Abstract

Graph theory was founded with Euler's work in 1736. It is applied to numerous current real-world problems, such as social media networks, telecommunication networks, electrical networks etc. It is also used in web search engines and other important algorithms, especially in solving optimization problems. This paper will present theoretical basis and applications of graph theory used as a part of the two undergraduate professional studies at Virovitica University of Applied Sciences through courses that involve graph theory along with its applications. Learning outcomes and their evaluation will be presented. Also, students’ opinions on the courses will be discussed.

Keywords
