Diploma (after obtaining all the certificates)

MAD in Software Engineering + MAD in German Language Proficiency

Who is the program for?

For all those who want to master software engineering as a profession, regardless of whether they have any experience with software development or not, and at the same time want to resemble a competent native user of the German language at level C1.2 in their statements and written speech (achieving this language level it is also related to employment on the labor market => possessing this level of German language is rare in a non-German-speaking environment, so the graduate will gain a huge competitive advantage for working in upper management in a German-speaking environment, or in a company in the Slovak Republic in which German is also spoken in the management) regardless of whether they have any - or minimal - knowledge of the German language or they have been incorrectly presented/misunderstood the basics of the German language, or they repeatedly or for a long time try to learn German language, but so far without significant progress.

Entry profile/requirements/prerequisites

Willingness to learn and to improve your knowledge and skills in PC and software development. An ordinary PC user who already has some programming experience is just an advantage. The ideal candidate has very good abstract, logical, algorithmic, analytical and synthetic thinking, has managerial prerequisites and ambitions, is precise and able to work in a team, thinks about how to simplify and automate things and is determined to work on himself. We assume the internal motivation of the participant to acquire quality foundations of the German language, to penetrate the world of problem-free understanding and use of communication on general and professional topics in the German language, and later to pass officially recognized language certificates for the German language and/or build a career in senior management in German speaking environment, or in a company in the Slovak Republic where the management also speaks German.

This program is a part of:

* an alternative to Java I. is C# I. and an alternative to Java II. is C# II.

Output profile/acquired knowledge

The graduate of the study will be an experienced PC user who knows how to use a computer correctly, safely and confidently at an advanced level, will master the general principles of programming common to all programming languages, effective handling of files and directories and, at an advanced level, any of the programming languages. He/she will learn to use and improve his abstract, logical, algorithmic, analytical and synthetic thinking, communication and presentation skills, master time management and planning activities, acquire work habits and be able to work in a team, understand how to simplify and automate things. He/she will be able to work with data efficiently and in accordance with security rules and create information from it - collection, selection of correct criteria, analysis of scenarios, evaluation, storage/backup and subsequent presentation in electronic and verbal form. He/she will have advanced theoretical knowledge and practical skills in all phases of software development and in all job positions that participate in this development, he/she will understand databases and computer networks, and will raise his/hers knowledge and skills in IT to the highest level in order to be able to perform advanced, complex and management positions in IT, will be ready and able to apply for these positions and will know and understand:

how to professionally approach the implementation of partial activities in the software development process
work in the command line of several operating systems
work with databases and versioning tools and tools for connecting software components
object-oriented paradigm in software development, component development or dockerization
design and create enterprise applications - especially web applications in Java or C#
use design patterns and basic architectural patterns or frameworks
distinguish the features of the software product that are critical in the given situation and how to address them with an appropriate software design
testing, software project planning, budgeting and software development methodologies
take any role within the SDLC (Software development life cycle) – tester, analyst or developer and later project manager or architect
create and document outputs from individual phases of software development: specification of requirements, problem analysis, design, programming, testing, implementation, maintenance and updating
and much more...

The graduate of the study will, in his statements and written speech, resemble a competent native user of the German language at level C1.2 (achieving this language level is also linked to employment on the labor market => possessing this level of German language is rare in a non-German-speaking environment, the graduate will therefore gain a huge competitive advantage for working in senior management in a German-speaking environment, or in a company in the Slovak Republic where German is also spoken in the management), which are necessary for achieving the next level of knowledge of German language, and will be able to:

use the German language in all situations at a level comparable to that of an educated person for whom German is their mother tongue, even on professional topics
understand written text, any spoken word, television and radio broadcasts and films in the German language on any topic literally and without thinking
communicate with colleagues or customers in German-speaking countries in German when solving professional tasks in any field at the highest level and without any preparation
expand your knowledge with professional facts and methods aimed at achieving the highest level
continue to expand knowledge of landscape science and intercultural knowledge at the highest level
and much more...
