Master's degree
Study programmes
The master’s degree programme integrates in the fundamental field of Engineering Sciences, the field of graduate studies of Electronic Engineering, Telecommunications and Information Technology, the branch of science of Electrical Engineering, Electronics and Telecommunications. The teaching language is English.
The programme is mainly addressed to the graduates of a bachelor’s degree programme in the fields of Electronic Engineering, Telecommunications and Information Technology, Computers and Information Technology, Automation and Applied Informatics, Electrical Engineering and Computers and Computer Science, but can also be attended by graduates of similar study programmes.
The master’s programme will ensure the acquisition of skills and competencies for a professional / research career in the design and implementation of cyber security at organizational, local, national and regional level. The training of cybersecurity specialists will be based on the presentation of the concepts of cybersecurity, critical infrastructure, information security and the acquisition of practical skills in determining cyber security threats, risks and vulnerabilities and the rapid and efficient management of systems in the event of security incidents. We are the first university in the country to offer a master’s programme called Cyber Security with a content that meets the requirements of a modern and highly computerized society.
