Peter Svec

Welcome to Peter Svec personal page

I am the assistant professor at the Department of Computer Science of Faculty of Natural Sciences at Constantine the Philosopher University in Nitra, and co-owner of the Teacher.sk, LTD


My primary research focuses on data mining and e-learning. My other research interests are in the areas of computer networks, operating systems and cyber security.

Personal information

I was born in Nitra (Slovakia) in 1981.

I graduated from Constantine the Philosopher University (UKF) in Nitra with my Master's Degree (Mgr.) in Physics and Computer Science in 2004.

In 2011, I received Doctoral Degree (Ph.D.) in Computer Science (Information systems) from University of Ostrava, Czech republic.

In 2012, I completed course English for Academic Purposes at Inlingua Manchester, UK.
