are determined by
the course descriptions. They can be found in the Neptun electronic study system.
(2) The methods of assessment of proficiencies are as follows:
a) Term mark
b) Exam
c) Comprehensive exam
d) Instructor's signature

All the other details can be found in Study and Exam Regulations:

Final thesis
The thesis is the creative elaboration of a professional computer science engineering task in
written form. It is a result of the individual work of the student carried out under the guidance
of a supervisor. The student chooses a supervisor and proposes a thesis topic at the end of the
6th semester. The topic has to be approved by the supervisor and the head of the department of
the supervisor. The student registers for the thesis course in the 7th semester.

Final Exam
The Final Exam consists of three parts:

 Defense of the thesis.

 Elaboration of a question related to the topic Databases and Network Technologies.
This topic covers selected materials from the courses Databases, Database Systems and
Computer Networking Fundamentals.
 Elaboration of a question related to the topic Computer Architectures and Operating
Systems. This topic covers selected materials from the courses Computer Architectures 1
and Operating Systems.

The preconditions of participating in the final exam:

 obtaining the pre-degree certificate (absolutorium) stating that all course-units have been
completed,
 submitted and accepted final thesis,
 application for the final examination.

The result of the final exam is the mathematical average of the results of the final thesis and the
final exam marks achieved regarding the two topics.
