Course Description
The International Master’s Programme in Software Engineering at the University of Tartu imparts general software engineering and management skills, as well as specialised skills in two major application domains: enterprise systems and embedded real-time systems. Estonia is the best place to study IT because it is home to Skype, NATO’s cyber-defense center of excellence, EU’s IT Agency, and a groundswell of successful IT startups; it is a pioneer in e-identity, e-voting, e-prescription and other digital society initiatives; it is on top of the list for Internet Freedom according to the Freedom of the Net survey, 3 years in a row (2010-2012).Full-time students admitted to this Master’s program in 2013 will automatically receive a tuition-waiving scholarship which means they do not have to pay tuition fee. Also, at least 12 stipend-paying scholarships are available (300 EUR/month).
Master’s of Software Engineering prepares students for a career path leading to high-end technical roles (e.g. software analyst, architect or research engineer) as well as managerial roles (e.g. project/team leader or technology officer). Graduates of this program are well equipped to join the highly dynamic software industry in the Baltics, Northern and Eastern Europe.
