Innovations at the Faculty for Information Systems and Technologies

From the next academic year, classes at the Faculty of Information Systems and Technologies, University of Donja Gorica, will be organized in two modules: Software Development (M1) and Digital Transformation (M2). In the Software Development module, the focus is on the analysis of requirements and design of information systems, programming and agile software development, and system integration and deployment. The Digital Transformation module focuses on information technology management, digital innovation of business processes, and new value of the use of technologies such as artificial intelligence and Blockchain.

This approach, together with strengthening foreign language skills of our students, is preparing them for a global labor market. In addition, new modules create a very good foundation for our Master’s studies offering modules Artificial Intelligence, Software Engineering and Digital Transformation.
