Focused on engineering and computer sciences, architecture and economics, with state-of-the-art investments in the infrastructure systems of 11 laboratories, Tirana Metropolitan University is the first and only Albanian university that offers all study cycles in Artificial Intelligence.

Last year we opened the bachelor's program in Artificial Intelligence, and this year we have approved the opening of the master's program in this direction," said Rector Prof. Dr. Nikolla Civici. "The doctoral school at Tirana Metropolitan University was established in close partnership and with the support of French universities such as Gustav Eiffel, Institut National de Sciences Appliquées, Ecole CentraleSupelec and the American university “University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.” This doctoral school places UMT on the map of academic excellence in the region and is the best guarantee for all students who continue their bachelor's or master's studies", added the rector, mentioning some of the most requested programs by graduates such as Software Engineering, Computer Engineering, Economic Informatics, Architecture, Construction Engineering or new study profiles such as Fintech finance.
