Frontiers in Security Research (FDAT085)

PhD course for Chalmers/Gothenburg University, taking place at the Johanneberg campus. Lecturer: Steven Van Acker

In this course, we study advanced security topics by reading state-of-the-art papers from top conferences in the field. Each student chooses relevant papers for a specific topic in the beginning of the course and presents it at a seminar. Each student also hands in a written report containing a summary of his/her topic and an in-depth review of the selected papers, pros and cons of the taken approach, and how the paper relates to other papers in the area. These reports are then peer-reviewed by the other students in the course.
