<br />
== Ideas for additional courses during fall ==<br />
<br />
Observe that the first semester is <i>relatively</i> easy. It makes a lot of sense to take additional elective courses at the first semester. <br />
<br />
The following suggested courses can be counted as optional courses in the Specialization module of your curricula. They will appear as free choice course initially, but can be moved to Specialization module after you get a grade.<br />
<br />
Initial suggestions for courses in addition to the main course schedule are different for people with/without IT background. In the first case, get intro courses (generic intro, very basic programming and very basic networking). In the second case, take additional non-intro courses or do some courses (or replacements) in advance. <br />
<br />
=== Independent of background ===<br />
<br />
* ITV8040 Network Technology I (6 EAP) (strongly recommended) <br />
** Lecures on Monday 12.00 (from week 2). <br />
** Labs on Monday 14.30/16.00 IT College Cisco lab room 415. <br />
** It is basically a CCNA Semester 1+2 course for Cybersecurity program<br />
** It is suitable for students with no background in networking<br />
** Good prerequisite course for MTAT.08.004 Network Technology 2 on semester 2 and ITV8060 Computer Network Security on semester 3<br />

** Lectures in Estonian, but it is possible to have it as a self-study course and get all the needed resources from the professor<br />
** Good prerequisite for the cryptography courses in semester 2 in Tartu<br />
<br />
<br />
=== People with no/little IT background ===<br />
<br />
You need to get some general IT background, very basic programming competence and intro to networking. <br />

<br />
* Programming: two options, start in parallel, then choose which (or both) to pursue:<br />
** Partially self-study option: start http://math.hws.edu/javanotes/ and enroll to the comprehensive [http://www.lambda.ee/index.php/ITI0011 programming course based on java (ITI0011)] programming course based on the book. The lectures are in Estonian (no point in attending unless you understand Estonian) but you can receive labwork in English and do the labs in English (choose a suitable labtime once per week from OIS and talk to lab instructors). In case you have no programming background, you'll simply have to do additional excercises from the book to get to the level required by the labs (doable). NB! For students speaking Estonian, just attend the [http://www.lambda.ee/index.php/ITI0011 iti0011 course] as regular student, attend lectures etc (obviously, you'll still have to do additional excercises from the book).<br />

<br />
You can look for additional free choice courses from the following sources<br />
<br />
Scan the [http://ois.ttu.ee/pls/portal/ois2.ois_public.main OIS study portal] for available courses this fall (takes effort, but it is useful to learn to find your way in OIS). You can find all the courses given in English (timetables of all international programs) in TUT by looking at OIS -> Timetables -> click to GB flag in the center of the page.<br />
<br />
You can take some other language course (French, German, Russian, Finnish) offered by the [http://www.ttu.ee/faculty-of-social-sciences/language-centre-2/ Language Centre] in addition to the courses (HLI2200, HLX8040) in your curricula.

<br />
=== ITX8511 Practical Training in Information Technology ===<br />
You can get credit for ITI8511 if you have working experience in IT field. To get the credit you have to:<br />
* have a working experience equivalent for at least 3 months of full-time job.<br />
* fill an application in OIS (Applications -> Acceptance of practice). You cannot declare it as an ordinary course.<br />
* ask your employer to fill the [http://www.ttu.ee/public/i/infotehnoloogia-teaduskond/vormid/Praktika_toend_2010.doc form] (form is in Estonian).<br />

== Writing a Thesis ==<br />
<br />
=== Topic and advisor ===<br />
Almost any professor and lecturer you have met in your curricula can act as an advisor of you thesis. Some of them have some open problems suitable for doing research and writing a thesis, but many don't have a topic to offer. It is usually more helpful to have an initial idea of a topic of your thesis and ask someone with interests in the related field to advise you. You can have an advisor not related to the university, but he can act only as a co-advisor and you need to agree to somebody related to the curricula or the [http://www.ttu.ee/department-of-computer-science|leading institute] of the curricula to be an official advisor.<br />
<br />
[[Cyber_security_thesis_topics | More potential advisors and topics]]<br />
<br />
=== Formal Requirements and recommendations ===<br />
There are no strict rules on formatting your thesis. Some general advices that are good to follow for a master thesis:<br />
* a title page, an author declaration, an annotation in english and estonian, a list of contents, and references are required in the thesis<br />
* around 50 pages + appendixes if needed<br />
* Times New Roman (or similar), font size 12, 1.5 spacing used for the ordinary text<br />
* headings are numbered and no more than 3 levels used<br />
* 2 copies are submitted, you will get one back afterwards.<br />
<br />
'''The [http://www.lambda.ee/wiki/ITX8045 Cyber Security Seminar] is designed to provide advice on the thesis requirements and writing process to Cyber Security Master's students.<br />

== Writing a Thesis ==<br />
<br />
=== Topic and advisor ===<br />
Almost any professor and lecturer you have met in your curricula can act as an advisor of you thesis. Some of them have some open problems suitable for doing research and writing a thesis, but many don't have a topic to offer. It is usually more helpful to have an initial idea of a topic of your thesis and ask someone with interests in the related field to advise you. You can have an advisor not related to the university, but he can act only as a co-advisor and you need to agree to somebody related to the curricula or the [http://www.ttu.ee/department-of-computer-science|leading institute] of the curricula to be an official advisor.<br />
<br />
[[Cyber_security_thesis_topics | More potential advisors and topics]]<br />
<br />
=== Formal Requirements and recommendations ===<br />
There are no strict rules on formatting your thesis. Some general advices that are good to follow for a master thesis:<br />
* a title page, an author declaration, an annotation in english and estonian, a list of contents, and references are required in the thesis<br />
* around 50 pages + appendixes if needed<br />
* Times New Roman (or similar), font size 12, 1.5 spacing used for the ordinary text<br />
* headings are numbered and no more than 3 levels used<br />
* 2 copies are submitted, you will get one back afterwards. <br />
<br />
=== Dates (2012) ===<br />
* May 28 deadline for application of defending the thesis<br />
* June 1, 12.00, submission of the thesis (two copies to IT-225)<br />
* June 11 (and June 8 if needed) defenses of the thesis (presentation 15-20 minutes + discussion)<br />
* After defense, please, visit Dean's Office for more information about final formalities<br />
* June 20-22 final ceremony<br />
* [http://lab.cs.ttu.ee/theses Upload your thesis if you would like to have it public]<br />
Your advisor may have different suggestions, but if they don't say anything then you should plan to have a first draft ready by the end of April.<br />

