Slovakia's two largest technical universities — Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava (STU) and Technical University of Košice (TUKE) — have joined forces to train world-class specialists in artificial intelligence. The faculties of FIIT STU and FEI TUKE have announced that they are accepting applications for a unique study program, developed in partnership with the global technology giant NVIDIA.

The new course combines computer science, electrical engineering, and the latest AI approaches. The main goal is to teach students not just to use ready-made tools, but to create innovative solutions independently. The program is fully in English, making it accessible to both Slovaks and talented students from around the world.

Graduates will receive diplomas from both universities, which significantly increases their competitiveness in the job market. The cooperation with NVIDIA ensures access to advanced technologies and practical experience in developing AI solutions.

The study will be full-time and will begin with the academic year 2026/2027. The program is designed to attract top talent, which will help internationalize higher education in Slovakia.

The deadline for applications is July 6, 2026. Detailed admission requirements and study plans are published on the official websites of the FIIT STU and FEI TUKE faculties.

The launch of this program is a strategic step for Slovakia, allowing the country to become an important center for training professionals for the digital economy and future technologies.
