University education of IT specialists
High demand for experts in information technologies pushes higher their compensation, including university lecturers. Tuition free university system means full coverages of expenses by governmental budget. But the current formula, according to which are public higher education institutions financed, does not reflect different level of demand at labour market in different particular fields, neither various quality of education and training at various schools. This creates direct capacity limits to high quality courses of informatics at level of schools. Industry utilising information technologies and computer based services are the most promising for Slovak republic in its effort for economy
diversification. From strategy point of view this underpins future economy growth, therefore change of existing financing formula is required. -
