Six years has passed since the first symposium "Computer at the University"
was held in 1974 on the occasion of the opening of the University Computing Centre
(SRCE).
During that time significant results have been recorded in the development of
Informatics in individual scientific disciplines and University education,
as well as in the organisation of associated labour. Of particular significance
is the education at the Universities of the Socialist Republic of Croatia and
elsewhere of a number of specialists in this field who now form a solid basis
for an even faster development of informatics.
The second symposium "Computer at the University" has once again brought together not only experts from this country but also from abroad which, no doubt, is an indicator of the range and of interest for results achieved over here. For these reasons the Republic Committee for Science, Technology and Information accepted the sponsorship of the Symposium with pleasure, and in the belief that an exchange of experiences and personal contacts among the participants will bring about a more extensive use of scientific achievements and technical expertise in the field of informatics which is becoming a notable factor in the development of the society.
