The Bachelor program in Computer Engineering and Science for Cybersecurity is specifically designed to provide a timely and effective response to the “skills shortage” in the field of cybersecurity. The degree program was therefore planned as a three-year course for training a technical specialist who is ready to start a career in the cybersecurity sector.
The degree provides immediate access to professional roles such as cybersecurity consultant, IT specialist for secure management of systems, networks, and critical infrastructures, as well as IT analyst for the development of secure applications.
The Bachelor’s degree Program in Computer Engineering and Sciences for Cybersecurity aims to provide future graduates with knowledge and skills in the field of system, data, and application security . Specifically, the study path is designed to train graduates who can address and manage cybersecurity issues by adopting a multidisciplinary approach that includes theoretical, methodological, and technological skills. The degree program guarantees both a solid foundational knowledge in the fields of mathematics and physics, and a strong methodological and experimental background in the disciplines of engineering and computer science. The aforementioned competencies are specialized in the context of cybersecurity of networked systems and infrastructures.
