From the 3rd year, students partially build their own timetable — they choose 12 lessons per week (6 subjects) from a selection of “Advanced” courses based on their interests: Cybersecurity, Software Project, IoT, Algorithmics, Financial Literacy, Psychology, Social Sciences, etc. A full overview is available here.