<br />
== Ideas for additional courses during fall ==<br />
<br />
Observe that the first semester is <i>relatively</i> easy. It makes a lot of sense to take additional elective courses at the first semester. <br />
<br />
The following suggested courses can be counted as optional courses in the Specialization module of your curricula. They will appear as free choice course initially, but can be moved to Specialization module after you get a grade.<br />
<br />
Initial suggestions for courses in addition to the main course schedule are different for people with/without IT background. In the first case, get intro courses (generic intro, very basic programming and very basic networking). In the second case, take additional non-intro courses or do some courses (or replacements) in advance. <br />
<br />
=== Independent of background ===<br />
<br />
* ITV8040 Network Technology I (6 EAP) (strongly recommended) <br />
** Lecures on Monday 12.00 (from week 2). <br />
** Labs on Monday 14.30/16.00 IT College Cisco lab room 415. <br />
** It is basically a CCNA Semester 1+2 course for Cybersecurity program<br />
** It is suitable for students with no background in networking<br />
** Good prerequisite course for MTAT.08.004 Network Technology 2 on semester 2 and ITV8060 Computer Network Security on semester 3<br />

** Lectures in Estonian, but it is possible to have it as a self-study course and get all the needed resources from the professor<br />
** Good prerequisite for the cryptography courses in semester 2 in Tartu<br />

In case you have no programming background, you'll simply have to do additional excercises from the book to get to the level required by the labs (doable). NB!

== Writing a Thesis ==<br />
<br />
=== Topic and advisor ===<br />
Almost any professor and lecturer you have met in your curricula can act as an advisor of you thesis. Some of them have some open problems suitable for doing research and writing a thesis, but many don't have a topic to offer. It is usually more helpful to have an initial idea of a topic of your thesis and ask someone with interests in the related field to advise you. You can have an advisor not related to the university, but he can act only as a co-advisor and you need to agree to somebody related to the curricula or the [http://www.ttu.ee/department-of-computer-science|leading institute] of the curricula to be an official advisor.<br />
<br />
[[Cyber_security_thesis_topics | More potential advisors and topics]]<br />
<br />
=== Formal Requirements and recommendations ===<br />
There are no strict rules on formatting your thesis. Some general advices that are good to follow for a master thesis:<br />
* a title page, an author declaration, an annotation in english and estonian, a list of contents, and references are required in the thesis<br />
* around 50 pages + appendixes if needed<br />
* Times New Roman (or similar), font size 12, 1.5 spacing used for the ordinary text<br />
* headings are numbered and no more than 3 levels used<br />
* 2 copies are submitted, you will get one back afterwards. <br />
<br />
=== Dates (2012) ===<br />
* May 28 deadline for application of defending the thesis<br />
* June 1, 12.00, submission of the thesis (two copies to IT-225)<br />
* June 11 (and June 8 if needed) defenses of the thesis (presentation 15-20 minutes + discussion)<br />
* After defense, please, visit Dean's Office for more information about final formalities<br />
* June 20-22 final ceremony<br />
* [http://lab.cs.ttu.ee/theses Upload your thesis if you would like to have it public]<br />
Your advisor may have different suggestions, but if they don't say anything then you should plan to have a first draft ready by the end of April.<br />

=== Cisco Academy networking courses ===<br />
Cybersecurity students have a possibility to attend one of the following courses on Spring semester and we hope to have the same possibility available in the following semesters also:<br />
<br />
* ITV8060 Computer Network Security (4 EAP) <br />
** Starts from the beginning of April. The proposed time for lecture is on Wednesdays at 8.15 and lab on Friday at 14. Please let us know if you plan to take the course, but it collides with other courses in Tartu.<br />
** It is basically a CCNA Security course for Cybersecurity program<br />
** It is suitable for students with some networking background and command-line experience<br />
* ITV8040 Network Technology I (6 EAP) <br />
** Lecures on Tuesday 14.00 in X-406 at TUT (TTÜ). <br />
** Labs on Friday 12.00 ITC Cisco lab room 415. <br />
** It is basically a CCNA Semester 1+2 course for Cybersecurity program<br />
** It is suitable for students with no background in networking<br />
<br />
It will be counted as an optional course in the Specialization module. It will be a free choice course initially, but moved to Specialization module after you get a grade.<br />
<br />
Declaration of the courses is opened. OIS may give a warning that you have to pay for the course. You can ignore this. The payment order is cancelled for one course for everybody in the IVCM program.<br />
<br />
The courses are given by Truls Tuxen Ringkjob. Labs will take place in Cisco lab at ITC. <br />

<br />
== Ideas for additional courses during fall ==<br />
<br />
Observe that the first semester is <i>relatively</i> easy. It makes a lot of sense to take additional elective courses at the first semester. <br />
<br />
The following suggested courses can be counted as optional courses in the Specialization module of your curricula. They will appear as free choice course initially, but can be moved to Specialization module after you get a grade.<br />
<br />
Initial suggestions for courses in addition to the main course schedule are different for people with/without IT background. In the first case, get intro courses (generic intro, very basic programming and very basic networking). In the second case, take additional non-intro courses or do some courses (or replacements) in advance. <br />
<br />
=== Independent of background ===<br />
<br />
* ITV8040 Network Technology I (6 EAP) (strongly recommended) <br />
** Lecures on Monday 12.00 (from week 2). <br />
** Labs on Monday 14.30/16.00 IT College Cisco lab room 415. <br />
** It is basically a CCNA Semester 1+2 course for Cybersecurity program<br />
** It is suitable for students with no background in networking<br />
** Good prerequisite course for MTAT.08.004 Network Technology 2 on semester 2 and ITV8060 Computer Network Security on semester 3<br />
<br />
* [https://ois.ttu.ee/portal/page?_pageid=35,435155&_dad=portal&_schema=PORTAL&i=2&a=1&q=4&b=1&c=-1&d=-1&e=-1&e_sem=101&g=139&h=2 IDS0020] Introduction to Cryptography<br />
** Lectures in Estonian, but it is possible to have it as a self-study course and get all the needed resources from the professor<br />
** Good prerequisite for the cryptography courses in semester 2 in Tartu<br />
<br />
<br />
=== People with no/little IT background ===<br />
<br />
You need to get some general IT background, very basic programming competence and intro to networking. <br />
<br />
* General<br />
** [https://ois.ttu.ee/portal/page?_pageid=35,435155&_dad=portal&_schema=PORTAL&i=2&a=1&q=4&b=1&c=-1&d=-1&e=-1&e_sem=101&g=35&h=2 ITX0025] - Introduction to Information Technology (with Endre Domiczi)<br />
<br />
* Programming: two options, start in parallel, then choose which (or both) to pursue:<br />
** Partially self-study option: start http://math.hws.edu/javanotes/ and enroll to the comprehensive [http://www.lambda.ee/index.php/ITI0011 programming course based on java (ITI0011)] programming course based on the book.

