The Programme is designed to meet the demands of the IT market in Romania, although many of the Master’s graduates are currently working in the EU and extra-European space.
An increase in the IT market in Iași is forecast for the period 2015-2020, with increasing numbers of Western-European companies planning to open subsidiaries in Iași or expand their current operations.
Most BIS graduates (over 70%) start working in IT before completing the Master’s programme.
Advantages of the programme: practical orientation; mostly project-based assessment; ongoing assessment during the semester, without massive focus during the exam session; flexible schedule; contact with employers; internships in specialised companies; positive atmosphere.
Starting with 2015-2016, some of the courses have been taught in English, together with the “English branch” of the programme (Software Development and Business Information Systems), thus meeting a major demand of IT employers.
