THE DIFFERENCE OF ELOS OF THE MI PROGRAMME 2009, 2013 AND 2017

In fact, in 2009, the programme was called “Applied Mathematics – Informatics” with the major is Mathematics Informatics. By 2013, SAMI was allowed to put in testing the Bachelor on Mathematics Informatics. The 2013 programme is therefore in fact a complete match with the one in 2009. In 2017, with Training programme development project in the 2017-2025 period, the new MI programme has been born and used until today.
