About
CYBER is an innovative and transdisciplinary postgraduate programme that was put together by the University Lusófona, the University of Barcelona and the Université Paris Cité, to train candidates with Human Behaviour Background (HBB), and Exact Sciences and Engineering Background (EEB) to intervene in human behaviour by means of digital processes, products, and systems (PPS).
CYBER is a two-year programme supported by Erasmus+. CYBER classes will take place in Lisbon, Barcelona and Paris, and internships across the globe with 35 associated partners. At the beginning of the master, CYBER teams (CYBER-T) will come together, pairing one HBB student with one EEB student. CYBER-T will work throughout the programme in assignments, projects, internships and final project and dissertation.
