Abstract

We report upon our experiences in developing and delivering a programme of part-time education in Software and Systems Security at the University of Oxford. The MSc in Software and Systems Security is delivered as part of the Software Engineering Programme at Oxford - a collection of one-week intensive courses aimed at individuals who are responsible for the procurement, development, deployment and maintenance of large-scale software-based systems. We expect that our experiences will be useful to those considering a similar journey.
