Imagine that technology is the language of the future. The Information Systems professional is the translator and architect of this language. They not only understand computers and programming, but know how to apply this technology to solve a company's challenges, optimize processes and create new opportunities.
In essence, they are the bridge between the complex world of technology and the strategic needs of the corporate world. Someone who understands people, processes and technology to make everything work better.
At Inteli, our aim is to train not just excellent technicians, but future leaders who will transform Brazil. This means going beyond the code, understanding the impact of technology on society and business.
Technology at the Service of Business
We often hear about artificial intelligence, Big Data or the Internet of Things (IoT), and it sounds like something out of a science fiction movie. But on the Information Systems course, you learn how to take these technologies off the drawing board and apply them in a practical way.
For example, with our Project-Based Learning (PBL) model, students face real demands from companies. I've seen groups developing digital games to solve organizational challenges, as in Module 01: Digital game, or creating web applications to optimize operations, as explored in Module 02: Application for web environment. It's impressive to see the creativity and problem-solving skills that emerge.
Another example is the development of IoT solutions, discussed in Module 04, where students learn how to connect devices to collect data and transform the way companies operate. Or the creation of predictive models using Deep Learning, as in Module 11, which helps companies anticipate market trends. All of this shows how technology is integrated into everyday business.
An IS professional needs to have a diverse set of skills: from in-depth technical knowledge of computing to management skills and socio-emotional competencies such as communication and collaboration. After all, you'll be dealing with data, systems and, above all, people.
The Market Scenario
The demand for technology professionals is high and growing. Reports from major institutions such as the World Economic Forum indicate that the adoption of new technologies will create more jobs than will be eliminated.
In Brazil, the Brazilian Association of Information and Communication Technology Companies (BRASSCOM) has identified a demand for almost 800,000 IT professionals by 2025. It's a market that offers significant opportunities for those with this strategic and technical vision.
For me, as a teacher, the greatest reward is seeing our students, from day one, involved in real projects, learning in practice how to turn ideas into solutions. They're not just studying; they're building the future, one prototype at a time.
