Belgium is sorely lacking in computer scientists. The situation is such that our country's capacity for innovation is at stake, because the IT challenges are major: how can we support the new economy without computer scientists? This is also true throughout Europe. This crisis offers unhoped-for job prospects for university graduates in IT.

Our training opens up a wide range of horizons, from development to IT department management. Indeed, IT professions are extremely varied: quality manager, system/application/business architect, functional analyst, DB/security/network expert, business engineer...

In service companies (banks, insurance companies...), public authorities (European Commission, Walloon Region...) and many large private companies, UNamur IT graduates are called upon to become strategic players. Indeed, our training enables them to grasp the latest technologies and methodologies with ease, and also a particular expertise in the field of information systems.

Studying on a staggered timetable leads to the same diploma as daytime studies (bachelor's degree in computer science, master's degree 60 in computer science). Only the ways in which skills are acquired differ.

• A broad program for multiple skills

  Graduates who meet the multiple needs of companies and are notably able to:

  • lead a medical record management project;
  • frame an IT integration process with third-party companies;
  • offer customers e-commerce facilities;
  • develop an information network in an administration;
  • implement a production management system;
  • implement a quality approach to IT development.

• Numerous personal and group projects

  Both Bachelor's and Master's courses place a central emphasis on project work. They help integrate theoretical knowledge and develop collaborative work skills. Indeed, these soft skills are essential for successfully completing ambitious projects in organizations.

• An active pedagogy adapted to an adult audience

  The pedagogical principles are based on a constant interaction between theoretical concepts and putting theory into practice. Numerous examples and exercises draw on everyone's professional experience.
