The role of ICT (Information and Communication Technology) in society has been constantly growing to touch disciplines such as medicine, biology, humanities, law and political science that are traditionally considered outside the ICT boundaries. This is demonstrated by the sector reports, framework programs of the European Community and the continuous scientific evolution in the world of standards, products and systems.
In the Department of Information Engineering, Computer Science and Mathematics, the area of information engineering covers most of the skills required in the ICT, from control systems to signal processing and telecommunication networks, from software technologies and programmable platforms to digital electronic systems, in both teaching and research.
