Information Security and Cyberspace Law
We aim at providing an horizontal and large-spectrum body of training, compatible with previous training in distinct areas, but allowing for a deeper specialization optional in the predominant areas of Law, Information Management, Mathematics and Computer Science and Engineering. The threefold contribution of the proponent institutions is key not just for each specialized area, but also for the envisaged articulation between areas, allowing for a global view of the problems associated to information security and its applications.
It is intended that the MSc Programme in Information Security and Cyberspace Law be seen as a step in additional training for professionals with a special interest in the area, integrated in state organizations, regulatory bodies or companies, and not as an alternative to existing courses.
