Questions Is department of informatics appropriate for Faculty of Mechanical Engineering? If yes, should it be organized as separate department starting first year of studies through final year? Or, should it be organized as it is now, providing additional/specific knowledge in informatics required for mechanical engineers only within last two years?

Questions () Questions (continued) Which strategy is appropriate to organize syllabus in informatics for Faculty of Mechanical Engineering? Which one is compatible (matching) with Bologna declaration?
