ICT security curriculum or how to respond to current global challenges

The paper presents some results obtained through the implementation of the Erasmus LLP “SALEIE” (Strategic Alignment of Electrical and Information Engineering in European Higher Education Institutions). The aim of the project was to bring together experts from European universities to enhance the competitiveness of Electrical and Information Engineering (EIE) education within Europe, especially in relation to modern global technical challenges and to provide higher education models in a few EIE fields in accordance with these challenges. One of the outcomes of the project was a new ICT (Information and Computer Technology) Security curriculum for bachelor and master levels. The research methodology comprised such stages as: identifying the most important current global challenges, conducting a survey related to existing EIE programs in order to establish the top-level criteria for an EIE curriculum, analyzing the results of the survey, obtaining the industry feedback related to technical and non-technical skills required for the specific field, and proposing a new curriculum for ICT Security programmes to respond to the modern technical challenges and to meet the needs of the industry, students, academics and graduates. As future work we will focus on stakeholder assessment in the EIE field and, based on the resulting feedback, on improving the ICT Security curriculum.

ELLEIEC Project: A contribution to harmonise the European Higher Education Area

This paper presents the objective and current state of the ELLEIEC [1] project (Enhancing Lifelong Learning for the Electrical and Information Engineering Community). The implementation of the Bologna process offers us an opportunity to create a European dimension to our EIE (Electrical and Information Engineering) Degrees in the World Wide education area by convergence of our curricula and strengthening the links and sharing of resources between European Higher Education Institutions.

Curricula Reachable via Internet for Teaching Intelligent Instruments

Built in the framework of the SOCRATES European programme, the INEITMUCON Thematic Network is based on a primary idea coming from EAEEIE (European Association for Education in Electrical and Information Engineering). In the field of EIE (Electrical and Information Engineering), the INEIT-MUCON project formulates common Curricula and defines a minimum knowledge base for an engineer (or equivalent) in a European context, both in level and content. The pedagogical resources in which we are working on concerns intelligent instrumentation and digital signal processing.

The SOCRATES INEIT-MUCON Thematic Network: Curricula in EIE Via Internet

Built in the framework of the SOCRATES European programme, the INEIT-MUCON Thematic Network is based on a primary idea coming from EAEEIE (European Association for Education in Electrical and Information Engineering). In the field of EIE (Electrical and Information Engineering), the INEIT-MUCON project formulates common Curricula and define a minimum knowledge base for an engineer (or equivalent) in a European context, both in level and content. The Information Technology has been chosen since this encapsulates a range of subject material, while maintaining a recognisable theme of wide interest to European Industry, Commerce and Educational Establishments and to develop a set of Educational material and resources for Information Technology which may be used as a shared resource by students and academic staff alike.
