The Master’s programme in Cybersecurity is structured over two years and organised into four semesters, combining a strong theoretical foundation with extensive practical application. In the first semester, students build core knowledge in areas such as Cloud Computing, Computer Systems Security, Cybersecurity Management, Data Security, and Network Security, with the option to deepen their expertise in areas such as Data and Machine Learning or the Legal Aspects of Cybersecurity. The second semester strengthens technical skills through modules in Cryptography, Incident Management, Intrusion Tolerance, Network Traffic Analysis, and Software Security, complemented by the first hands-on Cybersecurity Laboratory project.

In the third semester, students engage in advanced applied work through Cybersecurity Laboratories 2 and participate in Seminars in Cybersecurity, while having the opportunity to specialise further by choosing optional modules such as Internet of Things Security or Digital Forensics Analysis. The programme culminates with a dissertation that spans the third and fourth semesters, enabling students to conduct independent research or develop a practical project in a specialised area of cybersecurity, under academic supervision.
