The study lasts three academic years (i.e. six semesters), 180 ECTS credits. Candidates for enrollment in this study program must have completed a four-year secondary school. The professional title that is acquired is Baccalaureate/Bachelor of Mathematics – Mathematics and Informatics Education
The main goal of the study is to provide students with knowledge and skills that qualify them for access to the second cycle of study and enable them to work as baccalaureates of mathematics and informatics majors. During their studies, students acquire knowledge and competences in various areas of mathematics and informatics, which enable them to learn the necessary mathematical methods and IT systems at all levels of integration and in a wide range of relevant problems. Students also acquire knowledge from a group of pedagogic-psychological and methodical-didactic subjects and during their studies perform methodical practice in mathematics and informatics in elementary school. During the internship, students follow the preparation and delivery of the teacher-mentor’s classes and independently prepare and realize a certain number of teaching hours. Depending on the choice of elective subjects, students have the opportunity to acquire additional knowledge in various areas of mathematics, informatics or teaching methods.
