The proposed SP IKT was created by the transformation of the original bachelor degree SP Telecommunications, which was the natural successor of the original single-degree SP Telecommunications Technology. During the existence of the study of communication techniques, many graduates have taken important positions in practice, education, science, public and state administration. As representatives of the older middle generation, let's mention: Ing. Pavol Kukura, CSc., who held important positions in telecommunications companies: commercial director of AT&T Slovakia s.r.o., technical director of Lucent Technologies Slovensko s.r.o., executive vice president of Slovak Telekom a.s.; Ing. Ján Adamec, who held positions: executive director of the ICT and corporate segment of Slovak Telekom a.s., currently director of Microsoft Slovakia; Ing. Ivan Marták, former manager of several telecommunications operators, currently chairman of the Regulatory Authority for Electronic Communications and Postal Services - RÚ and prof. dr. Ing. Miloš Oravec, Dean of FEI STU in Bratislava. From the younger middle generation, let's mention: Ing. Richard Chomist, PhD., executive director for IT and support of ČSOB Leasing a.s., Ing. Matúš Turcsány, PhD., Chief Technology Officer at Ericsson Slovakia s.r.o.
From the employer's perspective, the level of theoretical knowledge in the field of ICT is positively assessed. The quality of the curriculum would benefit from more emphasis on IT skills and cloud technologies. Closer cooperation between the faculty and industry has a great potential to significantly advance the overall quality level of the study programme and thus the applicability of graduates in practice.This is not the case for regulated professions.