== Writing a Thesis ==<br />
<br />
=== Topic and advisor ===<br />
Almost any professor and lecturer you have met in your curricula can act as an advisor of you thesis. Some of them have some open problems suitable for doing research and writing a thesis, but many don't have a topic to offer. It is usually more helpful to have an initial idea of a topic of your thesis and ask someone with interests in the related field to advise you. You can have an advisor not related to the university, but he can act only as a co-advisor and you need to agree to somebody related to the curricula or the [http://www.ttu.ee/department-of-computer-science|leading institute] of the curricula to be an official advisor.<br />
<br />
[[Cyber_security_thesis_topics | More potential advisors and topics]]<br />
<br />
=== Formal Requirements and recommendations ===<br />
There are no strict rules on formatting your thesis. Some general advices that are good to follow for a master thesis:<br />
* a title page, an author declaration, an annotation in english and estonian, a list of contents, and references are required in the thesis<br />
* around 50 pages + appendixes if needed<br />
* Times New Roman (or similar), font size 12, 1.5 spacing used for the ordinary text<br />
* headings are numbered and no more than 3 levels used<br />
* 2 copies are submitted, you will get one back afterwards. <br />
<br />
=== Dates (2012) ===<br />
* May 28 deadline for application of defending the thesis<br />
* June 1, 12.00, submission of the thesis (two copies to IT-225)<br />
* June 11 (and June 8 if needed) defenses of the thesis (presentation 15-20 minutes + discussion)<br />
* After defense, please, visit Dean's Office for more information about final formalities<br />
* June 20-22 final ceremony<br />
* [http://lab.cs.ttu.ee/theses Upload your thesis if you would like to have it public]<br />
Your advisor may have different suggestions, but if they don't say anything then you should plan to have a first draft ready by the end of April.<br />

== Ideas for additional courses during fall 2011 ==<br />
<br />
Observe that the first semester is <i>relatively</i> easy. It makes a lot of sense to take additional elective courses at the first semester. <br />
<br />
The following suggested courses can be counted as optional courses in the Specialization module of your curricula. They will appear as free choice course initially, but can be moved to Specialization module after you get a grade.<br />
<br />
Initial suggestions for courses in addition to the main course schedule are different for people with/without IT background. In the first case, get intro courses (generic intro, very basic programming and very basic networking). In the second case, take additional non-intro courses or do some courses (or replacements) in advance. <br />

<br />
<br />
Observe that the first semester is <i>relatively</i> easy. It makes a lot of sense to take additional elective courses at the first semester. <br />
<br />
== Ideas for additional courses during fall 2011 ==<br />
<br />
Initial suggestions for courses in addition to the main course schedule are different for people with/without IT background. In the first case, get intro courses (generic intro, very basic programming and very basic networking). In the second case, take additional non-intro courses or do some courses (or replacements) in advance. <br />
<br />
=== Independent of background ===<br />
<br />
* ITV8040 Network Technology I (6 EAP) (strongly recommended) <br />
** Lecures on Monday 12.00 (from week 2). <br />
** Labs on Monday 14.30/16.00 IT College Cisco lab room 415. <br />
** It is basically a CCNA Semester 1+2 course for Cybersecurity program<br />
** It is suitable for students with no background in networking<br />
** Good prerequisite course for MTAT.08.004 Network Technology 2 on semester 2 and ITV8060 Computer Network Security on semester 3<br />

** Lectures in Estonian, but it is possible to have it as a self-study course and get all the needed resources from the professor<br />
** Good prerequisite for the cryptography courses in semester 2 in Tartu<br />
<br />
<br />
=== People with no/little IT background ===<br />

The lectures are in Estonian (no point in attending unless you understand Estonian) but you can receive labwork in English and do the labs in English (choose a suitable labtime once per week from OIS and talk to lab instructors). In case you have no programming background, you'll simply have to do additional excercises from the book to get to the level required by the labs (doable). NB! For students speaking Estonian, just attend the [http://www.lambda.ee/index.php/ITI0011 iti0011 course] as regular student, attend lectures etc (obviously, you'll still have to do additional excercises from the book).<br />

** See the TVTM11 schedule link under the "T-School of Economics and Business Administration of TUT" block in the timetable in OIS. It has turned out that some of the courses belonging to this program can be studied only for additional fee (OIS will warn you when it is the case).<br />
** You may contact the Economics and Business Administration international studies counselor Siyi Ma (phone 620 3940, room X-247) for additional details about the courses <br />
<br />
* Tartu: Cryptology I. Requires good math background. See [http://vvv.cs.ut.ee/~peeter_l/teaching/kryptoi10s/ course page] and contact Peeter Laud (peeter_l@ut.ee) for questions about possible distance learning, replacing lab time on Thursdays etc.<br />
<br />
* See the IVSM schedule link under the "I-Faculty of Information Technology" block in the timetable in OIS: these are courses for the first-year international master studies in software engineering and could be an interesting option. The software engineering program coordinator is Jüri Vain (vain@ioc.ee, phone 620 4190): you may want to check with him for the available/suitable courses in that program.<br />
<br />
* The [http://itcollege.ee/?url=overview IT College] (building located close to the IT dept building) offers very good CISCO academy network administration courses. Contact the [http://itcollege.ee/?url=overview IT College] for the exact schedule and availability. Some of these courses are a suitable replacement for networking/administration courses at the second semester in Tartu. However, the IT College/CISCO courses are not part of the Uni of Tech curriculum, hence you would have to pay for these courses yourself.<br />
<br />
* Some of the second-year cybersec courses might be suitable if you have enough IT background and there is no time overlap with you main courses. Check the schedule http://www.lambda.ee/index.php/Cyber_security_2010_second_year and in case of interest, talk (email) to the lecturers and ask about the required background and possibility to enroll.

