The MAS Information Technology and Systems study programme aims at enabling students to design, maintain, organize and manage, set up or maintain information systems, as well as tasks solving information system protection problems, i.e. protecting information from unauthorized access and use. The goal of the programme is that graduates become professionals who have comprehensive academic education and integrated knowledge of information systems, the development of information security systems, crypto protection and digital forensics.

The objective of the Master’s programme Information systems of Organizations is that students acquire compreshensive knowledge about how information systems (IS) are designed, constructed and integrated in organizations.
 
The Master’s programme is intended for all students who want to upgrade their knowledge and skills, and who were educated in the field of IT and computer science during their undergraduate studies. By attending the master’s programme, students will learn all the challenges and solutions they may encounter when introducing IS in companies and organizations.

Also, the programme is intended for students who have completed the bachelor academic studies in other scientific fields, and want to retrain, expand their skills in the IT field and thus take the next step in their career. This programme will help students enter the world of Information Systems and Technologies by enabling them to fully understand how information systems are designed and constructed, and to understand the impact of technology and its integration in an organization.

The Information Systems master’s programme consists of eight courses, which are divided into two semesters, and master’s students have the opportunity to complete the entire program in 10 months.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PROGRAMME

After completing the module Information systems of organizations, students will be able to design and manage the development of information systems based on their own solutions, or on the basis of using existing solutions for certain parts of the information system. Specific areas of research include, but are not limited to, best practices in the information systems field. Within this module students learn about the information, its processing, storage and use, which is the main function of information systems in organizations, but they also learn about the development, improvement and maintenance of system infrastructure for use in organizational processes. Also, the module includes monitoring and control of information systems resources in order to ensure alignment with the strategy and goals of not only the organization, but also from the aspect of environmental impact.

LEARNING OUTCOMES OF THE STUDY PROGRAMME

By mastering the study programme, the student acquires the following general abilities:

explanations, tests, and application of techniques and methods for solving a wide range of problems in the field of information systems and information security;
analyses, identification and definition of requirements for the application of information systems that correspond to the organization;
analyses of local and global consequences of modern information systems on individuals, organizations and society;
determining and setting personal goals that are relevant to their further education and long-term career planning in the field of information systems and/or information security.

By mastering the study programme, the student acquires the following learning outcomes:
