Content and structure
Our IT education combines theory and practice. The first 3 semesters take place at the business academy. Here, in the first year, you will receive an IT technology education, where you will encounter practice-oriented and realistic team teaching. Case and project work takes up more than classic blackboard teaching and the working methods reflect what you will encounter in the internship and later in the job.
In the third semester, you specialize in cyber security, and during the semester you will also be well prepared for both internships and future jobs through the subject Employability. In addition, you choose an elective subject that allows you to delve into a subject area that you are particularly interested in.
In the fourth and final semester, you will do an internship, where the knowledge, skills and competences of the last year and a half come into play and are tested. After the internship, the main assignment follows. Here you work with a concrete and relevant problem - usually from your internship company.
