Education with ICT (4+1)

Education with ICT (4 + 1)

Postgraduate studies in Education with ICT aim at top European and world education and training of primary and secondary school educators with the most modern approaches to the acquisition of new knowledge, as well as the use of advanced information technologies. These studies will also enable students in engineering to focus on research in the field of information science education. After graduation, students will be able to more successfully approach the new generations of students in the field of informatics.

 

The ICT Education Studies program is compatible with the relevant studies offered at most of the world's universities that support this theme and enable student mobility. Some of them are:
