Department of Computer Science and Autonomous Systems
Head of Department
Hovhannes Dashtoyan
PhD in Engineering
The department of Computer Science and Autonomous Systems was established in 2022 through collaboration of the International Scientific-Educational Center of NAS RA and the Instigate Scientific Research Center Foundation.
The establishment of the department Computer Science and Autonomous Systems aims to conduct project-based research within the framework of real and socially significant projects provided by government bodies and companies and approved by ISRC.
Department Objectives:
- Prepare highly qualified masters in computer science and autonomous systems capable of conducting both theoretical research and applied work.
- Contribute to enhancing the scientific research skills and qualifications of the workforce.
- Establish a cooperation platform between government, private organizations, and research institutions.
- Combine work and science.
- Produce high-quality research work and publications endorsed by the ISRC and the university's scientific council, aimed exclusively at solving real issues.
- Engage the stakeholders commissioning the research and students conducting the research, supporting their collaboration in addressing scientific research problems.
- Promote a culture of designing, proposing and building effective research toolkits to be outsourced to research teams.
Specialization: Information systems development
Research Works
The research is conducted through real projects where students engage in theoretical learning individually through online materials and collaborate on practical assignments, structured as vertical projects, aimed at facilitating qualitative research and MS theses.

Department opportunities
A format of learning parallel to work has been developed enabling students to engage in a variety of real or socially relevant projects proposed by employers. This approach results in the creation of high-quality master's theses. Projects are tailored to match each student's work experience, abilities and skills.
An inter-university inter-professional distance education format, built on a proprietary information management platform, has been developed. This platform offers personalized pages for students, faculty and researchers, including project management pages, online courses access, video and document management pages. These pages serve as comprehensive representations of students' work, replacing traditional CVs by showcasing their real-world projects and contributions.
