1.33University of Rijeka - Department of Informatics
Department of Informatics at the University of Rijeka resulted from a long-term development of educational and scientific activities in the field of informatics which date back to the year 1986 when the Institute of Informatics was founded (later renamed as the Department of Informatics) at the Faculty of Arts and Sciences (later renamed as the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences) in Rijeka. The Department of Informatics was founded in April 2008 with the mission of creating conditions necessary for scientific research in the area of social sciences in the field of information and communication sciences and in the area of technical sciences in the field of computing. Members of the Department work on educational and scientific activities in the domain of information system, intelligent systems, networking and communication systems including the development of multimedia learning support systems (e-learning systems). The aim of the Department is to significantly intensify cooperation with the economy in order to better prepare our students for future work challenges. The Department of Informatics has three institutes, with chairs and laboratories, which are structured with aim to support scientific and educational activities: the Institute for Communication Systems, the Institute for Computer Science and the Institute for Business Informatics. The work at the Institute for Computer Science concerns theoretical background and the implementation in the field of intelligent systems and operating systems. The Intelligent Computing Systems Group conducts research in the fields of Speech Technology and Intelligent Computing Systems. The study curriculum core courses conducted by the institute include: Programming, Algorithms and Data Structures, Operating Systems, Digital Systems, Intelligent systems, Introduction to Digital Speech and Image Processing, Man-machine communication, Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining, Knowledge Management, Decision Support Systems, Natural Language Processing, Information Technology and Project Management. The Institute for Communication Systems deals with the teaching and research activities related to computer networks, dynamic web applications, and the use of information and communication technologies in education or e-learning (e.g. Learning Management Systems (LMSs), the use of multimedia and hypermedia in learning, recommender systems, Web 2.0 tools, etc.). The Institute also deals with the impact of information and communication technologies on the economic activities, public discourse and social practice. The core courses related to these topics involve Computer networks (1 and 2), Dynamic web applications (1 and 2), Network systems management, Multimedia and hypermedia systems, Basics of e-learning, Information technology and society, and similar courses. The institute has two chairs, the Chair for Network Systems and the Chair for Multimedia Systems and e-Learning. The Institute for Business Informatics is concerned with research and education in the field of information system development. From the methodology standpoint, the main goal is to research and make use of the methods for IS analysis and development. The IS modelling process as well as the use of each individual method is enhanced in order to achieve the main goals: better system description, shorter modelling time and better connection with the software development process. An advanced version of the MIRIS methodology is developed as well as methods for estimating IS complexity. IS development phases are defined in detail, together with modelling process and methods that are preferred to be used during each activity.
1.34University of Rijeka - Department of Mathematics
As a successor to various institutions that have been educating teachers of mathematics since the 1960’s, the Department of Mathematics was established in April 2008, based on the Decision of establishment of the Department of Mathematics, University of Rijeka, which was passed by University of Rijeka's Senate on 17th December 2007. The Departments of Mathematics along with the former employees of the Faculty of Philosophy has a tendency toward assembling others mathematicians from the University of Rijeka. The first cycle study programme in mathematics and the second cycle study programme in mathematics and computer sciences are studies of the University of Rijeka which are organised and conducted by the Department of Mathematics. The Department is divided into divisions: Division of Algebra and Number Theory, Division of Discrete Mathematics and Division of Mathematical Analysis. Since 2011, the Department has been organising and conducting the first non-educational graduate study of mathematics at the University of Rijeka: Discrete Mathematics and its Applications. That study differs by its content and learning outcomes from existing courses of mathematics in the Republic of Croatia. It is important to mention the organization of NATO Advanced Study Institute on Information Security and Related Combinatorics in 2010 and 5th Croatian Mathematical Congress in 2012.
