Summary of the Profile
Objective(s) of a study programme:
To educate the creative professionals, future managers and leaders capable to apply the knowledge of physics, ICT and technologies for innovation development and prosperity of high-tech companies. The graduates having deep understanding in physics, ICT and high technologies in combination with business development competences are expected to fill the gap between research and business development (eg. by high-tech transfer and implementation.)
Learning outcomes:
1. Be able to initiate and perform (individually or in workgroups) the research activities resulting in the scientific progress and better understanding of the processes of nature and technologies; to seek the results based on research and science.
2. Be able to work in complex research teams, to understand the personal responsibility, to seek the common goals.
3. Be able to solve the problems creatively, apply scientific methods, achieve goals in physics as well as business.
4. Be able to efficiently communicate with the professional and general audiences in written and oral way using professional language and techniques; to be able to present one’s activity and results in a consistent manner.
5. Be able to work in multidisciplinary and multicultural teams; to be able to admit different working methods, culture and conventions of the other team members.
6. Be able to plan and manage the personal and team time; to achieve the goals under limited resource and time conditions.
7. Be able to operate and achieve personal goals under the strict conformity of ethical norms of scientific research and business development.
8. Be able to analyze the physical phenomena (natural as well as technological) by the means of theoretical physics as well mathematical analysis.
9. Be able to perform the scientific research activities in physics and technologies, to apply modern techniques of research and digital simulation in semiconductors, telecommunications, lasers, biophysics etc.
10. Be able to analyze and critically assess the experimental data, the effects of uncertainties, errors, reliability and causality.
11. Be able to analyze the business and economics data by means of micro and macro-economics.
12. Be able to assess the commercialization potential and risks of technological inventions and advancements; to manage the development of innovative products.