<br />
<br />
== Ideas for additional courses during fall 2011 ==<br />
<br />
Initial suggestions for courses in addition to the main course schedule are different for people with/without IT background. In the first case, get intro courses (generic intro, very basic programming and very basic networking). In the second case, take additional non-intro courses or do some courses (or replacements) in advance. <br />
<br />
=== People with no/little IT background ===<br />
<br />
You need to get some general IT background, very basic programming competence and intro to networking. Please tell the program coordinators about your background and we will put some suggestions about elective courses on this page.<br />
<br />

<br />
* Programming: two options, start in parallel, then choose which (or both) to pursue:<br />
** Partially self-study option: start http://math.hws.edu/javanotes/ and enroll to the comprehensive [http://www.lambda.ee/index.php/ITI0011 programming course based on java (ITI0011)] programming course based on the book. The lectures are in Estonian (no point in attending unless you understand Estonian) but you can receive labwork in English and do the labs in English (choose a suitable labtime once per week from OIS and talk to lab instructors). In case you have no programming background, you'll simply have to do additional excercises from the book to get to the level required by the labs (doable). NB! For students speaking Estonian, just attend the [http://www.lambda.ee/index.php/ITI0011 iti0011 course] as regular student, attend lectures etc (obviously, you'll still have to do additional excercises from the book).<br />

However, the IT College/CISCO courses are not part of the Uni of Tech curriculum, hence you would have to pay for these courses yourself.<br />
<br />
* Some of the second-year cybersec courses might be suitable if you have enough IT background and there is no time overlap with you main courses. Check the schedule http://www.lambda.ee/index.php/Cyber_security_2010_second_year and in case of interest, talk (email) to the lecturers and ask about the required background and possibility to enroll.

* ITV8060 Computer Network Security (4 EAP) <br />
** Starts from the beginning of April. The proposed time for lecture is on Wednesdays at 8.15 and lab on Friday at 14. Please let us know if you plan to take the course, but it collides with other courses in Tartu.<br />
** It is basically a CCNA Security course for Cybersecurity program<br />
** It is suitable for students with some networking background and command-line experience<br />
* ITV8040 Network Technology I (6 EAP) <br />
** Lecures on Tuesday 14.00 in X-406 at TUT (TTÜ). <br />
** Labs on Friday 12.00 ITC Cisco lab room 415. <br />
** It is basically a CCNA Semester 1+2 course for Cybersecurity program<br />
** It is suitable for students with no background in networking<br />
<br />
It will be counted as an optional course in the Specialization module. It will be a free choice course initially, but moved to Specialization module after you get a grade.<br />
<br />
Declaration of the courses is opened. OIS may give a warning that you have to pay for the course. You can ignore this. The payment order is cancelled for one course for everybody in the IVCM program.<br />
<br />
The courses are given by Truls Tuxen Ringkjob. Labs will take place in Cisco lab at ITC. <br />

<br />
<br />
<!--<br />
== Observations and suggestions ==<br />
<br />
Observe that the first semester is <i>relatively</i> easy. It makes a lot of sense to take additional elective courses at the first semester. See the ideas below and scan the [http://ois.ttu.ee/pls/portal/ois2.ois_public.main OIS study portal] for available courses this fall (takes effort, but it is useful to learn to find your way in OIS). You can find all the courses given in English (timetables of all international programs) in TUT by looking at OIS -> Timetables -> click to GB flag in the center of the page.<br />
<br />
In particular, cybersec elective courses of cryptology at Tartu are a good choice for people interested in tech and math!<br />
<br />
You are supposed to declare your courses for the first semester during the first half of september, using the [http://ois.ttu.ee/pls/portal/ois2.ois_public.main OIS study portal]. <br />
Contact the study administration people at IT-235 Raja 15, 12618 Tallinn, phone 6203528, email i@ttu.ee for necessary passwords <br />
and for any other kinds of technical administrative help!<br />
<br />
If for some reason you cannot declare a course in time, do not despair: <br />
it is ok to start the study without declaring all courses immediately.<br />
<br />
<b>NB!</b> It will take time to get the OIS passwords for international students. Understandably you cannot declare your courses in OIS until that, meaning that is OK to declare them later.<br />
<br />
== Ideas for additional courses during fall 2011 ==<br />
<br />
Initial suggestions for courses in addition to the main course schedule are different for people with/without IT background. In the first case, get intro courses (generic intro, very basic programming and very basic networking). In the second case, take additional non-intro courses or do some courses (or replacements) in advance. <br />
<br />
=== People with no/little IT background ===<br />
<br />
You need to get some general IT background, very basic programming competence and intro to networking. Please tell the program coordinators about your background and we will put some suggestions about elective courses on this page.<br />
<br />
* General<br />
** ITX0025 - Introduction to Information Technology (Endre Domiczi), lectures odd weeks Wednesday 08:00-09:30 room IT-140, labs even weeks Wednesday 08:00-09:30 room IT-213D+H .<br />
<br />
* Programming: two options, start in parallel, then choose which (or both) to pursue:<br />
** Partially self-study option: start http://math.hws.edu/javanotes/ and enroll to the comprehensive [http://www.lambda.ee/index.php/ITI0011 programming course based on java (ITI0011)] programming course based on the book. The lectures are in Estonian (no point in attending unless you understand Estonian) but you can receive labwork in English and do the labs in English (choose a suitable labtime once per week from OIS and talk to lab instructors). In case you have no programming background, you'll simply have to do additional excercises from the book to get to the level required by the labs (doable). NB! For students speaking Estonian, just attend the [http://www.lambda.ee/index.php/ITI0011 iti0011 course] as regular student, attend lectures etc (obviously, you'll still have to do additional excercises from the book).<br />
** IDK1011 (in English) - Introduction to Programming. It is a soft start to programming.<br />
<br />
--><br />
<br />
<!--<br />
* Networking<br />
** Wait for Peeter to come back with Tartu suggestions.<br />
** Contact Truls Ringkjob at it college and ask about possible netw intro courses this fall (might happen, if you find a suitable one, verify with T.Tammet that it is OK): Truls Ringkjob, Truls.Ringkjob AT itcollege.ee, phone 6 285 848<br />
<br />
--><br />
<!--<br />
=== People with an IT background ===<br />
<br />
* Possible replacements for Tallinn spring business administration courses:<br />
<br />
** See the TVTM11 schedule link under the "T-School of Economics and Business Administration of TUT" block in the timetable in OIS. It has turned out that some of the courses belonging to this program can be studied only for additional fee (OIS will warn you when it is the case).<br />
** You may contact the Economics and Business Administration international studies counselor Siyi Ma (phone 620 3940, room X-247) for additional details about the courses <br />
<br />
* Tartu: Cryptology I. Requires good math background. See [http://vvv.cs.ut.ee/~peeter_l/teaching/kryptoi10s/ course page] and contact Peeter Laud (peeter_l@ut.ee) for questions about possible distance learning, replacing lab time on Thursdays etc.<br />
<br />
* See the IVSM schedule link under the "I-Faculty of Information Technology" block in the timetable in OIS: these are courses for the first-year international master studies in software engineering and could be an interesting option. The software engineering program coordinator is Jüri Vain (vain@ioc.ee, phone 620 4190): you may want to check with him for the available/suitable courses in that program.<br />
<br />
* The [http://itcollege.ee/?url=overview IT College] (building located close to the IT dept building) offers very good CISCO academy network administration courses. Contact the [http://itcollege.ee/?url=overview IT College] for the exact schedule and availability. Some of these courses are a suitable replacement for networking/administration courses at the second semester in Tartu. However, the IT College/CISCO courses are not part of the Uni of Tech curriculum, hence you would have to pay for these courses yourself.<br />
<br />
* Some of the second-year cybersec courses might be suitable if you have enough IT background and there is no time overlap with you main courses. Check the schedule http://www.lambda.ee/index.php/Cyber_security_2010_second_year and in case of interest, talk (email) to the lecturers and ask about the required background and possibility to enroll. The classes are quite popular and it may happen that there are no places left for the first year students.<br />

