2. Academic information system AiS2 - The academic information system is a complex system designed primarily to manage all three levels of university studies and support the management of science and research at universities. In connection with the implementation of the study program, almost all functionalities and tools of the system are regularly used, for example:

• electronic application (from the submission of the application in electronic form through electronic confirmation to enrolment),

• complex administration of studies,

• administration of study programmes,

• records of the final thesis (with automatic transfer of all final dissertation to the central register of final thesis),

• administration of student accommodation,

• an administrative subsystem for the publication of all documents in the authorized zone, and the creation and evaluation of student feedback surveys,

• alumni portal.

At the management level, AIS serves as a tool for study planning and a resource for teaching reports and measuring the educational performance of departments, divisions, and employees.


3. Financial information system SOFIA - the system module is connected to the AIS system to register all student and scholarship payments.


4. Access to electronic databases – Under the auspices of CVTI SR, selected database collections of electronic information sources are accessible.

9. - Required abilities and admission requirements for the study programme applicants
a) - Required abilities and necessary admission requirements.

The required abilities and prerequisites for admission to the study programme can be found in the admission requirements published at: http://fei.ujs.sk/sk/studium-sk/podmienky-prijatia.html

The PhD programme in Business Economics and Management is aimed at educating young scientists in new socially dynamic and digital environments. Therefore, empathy and social responsibility are significantly promoted among students in the course of their studies. Similarly, interdisciplinarity and a debate on scientific problems while taking into account differences in professional background, as well as in worldviews and cultures, is also considered as a matter of course. 

For the above reasons, admission interviews are open not only to graduates of the faculties of economics and management, but also to graduates of other social science disciplines. In addition, the curriculum of the field of study also predisposes graduates from various technical (e.g. Computer Science) or natural science (Physics, Mathematics) disciplines for successful graduation.

Successful completion of the admission procedure is a prerequisite for admission. Applicants choose one of the listed dissertation topics and they elaborate a project containing an essay on the given topic. Here, applicants need to demonstrate their strengths and the uniqueness of their approach that predisposes them for admission to the programme.

The committee considers several prerequisites for admission. These include:

(i.) knowledge of mathematics at the level of a graduate from master's studies of economics, with an emphasis on the ability to apply that knowledge

(ii.) a basic knowledge of working with data

(iii.) English language skills with the ability to read and listen to scientific texts

(iv.) ability to think algorithmically, with knowledge in any scripting (programming) language being welcomed

(v.) originality of the submitted project's design

(vi.) social responsibility and empathy (as demonstrated by volunteer activities or other acts of social responsibility).

Meeting the above prerequisites is not a prerequisite for admission. The Admission Committee evaluates the project and the personal discussion with the applicant comprehensively and will rank the applicants with a recommendation for admission. The final admission decision is made by the Dean based on the committee's recommendation.

10. - Feedback on the quality of provided education
a) - Procedures for monitoring and evaluating students' opinions on the study programme quality.

The Faculty of Economics and Informatics at J. Selye University has developed and implemented an internal system for the quality assurance of education at the faculty level in accordance with the regulations of the university. The priority objective of the above system is to guarantee, monitor and develop the quality of education from the overall perspective at the faculty.


Pursuant to Section 70(1)(h) of Act No 131/2002 Coll. on Higher Education and on Amendments and Additions to Certain Regulations, students have the right to express their opinion on the quality of teaching and teachers at least once a year in the form of an anonymous questionnaire survey. Students of the faculty have the opportunity to participate in an anonymous questionnaire survey focused on the evaluation of teaching (each subject that the student had in the enrolment list in a given semester) and teachers at the end of each semester (i.e. twice a year). The anonymous questionnaire is available for students in the academic information system of the university.

b) - Results of student feedback and related measures to improve the study programme quality.

After the survey is closed, the results are automatically evaluated by the system. The evaluation of the results is carried out at different levels:

- Teacher level - feedback regarding the courses taught

- Head of Department level - feedback regarding all courses provided by the department

- The level of the Vice Dean for Education and Social Affairs and the level of the Dean - feedback for all courses provided by the Faculty. Free-text comments will only appear after approval by the Vice Dean.

- Quality Assurance Council of FEI UJS - they discuss the results of the surveys once a year

- Academic Senate of FEI UJS - they discuss the results as part of the Annual Report of FEI UJS

- Scientific Council of FEI UJS - they discuss the Annual Report on the Quality Assurance of Education at FEI UJS

- Specialist Committee on Doctoral Studies in the Business Economics and Management Programme -

Measures related to the results are implemented at individual levels.

c) - Results of graduate feedback and related measures to improve the study programme quality.

The Career Counselling Centre of J. Selye University publishes the results of surveys conducted among employers on the following website: https://www.ujs.sk/sk/ekonomika-a-manazement-podniku.


In addition to requesting expert opinions from employers and having employer representatives in the Quality Assurance Council of the Faculty of Economics and Informatics at J. Selye University, there are plans to involve further stakeholders, employers, or graduates of the study programme to a new body called "Council of the Study Programme". The permanent members of the council will be the person in charge of the study programme, the person in charge of the profile courses of the study programme, students, graduates and employers and other stakeholders. The council is being set up at the moment and it will periodically evaluate the state and the quality of the study programme.
