Course Aspects:

The program was created with international ABET and ACM standards in mind and Georgia's ICT sector characteristics.

The course offers:

• Training courses based on modern learning materials: object-oriented programming, data structures and algorithms, tech entrepreneurship, graphic design, computer networks, network systems management, unstructured databases, mobile application development, system programming, machine learning, data analysis, introduction to cyber security, data engineering, IoT-smart systems, UI/UX design, software engineering, DevOps and more;
• Project-based learning: in addition to a large part of the courses, which involves the implementation of projects, the student completes two independent projects, where the student develops a software product together with a team, whose ideas will be involved in the creation of partner organizations: prepare project documentation, build a working prototype, and put into practice the knowledge and experience gained in the field;
• Specialization optional modules: Angular, blockchain technologies, digital signal processing, game creation, iOS programming, natural language processing, parallel computing, smart contracts, software testing automation, product design, cloud computing, the programming language C#, management information systems;

• Close contact with partner organizations of the program and implementation of individual/group projects with their support: the creation of applications, creation of systems using IoT technologies, creation of small software systems, integration and testing of systems, designing of small and medium-sized networks, and others;
• Workshops, thematic seminars, meetings with guests, and others;
• Involvement in the process of conducting research;
• Participation in the projects initiated by the Digital Transformation Center.

• Defines the main issues of fundamental knowledge areas of computer sciences;
• Describes the software and technical means important for the implementation of projects in computer sciences and other areas using it;
• Examines the algorithms related to the implementation of computer science tasks/projects and matches them with appropriate software tools;
• In the process of development/development/implementation of various tasks/projects of computer sciences determines and connects the interests of the customer and the user;