Almost any professor and lecturer you have met in your curricula can act as an advisor of you thesis. Some of them have some open problems suitable for doing research and writing a thesis, but many don't have a topic to offer. It is usually more helpful to have an initial idea of a topic of your thesis and ask someone with interests in the related field to advise you. You can have an advisor not related to the university, but he can act only as a co-advisor and you need to agree to somebody related to the curricula or the [http://www.ttu.ee/department-of-computer-science|leading institute] of the curricula to be an official advisor.<br />
<br />
[[Cyber_security_thesis_topics | More potential advisors and topics]]<br />

=== Formal Requirements and recommendations ===<br />
There are no strict rules on formatting your thesis. Some general advices that are good to follow for a master thesis:<br />
* a title page, an author declaration, an annotation in english and estonian, a list of contents, and references are required in the thesis<br />
* around 50 pages + appendixes if needed<br />
* Times New Roman (or similar), font size 12, 1.5 spacing used for the ordinary text<br />
* headings are numbered and no more than 3 levels used<br />
* 2 copies are submitted, you will get one back afterwards. <br />
<br />
=== Dates (2012) ===<br />
* May 28 deadline for application of defending the thesis<br />
* June 1, 12.00, submission of the thesis (two copies to IT-225)<br />
* June 11 (and June 8 if needed) defenses of the thesis (presentation 15-20 minutes + discussion)<br />
* After defense, please, visit Dean's Office for more information about final formalities<br />
* June 20-22 final ceremony<br />
* [http://lab.cs.ttu.ee/theses Upload your thesis if you would like to have it public]<br />

=== Topic and advisor ===<br />
Almost any professor and lecturer you have met in your curricula can act as an advisor of you thesis. Some of them have some open problems suitable for doing research and writing a thesis, but many don't have a topic to offer. It is usually more helpful to have an initial idea of a topic of your thesis and ask someone with interests in the related field to advise you. You can have an advisor not related to the university, but he can act only as a co-advisor and you need to agree to somebody related to the curricula or the [http://www.ttu.ee/department-of-computer-science|leading institute] of the curricula to be an official advisor.<br />

You can look at the research background of the potential advisors at the [https://www.etis.ee/portaal/isikud.aspx?lang=en Estonian Research Portal] if you don't know the people from the courses. Many of the listed above are in the different fields of cryptography.<br />
<br />
<br />
== Proposed topics for thesis ==<br />
<br />
=== Secure e-mail communication for Web shops ===<br />
Advisor: Andres Ojamaa (andres.ojamaa@cs.ioc.ee)<br />
<br />
The majority of present Web shops send confirmations of orders and other<br />
communication via unencrypted e-mail. However, these letters may contain and<br />
reveal sensitive information, such as the customer's home address, parcel<br />
tracking numbers or personal preferences. The goal of this project is to<br />
propose a general solution for protecting (security conscious) customers'<br />
privacy in Web shops by using e-mail encryption. In addition, a<br />
proof-of-concept implementation based on a free open source e-commerce<br />
platform should be developed. The proposed solution can employ existing<br />
standards and technologies, such as OpenPGP and GnuPG.<br />
<br />
<br />
=== Network traffic generation for cyber defence exercises ===<br />
Advisor: Andres Ojamaa (andres.ojamaa@cs.ioc.ee)<br />
<br />
Cyber defence exercises need a lab environment that resembles a typical real<br />
world set-up as closely as possible. This includes infrastructure, such as<br />
computer networks, SCADA systems, operating systems, applications and server<br />
software, but also simulated network traffic. The characteristics of<br />
simulated traffic should look realistic to make the exercise challenging.<br />
This project includes developing and implementing software tools, for example,<br />
a web browser add-on module, to be used in such exercises to simulate<br />
realistic network traffic. This project may integrate traffic models<br />
published in the literature, and build on the results of initial prototyping.<br />
<br />
<br />
=== Interactive hybrid network simulation based on Rich Components ===<br />
Advisor: Andres Ojamaa (andres.ojamaa@cs.ioc.ee)<br />
<br />
Large-scale computer network simulation is a computationally heavy task. To<br />
alleviate this, hybrid network simulations may be utilized that combine packet<br />
level and flow based simulation techniques for achieving an acceptable<br />
trade-off between performance and accuracy. Furthermore, interactivity of<br />
simulations makes experimentation and exploration of possible parameter space<br />
more efficient and fun. The goal of this project is to develop a large<br />
computer network model for simulating and analysing network traffic generated<br />
by malware outbreaks, botnets etc. The model would be based on powerful<br />
software components -- rich components -- that support visual programming,<br />
automatic synthesis of programs and interactivity of hybrid simulations. This<br />
project is based on and extends preliminary results from earlier promising<br />
experiments.</div>Kaarameeshttp://www.lambda.ee/w/index.php?title=Cyber_security_2011_second_year&diff=6720Cyber security 2011 second year2012-02-21T12:58:37Z<p>Kaaramees: </p>

