Program Description

In today's complex environments, safeguarding an organization's information assets is difficult and requires more than solely technical skills. In order to facilitate a broad understanding of the field, our program includes courses considering organizational, social, and technical aspects of information security.

During the first year, students will gain a broad understanding of information security and develop advanced knowledge and skills in information security management. The second-year aims to develop advanced knowledge and skills in research and investigation. Students will learn how to develop and communicate knowledge within the field of study as well as increase their degree of reflection on research and practice within the field. Teaching is based on case-based learning and flipped classroom pedagogy. These pedagogical methods encourage students to active learning and to develop their problem-solving skills which are necessary to address the complexity of information security management in organizations. By working with cases developed in collaboration with our industry partners, the students gain a deeper understanding and practical field experience.

Our vision - the courage to review and the ability to evolve – forms the base of our everyday work. Our master students come from around the world, and benefit from close contact with other students, teachers, researchers and professors - our class sizes are never more than 30 students.

We offer high-quality international master’s programmes in a variety of disciplines: social science, communication, statistics, informatics, chemistry, robotics, medicine, physiology and economics.

We have two campuses - the main campus and our specialised medical campus. Both are well-connected to the city centre of Örebro, as well as being close to nature.

Örebro also has one of the widest-ranging selections of sports and events available in any city in Sweden, and is enviably located - Stockholm, Gothenburg and even Oslo can be reached directly from Örebro.

We have a range of departments set up to help you from registering interest to registering for study. As a prospective student, you can get direct help with the application process; once accepted, we offer dedicated support with accommodation, visa queries and more. When you arrive in Örebro, you will be greeted by our Student Support team, who organise a comprehensive introduction programme for new arrivals.
