Faculty for Information Systems and Technologies
Faculty of Information Systems and Technologies was founded in 2008, and currently has around
150 students on undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral studies. One of the main concepts
of studies at the Faculty of Information Systems and Technologies is interdisciplinarity. The initial
premise of such an approach is an understanding that just as “economy can’t be explained by
economy alone”, so the information technology knowledge should be acquired for the purposes of
direct application and facilitation of solving the real-life business problems.
The current generation of students will retire in 50-60 years. No one knows what will happen and
what will change in the world until then. But it is certain that such a vortex increasingly requires not
only technologies, but fundamental and interdisciplinary knowledge. The knowledge of informatics
and IT technologies is sought in the market especially in the fields of economy and business.
The job market requires economists with
knowledge in the area of information tech-
nologies or IT specialists who are able to
apply their knowledge directly to economy
and business. The Faculty of Information
Systems and Technologies will educate
young people in a way to enable them to
meet such demands of the job market.
Those studies will at the same time ensure
good positioning of students at the interna-
tional job market.
The program of the studies is compatible with similar programs of many European and world uni-
versities, primarily with the study program for Information Technologies at the University of Albany
in the State of New York.
IT Labs
CISCO Academy and Laboratory for Digital Forensics–the Cisco Academy at the UDG
was established in 2016 aiming to provide students of the Faculty of Information Tech-
nology and students of the MSc programme- Cyber Security, with additional theoretical
knowledge in the field of computer networks as well as practical experience in working
with real network devices in the assigned network laboratories.
Within the CISCO Academy there are two
CISCO laboratories:
a) CCNA Laboratory - used to hold a CCNA
course and take a CCNA test;
b) CCNP Laboratory –to provide a success-
ful CCNP testingafter which candidates will
be able to install, adjust, and solve complex
problems of routing, switching, optimization
and security in computer networks.
The Laboratory for Digital Forensics at
UDG was established in 2017, with the task
of providing students of the MSc programme
- Cyber Security with the necessary theoret-
ical and practical knowledgein the field of
digital forensics. The laboratory is equipped
with the state-of-the-art equipment for digital
forensics of the Cellebrite company, intend-
ed for academic institutions.
Information Technology Laboratory –The
Information Technology Laboratory, which in-
cludes digital signal processing and imaging,
Internet-of-things, embedded system design,
information systems, etc., has been active at
UDG since 2017. Besides the international-
ly affirmed and experienced researchers,the
ITL engages students and assistants of the
Faculty of Information Systems and Technol-
ogy and the Faculty of Applied Sciences.

More and new projects...
- Collaborative grant sheme for innovative project ideas: ECOMON – Internet of Things Lab-
oratory for Real-Time Ecological Monitoring
The goal of the project is to establish complete sustainable Internet of Things (IoT) based infra-
structurelaboratory for environmental parameters monitoring including pilot sensor network (an
IoT lab in the open) and laboratory (in-house at the university) for data processing, sensor/nodes
evalu- ation and development. By publishing data in real time, our goal is to raise awareness for
pollution emission reduction that will further lead to concrete actions from which will benefit com-
plete Montenegrin society. Within the pilot network, we will cover main and most polluted areas in
Montenegro (Podgorica, Pljevlja, Podgorica, Nikšić, Bar, etc).
Collected data will be offered to citi-zens, researchers
and other institutions free of charge. Based on experi-
ence in installation of sensor equipment through reali-
zation of previous research projects, we are of an opin-
ion that evaluation of sensors and their improvements
should be done continuously. Sensor prices and ac-
curacy varies on the market usually meaning that the
most expensive sensors are not the best ones. Thus,
existence of a laboratory for testing such equipment
is a natural choice if one wants a sustainable system
and continuous knowledge transfer from academia to
industry.
The in-house IoT laboratory will be established within
the University of Donja Gorica (UDG) and will play a
key role in processing of collecting sensor data. It will
be a place where we will gather researchers from dif-
ferent parts of world and different research areas.