== Writing a Thesis ==<br />
<br />
=== Topic and advisor ===<br />
Almost any professor and lecturer you have met in your curricula can act as an advisor of you thesis. Some of them have some open problems suitable for doing research and writing a thesis, but many don't have a topic to offer. It is usually more helpful to have an initial idea of a topic of your thesis and ask someone with interests in the related field to advise you. You can have an advisor not related to the university, but he can act only as a co-advisor and you need to agree to somebody related to the curricula or the [http://www.ttu.ee/department-of-computer-science|leading institute] of the curricula to be an official advisor.<br />
<br />
=== Formal Requirements and recommendations ===<br />
There are no strict rules on formatting your thesis. Some general advices that are good to follow for a master thesis:<br />
* a title page, an author declaration, an annotation in english and estonian, a list of contents, and references are required in the thesis<br />
* around 50 pages + appendixes if needed<br />
* Times New Roman (or similar) font with size 12 used for the ordinary text<br />
* headings are numbered and no more than 3 levels<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<!--<br />
=== ITX8041 Legal Aspects of Cyber Security ===<br />
The first lecture of the course is on Oct 6 17:45 at III-302. The future plans will be agreed in the lecture, there will be some changes in the timetable probably.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<!--<br />
== Observations and suggestions ==<br />
<br />
Observe that the first semester is <i>relatively</i> easy. It makes a lot of sense to take additional elective courses at the first semester. See the ideas below and scan the [http://ois.ttu.ee/pls/portal/ois2.ois_public.main OIS study portal] for available courses this fall (takes effort, but it is useful to learn to find your way in OIS). You can find all the courses given in English (timetables of all international programs) in TUT by looking at OIS -> Timetables -> click to GB flag in the center of the page.<br />
<br />
In particular, cybersec elective courses of cryptology at Tartu are a good choice for people interested in tech and math!<br />
<br />
You are supposed to declare your courses for the first semester during the first half of september, using the [http://ois.ttu.ee/pls/portal/ois2.ois_public.main OIS study portal]. <br />
Contact the study administration people at IT-235 Raja 15, 12618 Tallinn, phone 6203528, email i@ttu.ee for necessary passwords <br />
and for any other kinds of technical administrative help!<br />
<br />
If for some reason you cannot declare a course in time, do not despair: <br />
it is ok to start the study without declaring all courses immediately.<br />
<br />
<b>NB!</b> It will take time to get the OIS passwords for international students. Understandably you cannot declare your courses in OIS until that, meaning that is OK to declare them later.<br />
<br />
== Ideas for additional courses during fall 2011 ==<br />
<br />
Initial suggestions for courses in addition to the main course schedule are different for people with/without IT background. In the first case, get intro courses (generic intro, very basic programming and very basic networking). In the second case, take additional non-intro courses or do some courses (or replacements) in advance. <br />
<br />
=== People with no/little IT background ===<br />
<br />
You need to get some general IT background, very basic programming competence and intro to networking. Please tell the program coordinators about your background and we will put some suggestions about elective courses on this page.<br />
<br />
* General<br />
** ITX0025 - Introduction to Information Technology (Endre Domiczi), lectures odd weeks Wednesday 08:00-09:30 room IT-140, labs even weeks Wednesday 08:00-09:30 room IT-213D+H .<br />
<br />
* Programming: two options, start in parallel, then choose which (or both) to pursue:<br />
** Partially self-study option: start http://math.hws.edu/javanotes/ and enroll to the comprehensive [http://www.lambda.ee/index.php/ITI0011 programming course based on java (ITI0011)] programming course based on the book. The lectures are in Estonian (no point in attending unless you understand Estonian) but you can receive labwork in English and do the labs in English (choose a suitable labtime once per week from OIS and talk to lab instructors). In case you have no programming background, you'll simply have to do additional excercises from the book to get to the level required by the labs (doable). NB! For students speaking Estonian, just attend the [http://www.lambda.ee/index.php/ITI0011 iti0011 course] as regular student, attend lectures etc (obviously, you'll still have to do additional excercises from the book).<br />
** IDK1011 (in English) - Introduction to Programming. It is a soft start to programming.<br />
<br />
--><br />
<br />
<!--<br />
* Networking<br />
** Wait for Peeter to come back with Tartu suggestions.<br />
** Contact Truls Ringkjob at it college and ask about possible netw intro courses this fall (might happen, if you find a suitable one, verify with T.Tammet that it is OK): Truls Ringkjob, Truls.Ringkjob AT itcollege.ee, phone 6 285 848<br />
<br />
--><br />
<!--<br />
=== People with an IT background ===<br />
<br />
* Possible replacements for Tallinn spring business administration courses:<br />
<br />
** See the TVTM11 schedule link under the "T-School of Economics and Business Administration of TUT" block in the timetable in OIS. It has turned out that some of the courses belonging to this program can be studied only for additional fee (OIS will warn you when it is the case).<br />
** You may contact the Economics and Business Administration international studies counselor Siyi Ma (phone 620 3940, room X-247) for additional details about the courses <br />
<br />
* Tartu: Cryptology I. Requires good math background. See [http://vvv.cs.ut.ee/~peeter_l/teaching/kryptoi10s/ course page] and contact Peeter Laud (peeter_l@ut.ee) for questions about possible distance learning, replacing lab time on Thursdays etc.<br />
<br />
* See the IVSM schedule link under the "I-Faculty of Information Technology" block in the timetable in OIS: these are courses for the first-year international master studies in software engineering and could be an interesting option. The software engineering program coordinator is Jüri Vain (vain@ioc.ee, phone 620 4190): you may want to check with him for the available/suitable courses in that program.<br />
<br />
* The [http://itcollege.ee/?url=overview IT College] (building located close to the IT dept building) offers very good CISCO academy network administration courses. Contact the [http://itcollege.ee/?url=overview IT College] for the exact schedule and availability. Some of these courses are a suitable replacement for networking/administration courses at the second semester in Tartu. However, the IT College/CISCO courses are not part of the Uni of Tech curriculum, hence you would have to pay for these courses yourself.<br />
<br />
* Some of the second-year cybersec courses might be suitable if you have enough IT background and there is no time overlap with you main courses. Check the schedule http://www.lambda.ee/index.php/Cyber_security_2010_second_year and in case of interest, talk (email) to the lecturers and ask about the required background and possibility to enroll. The classes are quite popular and it may happen that there are no places left for the first year students.<br />

