Undergraduate Program in Informatics
The Informatics Study Program provides education in the areas of theoretical foundations of information and computing as well as practical techniques for their application in computer systems.
In the current era of globalization, IT (Information Technology) has become an essential requirement for every organization, including companies in both the service and goods sectors, as well as nonprofit organizations. Moreover, this technology is one of the fields that can directly impact individuals in areas such as communication, entertainment, and education. Therefore, the demand for professionals in the field of Informatics Engineering is very high, both nationally and internationally. In addition to being absorbed into the job market, graduates of Informatics Engineering can also easily become entrepreneurs, leveraging their expertise and creativity in the field of Informatics.
The establishment of the Informatics Engineering Study Program at ITB began with the use of computers under the management of the ITB Computer Center. Driven by a spirit of growth and development, formal education on computers started with the launch of the Technical Expert Education in the Computer Usage Department (PAT-JPK) in 1978.
Students in the Informatics study program will also explore various computer science topics, such as algorithms and data structures, computation theory, programming languages, data and information retrieval, operating systems, artificial intelligence, computer vision, computer networks, software engineering, computer security and cryptography, machine learning, distributed systems, computer graphics and visualization, and other exciting areas.
The curriculum of this program is designed to prepare students to enter the rapidly evolving field of computing and the competitive job market. Its development is based on the curriculum and course recommendations from the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Computer Society (IEEE-CS) and the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM).
