  14. Number of students in different type of courses

  15. Transition from traditional to BSc/MSc system

  16. Research & Development

  17. Multidisciplinary nature of the Doctoral School Multidisciplinary nature: Fits to the past of the Faculty: different diciplines always worked together. Most of the research topics belong to two or more main disciplines. Common basic subjects. Optional subjects from other disciplines: ~ 30% of optional subjects. Main disciplines of research topics Statistics of credits

  18. Publications: connection between authors and departments Nodes: authors; Colors: category of departent; Connection: joint works IT, electrical engineering, mathematics and physics, logistics and transport, mechanical engineering,civil engineering, Faculty of Economics, not in SIU Strong interdisciplinary character can be observed.
