Algebra University is part of the largest private educational organization in the Republic of Croatia and the region, present in more than 20 cities throughout Croatia. Our robust mission is to open doors for both Croatian and international students, empowering them with top-notch skills and knowledge to forge globally competitive careers in digital technologies. We are dedicated to shaping Croatia’s digital future, fostering economic growth, and advancing overall economic development. Thus, we persistently craft innovative and competitive study programmes, anticipating the careers of tomorrow.
Founded in 1998, Algebra currently boasts a workforce of over 230 permanent staff members and collaborates with more than 600 external partners. Every year, we provide education to around 15,000 participants through a diverse range of seminars and short adult education programmes. Simultaneously, we admit over 650 new full-time students annually in various higher education fields.
Our central campus is located in the heart of Zagreb, the capital of Croatia, while adult education programmes are conducted in Osijek, Pula, Rijeka, Zadar, Split, Šibenik, and Varaždin, as well as in more than ten other smaller Croatian cities.
Currently, we offer almost a thousand short educational programmes (lasting up to 2 weeks), around 50 accredited longer adult education programmes, and 14 accredited higher education study programmes with several specializations. A significant number of our educational programmes are endorsed or aligned with the official curricula of major global software and equipment leaders, including Microsoft, Cisco, Oracle, Red Hat, VMware, Adobe, Autodesk, EC-Council, and IMC2, among others.
We have established academic and educational partnerships with all the mentioned suppliers, and in the case of most, we stand as the exclusive partner in Croatia. Most qualification-acquiring educational programmes, as well as all higher education study programmes, are accredited by the Ministry of Science and Education, and thus recognized within the European Qualifications Framework (EQF) through its connection to the Croatian Qualifications Framework (CROQF). In addition to the academic focus, we are dedicated to science and applied research through the University Institute “Algebra LAB” and our research groups that bring together teachers and scientists employed at the University.
Our campus
The new campus covers almost 12,500 square meters gross and contains 35 lecture halls named after innovators and scientists such as Nikola Tesla, Steve Jobs, Ivan Lupis, Faust Vrančić, Ruđer Bošković, Slavoljub Penkala, Ivan Vučetić and the recently deceased professor emeritus Slavko Krajcar, the first rector of the University of Algebra.
