The campaign for admission of prospective students for the academic year 2024/2025 at the University of Telecommunications and Post continues. This year, the first-year students show an exceptional interest in the specialties Cybersecurity of High Technologies, Computer Technologies and the interdisciplinary specialty Air Traffic Services Communication, in which the UTP trains together with the “Georgi Benkovski” Air Force Academy in Dolna Mitropolia.
For the upcoming school year, there is an increase in the number of students paid tuition. The fee for public procurement remains unchanged at BGN 370 per semester. The positions in the specialties Cybersecurity of High Technologies, Software Design and Computer Administration of Software Applications are already fully occupied. As every year, there is usually a high interest in the specialty “Computer Technologies”, where there are still unfilled numbers. More than 90% of students who have completed Bachelors programmes at the University continue their studies at the UTP for a Master’s degree. Over the past three years, there has also been a tendency for students to prefer evening groups of study in order to have the opportunity to work.
A major advantage of the University is the cooperation with the private sector, where various technological leaders modernize the learning infrastructure and laboratories, send their representatives to teach, train and select talented students for great professional development even before graduation. The curricula are as close as possible to the needs of the labour market of the technology sector, and the specialties are adapted to combine fundamental engineering training with skills and knowledge in areas whose importance is yet to increase in the future.
