The extraordinary term responds to the growing demand for IT specialists and the shortage of teachers who can prepare students well for the current technological environment. New directions, such as quantum informatics, are also coming to the fore, which expand the possibilities of processing information and data. Not only the technologies themselves are changing rapidly, but also the demands on graduates' knowledge and how informatics is taught. Therefore, both programs combine a high-quality theoretical foundation with practical skills and an emphasis on working with modern tools.
The Master's degree program in Quantum Informatics opens the door to one of the fastest-growing fields of study today. Students focus on the principles of quantum computing, learn to work with quantum algorithms and understand technologies that have the potential to fundamentally change areas such as cybersecurity, optimization, simulation of complex systems or the development of new materials. The study combines computer science, mathematics and elements of physics and prepares graduates for employment in research and in top technology companies at home and abroad.
The Master's degree program in Secondary School Informatics Teaching focuses on preparing teachers who understand modern technologies and can explain them to students in a clear manner. The study combines professional IT education with didactics and pedagogical practice. Emphasis is placed on the development of IT thinking, working with data, and the ability to explain the principles of the digital environment in the context of today's society. Graduates find employment not only in education, but also in educational projects, companies, or in the popularization of technologies.
“Both programs respond to what society will really need in the coming years – experts in new technologies and people who can convey them in a comprehensible way. We want our graduates to be well prepared for the real challenges of the current IT world. We see great potential for the future in quantum informatics, while in computer science teaching it is essential to create a new generation of educators who understand modern technologies and can bring them closer to other students. We have adapted the study to this, which connects a high-quality theoretical foundation with practical skills that students will actually use in practice,” says Ing. Zdeněk Muzikář, CSc., Vice-Dean for Study and Pedagogical Activities at FIT CTU.
Applications for studies can be submitted electronically from June 1 to August 14, 2026.
