Ruslana DEGTYAR, PhD candidate of the Department of Criminal Law and Judiciary, successfully completed the Spring School of Young Scientist 4.0, which is confirmed by a certificate.
The School of a Young Scientist is a unique educational and scientific project organized by the Council of Young Scientists under the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine.
The event gathered post-graduate students (adjuncts) from various universities of the country and from various fields of science. During four weeks, the participants attended lectures from leading experts and took part in practical master classes.
From June 17th to 21st, the academic and research institute of law of Sumy State University hosted a Summer School as part of the Jean Monnet educational project under the EU Erasmus+ program (101125350 – EUEPPDC – ERASMUS-JMO-2023-MODULE) titled “EU Experience in Data Protection in Cyberspace”. This event served as a forum for discussing pressing issues of cybersecurity and data protection against a backdrop of increasing cyber threats in Europe and globally.
The event was attended by over 130 individuals, including academics, higher education students, school pupils, as well as representatives from government and local authorities. The Summer School brought together participants from various regions of Ukraine, facilitating the exchange of experiences and fostering new professional relationships.
The program was comprehensive, consisting of 8 hours of lectures and 8 hours of practical sessions conducted on the modern platform, Examenarium. The lectures covered a broad range of topics from theoretical foundations of data protection to the analysis of specific cases of cyberattacks and their mitigation methods.
Particular attention was given to the practical aspects of information protection. Participants had the opportunity to practice skills in identifying cyber threats and methods for protecting personal data, which is crucial in the face of contemporary information challenges.
The sessions were conducted at a high academic and scientific level. Both lecturers and participants actively engaged in discussions, enhancing a thorough understanding of the topics presented. The project team expresses sincere gratitude to all participants for their active involvement and looks forward to further collaboration in upcoming educational initiatives.
Участь у заході взяли понад 130 осіб, серед яких були науковці, студенти вищих навчальних закладів, учні шкіл, а також представники державної влади та місцевого самоврядування. Літня школа зібрала учасників з різних регіонів України, що дозволило обмінятися досвідом і налагодити нові професійні зв’язки.
Програма заходу була насиченою: вона включала 8 годин лекційних занять та 8 годин практичних сесій, які проводилися на сучасній платформі Examenarium. Лекції покривали широкий спектр тем, від теоретичних основ захисту даних до аналізу конкретних кейсів кібератак і методів їх нейтралізації.
Особливу увагу на заході приділили практичним аспектам захисту інформації. Учасники мали можливість відпрацювати навички ідентифікації кіберзагроз та методи захисту персональних даних, що є надзвичайно важливим в умовах сучасних інформаційних викликів.
Заняття відбулися на високому навчально-науковому рівні. Викладачі та учасники літньої школи активно брали участь у дискусіях, що сприяло глибокому розумінню розкритих тем. Команда проєкту висловлює щиру подяку всім учасникам за активну участь і сподівається на подальшу співпрацю у рамках наступних освітніх ініціатив.
