It of course does not mean that we are satisfiedwith the current situation in our main activities in research and in education.In research we achieved slight improvement in scientific publications, but we would liketo have a better structure of the research outputs, mainly considering journal papers.In education we made deeper innovation of our study program Computer Systems andNetworks with respect to further merging Information and Communication technologieswhich resulted to the Study Program replacement by the Study Program Computer andCommunication Systems and Networks. We believe that this innovation will lead to higherinterest from the side of new students and it fulfils expectation from the side of ICT companies.We are proud that our graduates have no problem to find suitable job. Even more,there is the highest request of FIIT STU graduates from the side of companies within allFaculties in Slovakia.The Report shows the results achieved in research that is of high priority at Faculty of Informaticsand Information Technologies, Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava(FIIT STU).
