Introduction
Bachelor study programme Computing develops competencies to analyze and solve various engineering problems, to work as an efficient member of a team, and to contribute to the design of systems and processes in the area of computing. The fundamental knowledge of mathematics, physics, and electrical engineering is backed up with the usage of contemporary computer tools.
The principal object of study in Computing is the computer as a universal data processing machine, together with the methods of its application in diverse areas. Computing encompasses the theory, methods of analysis and synthesis, design and construction, application, and operation of computer systems. High emphasis is placed on practical skills and early career development during the study. While the first two years of study focus to teach students a common set of skills required by an engineer in the field of computing through a carefully prepared set of required courses, the last year of study offer a large selection of elective courses that will give students an opportunity to gain specific knowledge and competencies in the fields of:
- artificial intelligence
- bioinformatic
- communication technologie
- computer architecture
- data science
- image processing
- multimedia system
- robotic
- software engineering
If they wish to further broaden their expertise in specific fields, after finishing Bachelor study programme students will be well prepared to enrol master study programmes in computing at any university worldwide, including the possibility to continue their education by taking Master study programme at FER.
The study programme also puts a high emphasis on the development of soft engineering skills through the set of transversal courses, which complement basic engineering education with an additional set of skills that are necessary to form an engineer as a complete person.

Career Opportunities
FER alumni are highly appreciated professionals not only in Croatia but also in high-tech companies in different sectors worldwide. FER actively cooperates with more than 450 companies, including some of the most significant high tech companies from Croatia but also all over the world. Both students and companies benefit from this network that provides an opportunity to connect the best matching talents with industry needs even before students finish their studies.
Students are offered early career guidance through the services of Career Center, which helps students to connect with employers through the organization of various networking events, such as Job Fair and Career Speed Dating.
Students are highly encouraged to participate in an internship programme to gain a competitive edge on the labour market while still studying.
As a faculty with traditionally highly appreciated research components on an international level, students can also take a part in more than 250 international and national R&D projects, both scientific research and industry collaboration projects, that run at FER every year.
For students with startup aspirations, a student-friendly startup incubator is a right place to visit and explore new horizons.
