Programa de Mestrado em Gestão da Segurança da Informação

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.
