All of Sz\u00e9chenyi Istv\u00e1n University\u2019s cybersecurity programmes have been included on the list of recognised qualifications and accredited international certifications compiled by the National Coordination Centre. As a result, graduates are officially qualified to take up key positions in Hungary as professionals responsible for the security of electronic information systems. This valuable accreditation not only reflects the high quality of the programmes, but also recognises the strong interdisciplinary approach within the field and the internationally significant research carried out at the University.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sz\u00e9chenyi Istv\u00e1n University was the first in Hungary to launch a Master\u2019s degree in Modern Technologies and Cybersecurity Law. In recent years, the University has expanded its portfolio in this field with an English-taught Master\u2019s programme as well as specialised postgraduate programmes. The Hungarian-taught Master\u2019s programme continues to attract strong interest from applicants, while the English-taught programme, launched for the first time last year, will welcome six times as many students this September as it did a year earlier. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The field of cybersecurity, overseen by the De\u00e1k Ferenc Faculty of Law and Political Sciences yet spanning numerous disciplines, has recently reached a milestone: all relevant programmes at Sz\u00e9chenyi Istv\u00e1n University have been added to the list of institutions authorised to train professionals responsible for the security of electronic information systems (IBF). The register compiled by the National Coordination Centre lists only four institutions nationwide \u2013 one of which is Sz\u00e9chenyi Istv\u00e1n University. Its significance lies in the fact that in Hungary only graduates of the programmes included on this list are eligible to hold IBF positions, meaning that only those completing accredited courses may work in official cybersecurity roles as information security officers (IBF officers)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
According to Dr Roland Kelemen, Head of the Department of Modern Technology and Cybersecurity Law, the accreditation is also a recognition of the high-quality work carried out at Sz\u00e9chenyi Istv\u00e1n University. (Photo: M\u00e1t\u00e9 Dud\u00e1s) <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe are proud that not only our Hungarian-taught, but also our English-taught Master\u2019s programme in Modern Technologies and Cybersecurity Law has been included on this list, making it even more valuable internationally for the students who join us. Continuous development is supported not only by up-to-date teaching materials and methods but also by an interdisciplinary approach, which enables experts from various fields at our institution \u2013 including IT, economics, law, and social sciences \u2013 to participate in internationally recognised research,<\/em>\u201d stated Dr Roland Kelemen, Head of the Department of Law of Modern Technologies and Cybersecurity. He added that the expertise of the lecturers involved in these programmes is demonstrated by numerous publications in Scopus-indexed journals, providing an important mark of quality and making the field even more attractive to both fee-paying and Stipendium Hungaricum international students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
