The main objective of the Bachelor in Informatics Engineering is to provide a sound and wide technical and scientific background on Informatics and other relevant areas while satisfying the Bologne principles in what concerns teaching methodologies, duration, employability, and mobility.

As the Bachelor is a first graduate degree, the required competencies for proceeding to a Master or PhD program are developed. Given the technical and scientific know-how acquired during the Bachelor is quite natural that many carer opportunities will take place at the end of this degree.

The Bachelor in Informatics Engineer from the Universidade do Algarve has a sound scientific background on Fundamental Sciences, as well as technical and scientific know-how on areas such as Programming Methodology and Technology, Information Systems, Artificial Intelligence, Operating Systems, Architectures of Computational Systems and Computer networks.
