The rapid development and improvement of computer technologies, as well as the large number of IT companies working in the field of creation and application of computer and information technologies, necessitate the need for highly qualified professionals using modern technological innovations. Due to the high demand for well-prepared specialists in the field of computer science in all spheres of public and economic life – industry, science, business, education, healthcare, transport and others, interest in training at the Faculty of Computer Systems and Technologies is permanently high.

Faculty Faculty of Computer Systems and Technologies (FCST) was founded in 1987 and is one of the largest faculties at the Technical University – Sofia. Its structure includes four departments: Computer Systems Programming and Computer Technologies, Information Technologies in Industry and the department Cybersecurity.

Over 1600 students are studying at the Faculty of Computer Systems and Technologies (FCST), of whom approximately 1300 are bachelor's students and over 300 are master's students. Every year, approximately 200 bachelor engineers and around 70 master engineers graduate from the Faculty of Computer Systems and Technologies. There are approximately 40 doctoral students. The bachelor's and master's diplomas of the Faculty of Computer Systems and Technologies are internationally recognized and fully comply with the requirements of the European Union.

The teaching staff of FCST trains students from the other basic faculties of the Technical University – Sofia, as well as from the three foreign-language faculties. They actively participate in training within the Sector for Postgraduate Studies at the Center for Continuous Training (SSDO/CCT) at TU-Sofia, as well as in training at the Professional High School of Computer Technologies and Systems – Grad Pravets.

The faculty has approximately 20 research and teaching laboratories. They are equipped with the most modern computers, specialized high-tech hardware, various peripheral devices, and laboratory kits.

FCST periodically publishes the scientific-technical journal "COMPUTER & COMMUNICATIONS ENGINEERING", where scientific articles in the field of computer systems and information technologies are published.
