Faculty of Traffic and Communications

What Faculty of Traffic and Communications does

The Faculty of Traffic and Communications (Fakultet za saobraćaj i komunikacije Univerziteta u Sarajevu, FSK) is a public higher-education institution operating as a constituent faculty of the University of Sarajevo, located at Zmaja od Bosne 8 in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Founded in 1977 and currently led by Dean Prof. Dr. Amel Kosovac, the faculty delivers three cycles of study (undergraduate, master's, doctoral) across two departments — the Department of Traffic (Road Traffic, Railway Traffic, Aviation Traffic) and the Department of Communications (Communications Technologies, Computer and Information Technologies, Postal-Logistics Technologies) — serving approximately 28 listed staff and producing a recorded 133 graduates in the 2019/2020 academic year.

Its core technical offering combines regulated academic degree programs with industry-recognized vocational certifications, notably the Cisco CCNA program (three semesters covering Introduction to Networks, routing, and switching) delivered through a physical networking laboratory with real equipment and simulators, and the Huawei ICT Academy program that in 2026 produced students qualifying for the European level of the Huawei ICT Competition. Teaching is supported by a Moodle-based e-learning platform (nastava.fsk.unsa.ba) and complemented by Erasmus+ mobility partnerships (PELMOB, DGTRANS), the Interreg IPA ADRION ASAP project on Adriatic marine protection, and the eUNSA portal.

FSK is a non-profit, government-funded entity. Tuition is regulated by the Canton of Sarajevo and structured across first-cycle, second-cycle, third-cycle, and self-financed (samofinansirajući) categories, while operating revenue is supplemented by EU project grants (Erasmus+, Interreg IPA ADRION), corporate scholarships (AS Holding, Mega-Trans d.o.o. Visoko), and industry partnerships (Symphony, Faculty of Transport Doboj). Customer segments are prospective high-school graduates, returning bachelor's holders seeking postgraduate study, and Bosnian employers hiring interns and graduates from the transportation, telecommunications, aviation, and postal-logistics sectors.

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• University of Sarajevo (other faculties): Parent institution containing complementary faculties (electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, IT) that compete for the same Bosnian student pool and share infrastructure and budget cycles.
• Budapest University of Technology and Economics: Hungary's leading technical university with transportation engineering and telecommunications programs. Comparable in being a public, applied-technical institution in the Central European region.
• Czech Technical University in Prague (Faculty of Transportation Sciences): Large Central European technical university with a transportation faculty offering similar multi-modal and ICT programs. Represents a more established, larger-scale benchmark for the discipline.

Direct peers

• Faculty of Traffic Engineering, University of Belgrade: Serbia's leading transport and traffic engineering faculty with parallel study programs in road, rail, air, postal, and communications. Direct competitor for regional talent and Erasmus+ mobility flows.
• Faculty of Transport and Traffic Sciences, University of Zagreb: Croatia's primary transport and traffic engineering faculty with comparable multi-modal coverage (road, rail, air, postal, communications). Closest comparable peer in the region in terms of academic scope and size.
• Faculty of Transport Doboj: Bosnia and Herzegovina traffic/transport faculty with overlapping curriculum in transportation and communications. FSK explicitly signed a business cooperation agreement with this faculty in 2021, indicating direct curriculum and programmatic overlap.
• Faculty of Maritime Studies and Transport, University of Ljubljana: Slovenian faculty combining transport, logistics, and communications-oriented programs. Comparable European higher-ed institution with similar disciplinary focus and Erasmus+ integration.

Regional players

• Ss. Cyril and Methodius University in Skopje: North Macedonia's primary public university with engineering faculties overlapping in traffic, telecommunications, and IT. Comparable public-funded regional university with similar student demographics.

Others

• Huawei ICT Academy: Huawei's global ICT training ecosystem with which FSK partners. Comparable as the certification backbone for FSK's Huawei ICT Academy program, providing curriculum and student competition pathways.
• Cisco Networking Academy: Global certification program that FSK runs locally. Comparable as the curriculum/content provider underlying FSK's CCNA track; a supplier/enabler rather than direct competitor.
