University of Ljubljana Faculty of Computer and Information Science (reviews)

Depending on the course you pick, you almost have the ability to pick any subject you would like to take yourself starting from the second year (VSŠ programme). Some professors on the required courses can be very toxic and make their classes intentionally hard.

I would say that the curriculum is on a high level (also depends which department you choose). For each subject we have 3 hours of lectures and 2 hours of labs. Only a couple subjects have obligatory attendance, but most dont (depends on the professor). Beside that most of the professors are personally good, they are approachable and you can ask questions as much as you want. The problem is that there is a lot of workload. I personally am also in the student organisation and other stuff and sometimes find it difficult to manage everything for the faculty. Not because of the extra curriculum activities but because at a lot of subjects professors give a lot of work to do.

The programme is balanced between theoretical and practical subjects, both presented by skilled professors. The first year builds up the knowledge to close the gap between technical and scientific high schools, if one is motivated enough.

Courses at University are mostly relevant, professors are friendly and helpful. University has appropriate and modern facilities. Quite a lot international students, which is a good thing. There are many free time activities organised by university student’s organisation.
