The inauguration of a faculty focused on Applied Sciences as an independent element of Tomas Bata University in Zlín is the logical result of the University´s efforts to succeed in the Information Technology field. The Faculty of Applied Informatics (FAI) was established on 01.01.2006 through the transformation of the existing Institute for Process Control and Applied Informatics (IRPI) at the Faculty of Technology which, in turn, had been founded in the first half of 2004, and came into being through the restructuring of the Institute of Information Technology. The foundations of the latter institution was the Institute (formerly Department) of Automation and Control Technology, which had existed for more than 14 years at the Faculty of Technology at the time (The Department of Automation was established on 01.09.1986).
