German experts lead IT and cybersecurity talks at CTU

IT and cybersecurity experts Bjorn Backer and Daniel Fischer of Germany’s Aalen University delivered lectures at Cebu Technological University (CTU) yesterday, reflecting the two institutions’ ongoing commitment to promote concrete collaborations since their partnership was established last year.

Students and faculty from the College of Information and Communications Technology (CICT) participated in interactive sessions designed to maximize learning during the brief encounter.

Backer’s visit was linked to his attendance at the research congress hosted by CTU, in collaboration with Canadian and UAE partners, with Fischer contributing to the lectureship alone.

Following the interactions, the experts conducted a brief campus tour. Both noted to IAI leadership that the students’ questions demonstrated a strong inclination to the current issues surrounding the topics discussed.

The activity contributes to CTU’s inbound internationalization scorecard and provides students and staff with direct exposure to expertise in IT and cybersecurity./IAI
