As a bridge between science and technology, Informatics Engineering must not
overlook that it has significant theoretical and formal fundamentals, based on
mathematics, mainly on logic, formal languages and numerical methods.
During his/her formative years, the future informatics engineer –who
sometimes seems to lose itself into the mere learning of commercial tools use-
must receive a robust education on the fundamentals which make its discipline
an engineering, as more or less different from a technology or empirical craft.
This engineering owes its fundamentals to themes as: logic, numerical
methods, data structures, automata theory, algorithm theory, graph theory,
Shannon’s information theory, computational complexity, formal languages,
latest developments related to knowledge management, and many other fields.
