The curriculum of Cyber Security Engineering gives you the knowledge and skills necessary to make IT-systems malware-proof, as well as teach you which means to use against cyber-attacks.

The curriculum is broad-based and practically oriented, which means that all theoretical knowledge acquired in the courses is strongly supported by practical study. At least half of the course capacity is made up of labs or practice lessons, in which students can go through all the steps of setting up and securing the network and services of a company. Labs are mostly carried out by specialists of the field and many elective subjects help broaden general knowledge.

After graduating, you will be able to independently design, implement and maintain IT-systems that follow security requirements:

• you will understand the life span of an information system;
• you will master the basics of information system administration, including development and testing environments;
• you will know how to programme, test and implement an information system from the viewpoint of security and maintainability;
• you will know how to perform security testing for an information system based on set standards and the best practice;
• you will know how to implement processes guaranteeing the security of information systems and will be capable of taking part in developing and improving them;
• last but not least, you will follow ethical norms in your professional activity.
• The curriculum allows daytime learning and the teaching language is English.

Why this programme?

• The programme of Cyber Security Engineering is unique in its focus on cyber security – protecting organisation from online attacks in order for it to operate in a sustainable manner.
• Cyber security has become a major concern over the last few years as hackers have penetrated the IT infrastructures of governments and enterprises with increasing frequency and sophistication.
• The growth of mobile and IoT devices will increase exposure to cyber security hacks that demand experts to protect networks, hardware, and software from unauthorised access.
