Firstly, Algebra students will acquire the knowledge needed for the rapidly developing digital industry. This provides them with a good start and enables them to choose a career.

Development and high employment rate. 96%* of students started working within three months of graduation, which may best illustrate this point.
Algebra’s second competitive edge is in s continuous monitoring of technological development and the actual needs of employers, thereby improving the academic curriculum.
Recognizing the educational achievements around the world, we are the first Croatian to apply modern methods to the qualification framework.
This is the method used when designing the curriculum and formulating the implementation method. It is this approach that has become part of the official guidelines that will be adopted by other Croatian institutions in the coming years to meet the greater needs of employers and technological development.
Lastly, Algebra’s third characteristic is the focus on real quality. This institution’s general education methods and quality have been recognized by the National Higher Education Regulatory Agency (Scientific and Higher Education Institutions) in Croatia.

It is a well-known scientific fact that lack of physical activity will endanger human health. Insufficient physical activity and reduced stimulation of the musculoskeletal system adversely reflect the normal function of all organs.
Lack of exercise is the fourth leading cause of death in the world, and people who participate in sports are less likely to suffer from various diseases.
The university strives to improve the quality of life and health of its students. In recent years, one of Algebra’s most important goals is to make physical education a compulsory first-year course for all undergraduate courses. The most important goals of the course:
In addition to the exercises planned in the physical education class, our students can also participate in organized sports activities and can also participate in Zagreb University Sports Federation competitions.
All courses require additional training time, as well as expert guidance and supervision, in order to best prepare for the competition.
To improve the quality and attractiveness of education, Algebra organizes and supports students to leave school to participate in international university competitions, such as Elektrijada, Tehnologijada, Universiade, etc.
Sports and science competitions allow students to participate in valuable connections, exchange experiences with students from other colleges and universities, and have fun.

The student card ("X-ica") is used as proof of the use of students' rights and interests, such as meal expenses in cafeterias, discounts for public transportation, discounts for certain government agencies, etc.
The public student restaurant offers subsidized Erasmus+ student meals, and you can enjoy 3 high-quality meals a day. Foreign students in Croatia will receive a student ID during the first month of their trip.
