Software Engineering
While everyone talks and writes about a constant shortage of specialists in the field of software engineering, why not to take advantage of this opportunity to get enrolled in the study of programme of Software Engineering, carried out at Šiaulių valstybinė kolegija?
It is great if you like information technologies - in 3 - 4 years of study you will learn to professionally design, program, test, implement and maintain program systems and apply security solutions.
Organizations managing large flows of information are looking for such specialists!
To have more confidence in a workplace, you can choose from three alternatives – online program systems, program systems in your organization's local network, or program systems for smart devices.
Studies at Šiaulių valstybinė kolegija can be combined with work – both in full-time and part-time mode. Individual needs are accommodated on a case-by-case basis.
Why in Šiaulių valstybinė kolegija?
Students learn to analyze and evaluate information systems, choose the most optimal technical and software tools for project implementation, prepare a program system project and implement it, install, test and ensure project security. Practical skills are developed during three practices.
