Program Overview

What sets our program apart is that it is truly practice-oriented: one-third of the coursework is theoretical, and two-thirds is practical. Starting in the very first semester, students work on solving real-world business problems and tasks; we immediately demonstrate the practical applicability of the curriculum—across all courses—through specific tasks relevant to their chosen specialization, even in the first semester. We take students’ prior studies and experiences into account; they receive personalized assignments and a customized curriculum, and may even be granted full exemption from certain courses. After the second academic year, students spend the 5th and 6th semesters at our corporate partners’ sites in a real-world business environment, where they acquire specialized knowledge relevant to their chosen specialization. The entire curriculum was developed in collaboration with IT companies.

An advanced-level high school diploma is not required.

Professional Internship
The continuous, one-semester internship in the 5th semester and the 8-week internship in the 6th semester can be completed at any domestic company, as well as at public institutions or nonprofit organizations. In addition, the most successful students with strong language skills have the opportunity to complete their professional internship abroad with an EU scholarship through the Erasmus program.
