Conferences

We present to students the wide variety of IT disciplines through teaching and also through specialized conferences that we host or co-organize. Among other things, conferences are a great way to meet leading IT experts and fellow geeks. These events attract audiences not only from among people working in the field, but also from the general public.

FEBRUARY

Prague PostgreSQL Developers Day

The Prague PostgreSQL Developers Day (P2D2) is a developers conference focused on the relational and open-source database management system PostgreSQL. The two-day event offers lectures and workshops. The event’s narrow focus is good news for apps developers and PostgreSQL administrators. The conference is organized by the Czech and Slovak PostgreSQL User Group (CSPUG).

MAY

LAW FIT

The IT field is developing rapidly. So it is no surprise that the relatively rigid Czech law often cannot keep up with this pace. Consequently, questions and legal issues regularly appear whose solution is challenging. That is why, each year, we organize a meeting of experts, where they can discuss the current problems of law and informatics. The conference is open to students and the general public.

JUNE

Prague Embedded Systems Workshop

The FIT Department of Digital Design is a proud organizer of the Prague Embedded Systems Workshop (PESW). It is a meeting place for students and experts in the field of embedded systems, their testing and application. The aim of the workshop, where students’ advancements in research are presented and discussed, is to boost cooperation among universities in Europe and outside Europe.
