The current digital transformation of social relations implies a massive "embedding" of information technologies both in traditional activities and the formation on their basis of completely new forms of economic interactions that have not been seen before.

A specialist in the digital economy era should have very broad competencies, most of which he can get by working on real projects and solving specific problems.

The creation of the Faculty of Digital Economy is due to the high demand for highly qualified personnel in the labor market of the information technology field.

The faculty prepares specialists who know how to make business successful with the help of information technology.