In particular, cybersec elective courses of cryptology at Tartu are a good choice for people interested in tech and math!<br />
<br />
You are supposed to declare your courses for the first semester during the first half of september, using the [http://ois.ttu.ee/pls/portal/ois2.ois_public.main OIS study portal]. <br />
Contact the study administration people at IT-235 Raja 15, 12618 Tallinn, phone 6203528, email i@ttu.ee for necessary passwords <br />
and for any other kinds of technical administrative help!<br />
<br />
If for some reason you cannot declare a course in time, do not despair: <br />
it is ok to start the study without declaring all courses immediately.<br />
<br />
<b>NB!</b> It will take time to get the OIS passwords for international students. Understandably you cannot declare your courses in OIS until that, meaning that is OK to declare them later.<br />
<br />
== Ideas for additional courses during fall 2011 ==<br />
<br />
Initial suggestions for courses in addition to the main course schedule are different for people with/without IT background. In the first case, get intro courses (generic intro, very basic programming and very basic networking). In the second case, take additional non-intro courses or do some courses (or replacements) in advance. <br />
<br />
=== People with no/little IT background ===<br />
<br />
You need to get some general IT background, very basic programming competence and intro to networking. Please tell the program coordinators about your background and we will put some suggestions about elective courses on this page.<br />
<br />
* General<br />
** ITX0025 - Introduction to Information Technology (Endre Domiczi), lectures odd weeks Wednesday 08:00-09:30 room IT-140, labs even weeks Wednesday 08:00-09:30 room IT-213D+H .<br />
<br />
* Programming: two options, start in parallel, then choose which (or both) to pursue:<br />
** Partially self-study option: start http://math.hws.edu/javanotes/ and enroll to the comprehensive [http://www.lambda.ee/index.php/ITI0011 programming course based on java (ITI0011)] programming course based on the book. The lectures are in Estonian (no point in attending unless you understand Estonian) but you can receive labwork in English and do the labs in English (choose a suitable labtime once per week from OIS and talk to lab instructors). In case you have no programming background, you'll simply have to do additional excercises from the book to get to the level required by the labs (doable). NB! For students speaking Estonian, just attend the [http://www.lambda.ee/index.php/ITI0011 iti0011 course] as regular student, attend lectures etc (obviously, you'll still have to do additional excercises from the book).<br />

=== People with an IT background ===<br />
<br />
* Possible replacements for Tallinn spring business administration courses:<br />
<br />
** See the TVTM11 schedule link under the "T-School of Economics and Business Administration of TUT" block in the timetable in OIS. It has turned out that some of the courses belonging to this program can be studied only for additional fee (OIS will warn you when it is the case).<br />
** You may contact the Economics and Business Administration international studies counselor Siyi Ma (phone 620 3940, room X-247) for additional details about the courses <br />

<br />
* See the IVSM schedule link under the "I-Faculty of Information Technology" block in the timetable in OIS: these are courses for the first-year international master studies in software engineering and could be an interesting option. The software engineering program coordinator is Jüri Vain (vain@ioc.ee, phone 620 4190): you may want to check with him for the available/suitable courses in that program.<br />
<br />
* The [http://itcollege.ee/?url=overview IT College] (building located close to the IT dept building) offers very good CISCO academy network administration courses. Contact the [http://itcollege.ee/?url=overview IT College] for the exact schedule and availability. Some of these courses are a suitable replacement for networking/administration courses at the second semester in Tartu. However, the IT College/CISCO courses are not part of the Uni of Tech curriculum, hence you would have to pay for these courses yourself.<br />
<br />
* Some of the second-year cybersec courses might be suitable if you have enough IT background and there is no time overlap with you main courses. Check the schedule http://www.lambda.ee/index.php/Cyber_security_2010_second_year and in case of interest, talk (email) to the lecturers and ask about the required background and possibility to enroll. The classes are quite popular and it may happen that there are no places left for the first year students.<br />

* Tartu: Cryptology I. Requires good math background. See [http://vvv.cs.ut.ee/~peeter_l/teaching/kryptoi10s/ course page] and contact Peeter Laud (peeter_l@ut.ee) for questions about possible distance learning, replacing lab time on Thursdays etc.<br />
<br />
* See the IVSM schedule link under the "I-Faculty of Information Technology" block in the timetable in OIS: these are courses for the first-year international master studies in software engineering and could be an interesting option. The software engineering program coordinator is Jüri Vain (vain@ioc.ee, phone 620 4190): you may want to check with him for the available/suitable courses in that program.<br />
<br />
* The [http://itcollege.ee/?url=overview IT College] (building located close to the IT dept building) offers very good CISCO academy network administration courses. Contact the [http://itcollege.ee/?url=overview IT College] for the exact schedule and availability. Some of these courses are a suitable replacement for networking/administration courses at the second semester in Tartu. However, the IT College/CISCO courses are not part of the Uni of Tech curriculum, hence you would have to pay for these courses yourself.<br />
<br />
* Some of the second-year cybersec courses might be suitable if you have enough IT background and there is no time overlap with you main courses. Check the schedule http://www.lambda.ee/index.php/Cyber_security_2010_second_year and in case of interest, talk (email) to the lecturers and ask about the required background and possibility to enroll. The classes are quite popular and it may happen that there are no places left for the first year students.<br />

<br />
Declaration of the courses is opened. OIS may give a warning that you have to pay for the course. You can ignore this. The payment order is cancelled for one course for everybody in IVCM program.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<!--<br />
=== ITX8041 Legal Aspects of Cyber Security ===<br />
The first lecture of the course is on Oct 6 17:45 at III-302. The future plans will be agreed in the lecture, there will be some changes in the timetable probably.<br />

