Telecommunication technologies and data transmission engineering
An engineering degree opens up a wide range of career opportunities that can foster development in both the business and technology worlds. Telecommunications technology and data transmission engineering practice with communications systems and large-scale data networks that display, process, store and transmit analog and digital information. For many years, the telecommunication and data transmission sectors are one of the fastest-growing industries in the world. Therefore, the study program is designed to meet the growing demand for qualified specialists in this rapidly developing industry. The study program introduces methods, theories, principles, and technologies to solve topical problems of signal transmission and reception, information security aspects, compatibility, interconnection, and coexistence of various communication networks, as well as the design of communication systems. Students gain competitive knowledge of modern communication technologies, telecommunication and data transmission systems, computer networks, basics of programming languages, mobile network architecture, etc. Both the study program and the academic staff are open to innovation and modern interactive teaching methods. The study program regularly includes new university-level study courses in perspective directions, as well invites experienced foreign guest lecturers.

Telecommunication technologies and network management
Telecommunication technologies plays a key role in our modern information society. Digitalization is here to stay. The ongoing digitalization builds on an efficient communications systems infrastructure. Research on telecommunications systems and networks focuses on the future of the broadband Internet, as well as on new (RoF, 5G, and further) optical fiber, wireless, and multi-service communication systems, which are critical elements of the connected world of the future. Graduates of the telecommunication technologies and management specialization will acquire the knowledge and skills required to design, implement and manage telecommunications solutions based on modern technologies. In the field of telecommunications when innovative technologies rapidly develop, the proportion of research work and new, complex solutions in the total work amount increases accordingly; it is connected with processing and transmission of large amount of information, as well as the necessity of their use in decision adoption. With the rapid change of technologies, the emphasis in the study program is not on any current, topical, specific technology, but on the unifying foundations of these technologies with a view to the future.
