Summary of the Profile
General Description:
Objective(s) of a study programme:
The aim of the study programme is to prepare creative, proactive, cooperative, responsible specialist in informatics, able to create and implement secure software, when searching for new ways to use computer systems and for effective solutions to process data and information, designed to solve topical issues from various professional areas; and able to compete in the market of rapidly changing technologies, products and services.
Learning outcomes:
1. Knowledge and its aplication
1.1.1. To consistently explain key facts, terms, theories and mathematical methods related to computers, their hardware and software, its features and possibilities of practical application, computer communication and applied solutions, that are related to important historical, current and potential changes and future trends in the field of informatics.
1.1.2. To consistently explain the principles of algorithm creation and analysis as well as programming paradigms, languages and technologies, the principles of human-computer interaction, the typical stages of software life cycle and the methods of software development and maintenance.
1.1.3. To consistently explain how the business, industrial, economic and social contexts affect professional practices that are defined by ethical standards and regulated by laws, including personal data protection, intellectual property rights, contracts, product safety, responsibility and other issues.
1.1.4. To apply knowledge from the study field of informatics to develop applied solutions of informatics that are designed to solve current professional issues and are safe and compliant with other current criteria.
1.1.5. To consistently explain comprehensive processes of digitization and computer computing, development of the field of informatics and possible future areas of informatics and related fields, terms and methods of data processing and analysis, system design and optimization as well as artificial intelligence.

Distinctive features of a study programme:
The quality of the study programme is ensured by the combination of several factors. The content of the programme differs from similar ones (in Lithuania and Belarus) in several aspects. First of all, the programme aims to contextualize the skills of future graduates by using the foundations of humanities and social sciences (Artes liberales subjects) to enable better understanding of the purpose and meaning of their activities, to help become morally responsible for the impact of their activities on the multifaceted societal development, to help strengthen their value system focusing on European values, to encourage the understanding of the reality determined by political factors. The programme contains more study subjects, designed to purposefully strengthen social responsibility of the students. The programme is also valuable as a platform to uncover (and seek) innovative insights into the interaction between society and technical sciences and to strengthen it. Thus it can be said that the programme has a strong educational-value projection.