<br />
<br />
<!--<br />
== Observations and suggestions ==<br />
<br />
Observe that the first semester is <i>relatively</i> easy. It makes a lot of sense to take additional elective courses at the first semester. See the ideas below and scan the [http://ois.ttu.ee/pls/portal/ois2.ois_public.main OIS study portal] for available courses this fall (takes effort, but it is useful to learn to find your way in OIS). You can find all the courses given in English (timetables of all international programs) in TUT by looking at OIS -> Timetables -> click to GB flag in the center of the page.<br />
<br />
In particular, cybersec elective courses of cryptology at Tartu are a good choice for people interested in tech and math!<br />
<br />
You are supposed to declare your courses for the first semester during the first half of september, using the [http://ois.ttu.ee/pls/portal/ois2.ois_public.main OIS study portal]. <br />
Contact the study administration people at IT-235 Raja 15, 12618 Tallinn, phone 6203528, email i@ttu.ee for necessary passwords <br />
and for any other kinds of technical administrative help!<br />
<br />
If for some reason you cannot declare a course in time, do not despair: <br />
it is ok to start the study without declaring all courses immediately.<br />
<br />
<b>NB!</b> It will take time to get the OIS passwords for international students. Understandably you cannot declare your courses in OIS until that, meaning that is OK to declare them later.<br />
<br />
== Ideas for additional courses during fall 2011 ==<br />
<br />
Initial suggestions for courses in addition to the main course schedule are different for people with/without IT background. In the first case, get intro courses (generic intro, very basic programming and very basic networking). In the second case, take additional non-intro courses or do some courses (or replacements) in advance. <br />
<br />
=== People with no/little IT background ===<br />
<br />
You need to get some general IT background, very basic programming competence and intro to networking. Please tell the program coordinators about your background and we will put some suggestions about elective courses on this page.<br />
<br />
* General<br />
** ITX0025 - Introduction to Information Technology (Endre Domiczi), lectures odd weeks Wednesday 08:00-09:30 room IT-140, labs even weeks Wednesday 08:00-09:30 room IT-213D+H .<br />
<br />
* Programming: two options, start in parallel, then choose which (or both) to pursue:<br />
** Partially self-study option: start http://math.hws.edu/javanotes/ and enroll to the comprehensive [http://www.lambda.ee/index.php/ITI0011 programming course based on java (ITI0011)] programming course based on the book. The lectures are in Estonian (no point in attending unless you understand Estonian) but you can receive labwork in English and do the labs in English (choose a suitable labtime once per week from OIS and talk to lab instructors). In case you have no programming background, you'll simply have to do additional excercises from the book to get to the level required by the labs (doable). NB! For students speaking Estonian, just attend the [http://www.lambda.ee/index.php/ITI0011 iti0011 course] as regular student, attend lectures etc (obviously, you'll still have to do additional excercises from the book).<br />
** IDK1011 (in English) - Introduction to Programming. It is a soft start to programming.<br />

<!--<br />
== Observations and suggestions ==<br />
<br />
Observe that the first semester is <i>relatively</i> easy. It makes a lot of sense to take additional elective courses at the first semester. See the ideas below and scan the [http://ois.ttu.ee/pls/portal/ois2.ois_public.main OIS study portal] for available courses this fall (takes effort, but it is useful to learn to find your way in OIS). You can find all the courses given in English (timetables of all international programs) in TUT by looking at OIS -> Timetables -> click to GB flag in the center of the page.<br />
<br />
In particular, cybersec elective courses of cryptology at Tartu are a good choice for people interested in tech and math!<br />
<br />
You are supposed to declare your courses for the first semester during the first half of september, using the [http://ois.ttu.ee/pls/portal/ois2.ois_public.main OIS study portal]. <br />
Contact the study administration people at IT-235 Raja 15, 12618 Tallinn, phone 6203528, email i@ttu.ee for necessary passwords <br />
and for any other kinds of technical administrative help!<br />
<br />
If for some reason you cannot declare a course in time, do not despair: <br />
it is ok to start the study without declaring all courses immediately.<br />
<br />
<b>NB!</b> It will take time to get the OIS passwords for international students. Understandably you cannot declare your courses in OIS until that, meaning that is OK to declare them later.<br />
<br />
== Ideas for additional courses during fall 2011 ==<br />
<br />
Initial suggestions for courses in addition to the main course schedule are different for people with/without IT background. In the first case, get intro courses (generic intro, very basic programming and very basic networking). In the second case, take additional non-intro courses or do some courses (or replacements) in advance. <br />
<br />
=== People with no/little IT background ===<br />
<br />
You need to get some general IT background, very basic programming competence and intro to networking. Please tell the program coordinators about your background and we will put some suggestions about elective courses on this page.<br />
<br />
* General<br />
** ITX0025 - Introduction to Information Technology (Endre Domiczi), lectures odd weeks Wednesday 08:00-09:30 room IT-140, labs even weeks Wednesday 08:00-09:30 room IT-213D+H .<br />
<br />
* Programming: two options, start in parallel, then choose which (or both) to pursue:<br />
** Partially self-study option: start http://math.hws.edu/javanotes/ and enroll to the comprehensive [http://www.lambda.ee/index.php/ITI0011 programming course based on java (ITI0011)] programming course based on the book. The lectures are in Estonian (no point in attending unless you understand Estonian) but you can receive labwork in English and do the labs in English (choose a suitable labtime once per week from OIS and talk to lab instructors). In case you have no programming background, you'll simply have to do additional excercises from the book to get to the level required by the labs (doable). NB! For students speaking Estonian, just attend the [http://www.lambda.ee/index.php/ITI0011 iti0011 course] as regular student, attend lectures etc (obviously, you'll still have to do additional excercises from the book).<br />

** You may contact the Economics and Business Administration international studies counselor Siyi Ma (phone 620 3940, room X-247) for additional details about the courses <br />
<br />
* Tartu: Cryptology I. Requires good math background. See [http://vvv.cs.ut.ee/~peeter_l/teaching/kryptoi10s/ course page] and contact Peeter Laud (peeter_l@ut.ee) for questions about possible distance learning, replacing lab time on Thursdays etc.<br />
<br />
* See the IVSM schedule link under the "I-Faculty of Information Technology" block in the timetable in OIS: these are courses for the first-year international master studies in software engineering and could be an interesting option. The software engineering program coordinator is Jüri Vain (vain@ioc.ee, phone 620 4190): you may want to check with him for the available/suitable courses in that program.<br />
<br />
* The [http://itcollege.ee/?url=overview IT College] (building located close to the IT dept building) offers very good CISCO academy network administration courses. Contact the [http://itcollege.ee/?url=overview IT College] for the exact schedule and availability. Some of these courses are a suitable replacement for networking/administration courses at the second semester in Tartu. However, the IT College/CISCO courses are not part of the Uni of Tech curriculum, hence you would have to pay for these courses yourself.<br />
<br />
* Some of the second-year cybersec courses might be suitable if you have enough IT background and there is no time overlap with you main courses. Check the schedule http://www.lambda.ee/index.php/Cyber_security_2010_second_year and in case of interest, talk (email) to the lecturers and ask about the required background and possibility to enroll. The classes are quite popular and it may happen that there are no places left for the first year students.<br />
