Undergraduate Studies
The four-year undergraduate program of studies provides the foundation in key areas of informatics with its required courses. In addition, it provides a multitude of elective courses which, combined with the final year project, allow students to strengthen the direction of their studies, regarding their professional development as well as the continuation of their studies to a higher level.
A key element of the undergraduate program is that it provides specialty courses allowing the graduates to develop innovative digital systems with applications in important sectors of the digital transformation, such as the digital transformation of the primary sector, the internet of things, data analytics, artificial intelligence, etc.
Graduates of the Department have an excellent employment prospect and professional rights similar to those of other departments of Informatics.
The Digital Systems Department follows a philosophy of quality with respect to excellence and meritocracy, seeking the continuous improvement of the education provided and recognizing the responsibility for offering a multifaceted contribution to society.
