Further Information

The Internetworking seminar is an advanced MSc-level course where students write a technical paper in English on a topic related to Internet and present the paper in a two-day seminar in May. Each paper is assigned a tutor, many of which are university researchers and IT professionals from the local industry. Thus, the course is a great opportunity for students, TKK alumni and those working in the local industry or government departments to network and engage in security teaching at the university.
