Master Degree (M.Sc.) in "Informatics"

Acedemic Purpose

The purpose of the Postgraduate Program “Informatics” is to offer comprehensive education to graduates of university departments of other specialties, related or unrelated to Informatics. Specifically, it aims to provide economists, health scientists, mathematicians, physicists, engineers, educators, lawyers and other professionals with the opportunity to acquire deep and modern knowledge in the field of Informatics, as a field of specialization.

The program is structured as a "Conversion Course" and offers the opportunity to professionals, scientists and researchers from various fields, regardless of their relationship with Informatics, to acquire specialized knowledge across the entire spectrum of Informatics, both at a theoretical and practical level. This allows them to respond to the ever-increasing demand for scientists from various fields that, nevertheless, require specific and in-depth knowledge in Informatics.

This program creates specialized scientists and researchers with theoretical and practical knowledge and skills in the field of Information Technology. It allows graduates to follow the latest developments in Informatics, as well as in related areas such as Artificial Intelligence, Software Technology, Cybersecurity, Programming and many others. Consequently, graduates are able to respond to the modern needs of the scientific and professional sector and contribute to the development of Informatics as a science and the science of their first degree through Informatics.

This postgraduate program is an ideal choice for scientists coming from various disciplines outside of Computer Science. Regardless of whether they seek to specialize in the broad range of Computer Science or to gain expertise in specific areas of it, this program offers the appropriate options. Graduate students have the opportunity to cover the theoretical background of Computer Science through basic courses, as well as to delve deeper into specialized areas of Computer Science through an extensive variety of elective courses. In addition, through of the master's thesis which they prepare under the supervision of professors of the Department of Informatics, they have the opportunity to research a topic that interests them particularly and to contribute to the scientific community of Informatics with their contributions.
