Specialisation
Specialisations are curricula that set out the requirements for graduation, such as compulsory courses.
Cybersecurity Management
The specialisation Cybersecurity Management takes into account the aspects of the overlap of computer processing outside of fixed system perimeters (e.g. with impact on critical infrastructures), reflected in the field of so-called cybersecurity and allowing a specific multidisciplinary overlap of both technical, social and legal aspects of cybersecurity.
Service Development Management
The specialization follows the current major shift from the traditional IT design paradigm to IT as a service and from a product-oriented to a service-oriented economy. IT problems and challenges are becoming more complex and knowledge of IT technologies is not sufficient to solve them. A multidisciplinary perspective is at the core of this specialization. Students not only acquire a good knowledge of IT (programming, databases, computer security, networks, etc.), but also the skills needed to understand problems in their complexity (marketing, management, finance or law) and the necessary communication competences.