will also have adapter modules making them compatible with the most commercial
systems on the market.
- Ministry of Science Montenegro – Innovation proj-
ects Joining to EUREF permanent network with
Multi GNSS CORS station in Montenegro (MontePN)
Subject of the MontePN project is establishing network
of permanent stations with capability to receive GPS
signals, GLONASS, Galileo, EGNOS and Beidou sys-
tem signals. This infrastructure consists of geodetic
GNSS receivers and antennas that permanently moni-
tor GNSS signals and are installed into stable geodetic
markers, computer system for management, receiving
and transmitting data over the Internet, quality control
and archiving. In line with the policy of EUREF network
densification and given guidelines for connecting
GNSS network of permanent stations into EPN, estab-
lishing MontePN is conducted in accordance with the
intention of joining EPN. After fulfilling necessary requirements for membership of MontePN into
EPN, an official procedure for accession is to be initiated, as well as registration of the operational
centre. During project duration, after the system commences to operate, there will be an analysis
of the Galileo satellite system performance and possible applications for governmental agencies,
public companies, and other industry sectors interested in high-precision positioning.
- Ministry of Science – Scientific research project “Artificial intelligence to sup-
port the concept of person-centered care in neurosurgery”
The main aim of the AI4NeuroPCC project is to explore the use of AI for the exploita-
tion of practice-based evidence in neurosurgery to create valuable knowledge which
can help in developing overarching person-centred implementation and causal
framework (including formalising already existing tacit or undocumented knowledge,
how changes occur and could be measured). The person-centred care (PCC) as in-
novative approach in health care has been shown to advance concordance between
care provider and patient on treatment plans, improve health outcomes and increase
patient satisfaction.

National Scientific-Research
Project funded with support from
the Ministry of Science Montenegro.The core concept behind PCC is putting the ‘person before the disease- see the per-
son with the disease not just the disease’ thus ensuring patients and professionals
acting as partners in the care process. Yet, despite these and other documented
benefits, there are a variety of significant challenges to putting PCC into clinical prac-
tice, naming just a few: (i) patient narratives- person’s views about his/her life situa-
tion and condition, his/her feelings, beliefs and preferences, all linked with biological
markers or images, as well as with cultural, educational and behavioural settings; (ii)
shared decision making- creation of extensive illness management between profes-
sionals and patients (often including relatives); (iii) consistent evaluation framework-
evaluate the outcome and assess the benefits for all (patients, professionals, health
care system).
The innovative PCC approach is directly linked to existing healthcare system (it’s effi-
ciency, cost and quality of care indicators, data integration, etc.) and concrete health
issues. Since the recent issues of modern medicine is to prevent death with focused
on increased frequency and severity of impairment attributable to neurological dis-
orders, the AI4NeuroPCC project is focused on PCC in neurosurgery practice. On
the other side, artificial intelligence and machine learning have proven capabilities to
explore massive amount of medical data (coming from different sources) and deliver
automatic medical diagnostics. It is not about technology itself; it is about utilizing
technology for treating the patients as humans and adopting their benefits in PCC
settings.

We know that the flexibility of the labour market is important in the absorption process of graduates therefore UDG has involved company managers in the design of courses and modules.
KNOWLEDGE FACTORY
THE LARGEST EDUCATIONAL IT EVENT IN THE REGION
In cooperation with ComTrade company!
The Knowledge Factory is intended primarily for Primary and Secondary school students, interest-
ed students, IT professionals, but also representatives of the business and professional public who
will be able to learn about technological achievements and trends, share experiences and discuss
possible cooperation in one place.
Technology: Not only a part, but also a means of education
This year, several thousand pupils and students will pass through the Open Science Days festival.
As part of a program called the Knowledge Factory, they will have the opportunity to learn about
the latest trends and various aspects of information technology, from technological to social and
environmental. Everywhere in the world, educational institutions represent the most intensive users
of technological solutions, and are often involved in various research and development projects.
Technology as a means, not just a part of education - is the basic idea of the Knowledge Factory,
which for nine years in a row has enabled young people to learn about current trends in the infor-
mation technology industry and learn more about career opportunities in this exciting field.
From lectures to professions
In order to motivate the participants and bring them closer to the opportunities and
perspectives of new technologies in an inspiring and comprehensible way, this year’s
topics are carefully adapted to listeners of different ages in terms of tone and style of
the lectures. Also, the Knowledge Factory is focused on finding effective ways to mo-
tivate young people to actively participate and independently explore the topics cov-
ered, as it achieves lasting effects and helps the next generation embrace technolo-
gy as an ally in everyday life, but also as a valuable base for professional orientationAttractions and interactions A very important aspect in which the Knowledge Factory differs from semi- nars or professional conferences is the range of interactive activities aimed at ensuring the active participation of participants. In addition to taking an in- teractive approach to presenting vari- ous topics, there is an exhibition enti- tled “With Technologies on You” where visitors are introduced to the technol- ogies of the future in an attractive and exciting way. When it comes to the future, knowledge is its most important resource. For this reason, the Ministry of Science of Mon- tenegro, the University of Donja Gorica and Comtrade continue to contribute to the spreading of technological infor- mation and the development of the IT sector on the domestic field. In the IT world, time is flowing faster, and this is one of the few areas in which employ- ment can be found immediately upon graduation. But for those looking for their future in other areas, technology can be a valuable ally.
