FIIT is the only faculty in Slovakia and in the Czech Republic with study programmes accredited by the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET). Oxford and Cambridge have the same accreditation.

Technology? Innovate IT

Our teachers motivate students to work with state-of-the-art technology so they have a great advantage when starting their first job.

High salary? Earn IT

Our graduates are the best paid employees from among all Slovak universities (starting salary of a FIIT graduate: €2,200 in 2019).

Expert? Be IT

IT experts hold lectures at our faculty and cooperate in its interesting research projects.

Career? Get IT

No. 1 in the employability of its graduates compared to graduates of other Slovak universities (as many as 94 % of our graduates work in the field which they studied).

Fun? Have IT

Our faculty building with its modern equipment is one of the newest faculty buildings in Slovakia. We regularly organize student events, e.g. a FIIT party, where we will be happy to see you.

WHAT YOU CAN IMPROVE AT

A few subjects you can study at FIIT STU

Human-computer interaction​

The subject deals mainly with the principles of designing user interfaces with regard to their look and usability. You will learn how to create such interfaces and how to present information in an understandable form, how to create quick interface prototypes and how to check their functionality and usability.

Computer graphics principles​

The aim of the subject is to provide a basic knowledge of 2D graphics, image processing 3D graphics, lighting and animation with an emphasis on their practical use. You will get practical experience in designing applications using modern graphic cards.

Information security principles​

You will learn the basic principles of information security from both technical and managerial points of view. How to find signs of an attack, procedures to recover after an attack or accident, how to design systems with regard to their security, the basics of cryptography and the basic characteristics of malicious codes.

Artificial intelligence​

You will learn how to make a computer behave smartly. You will learn how to programme independent agents, neural networks and the basics of machine learning.

Data structures and algorithms

You will learn to design solutions for various programming tasks so that they are quick, smart and have the lowest possible memory demand.
