Purpose of the Master's Degree
  • The Master's Degree in Cybersecurity and Data Intelligence aims to help meet the growing need for qualified personnel in cybersecurity and data intelligence.
  • The proposed degree has been designed primarily with the aim of enabling students of the Degree in Computer Engineering to complement their academic training and learn the most innovative and relevant procedures and techniques in the field of Professional Computing and its applications. The design is carried out with the emphasis on standard, free and open source technologies as a differentiating element, both for the relevant role that these have acquired as a backbone element in the ICT sector, and for the added value that this represents in the learning of the developed content. This commitment is transferred transversally to all the subjects that make up the Master's Degree.

Who is it for?
  • The student's entry profile will be a Computer Science Engineer or Graduate, a Technical Computer Science Engineer, or a Graduate in Computer Science Engineering. Entry is not permitted from any other qualification that does not meet the requirements set forth in the resolution of June 8, 2009.

  • The Master's Degree in Cybersecurity and Data Intelligence trains security auditors and data scientists to effectively design security consulting/audit projects and their implementation plans. It also provides them with the knowledge of the steps to follow and will give them the necessary skills to adapt and make them flexible depending on the type of organization they are targeting.
  • The dual master's degree option is highly beneficial for interested students, businesses, and society in general. It allows students to earn both degrees through an integrated academic path.

Are there any mobility options?

Mobility in double degrees is limited by their implementation schedule and also by their degree structure.

The planning and mobility management resources provided by the University of La Laguna itself will be used.

You can find more information about mobility grants for students in university master's degrees at this calls page.

In addition, you can consult here information on scholarships from the Ministry of Education.

The University of La Laguna has mobility calls for postgraduate students, through its Vice-Rectorate for Internationalization:
