PROGRAMME: Master's in Software Engineering

Why did you choose to study this programme?

I chose the Software Engineering programme at the University of Tartu because it fits my career goals perfectly. With its specialisation in Enterprise Software Engineering, this programme provides the ideal foundation for managing software systems in large corporations or creating your startup. What makes it even more exciting is the joint degree with TalTech, offering access to the combined resources and expertise of two prestigious universities in Estonia, enriching my learning experience.

Why Estonia?

I was drawn to Estonia as my study destination for two key reasons. Firstly, Estonia's dynamic startup scene presented me with exceptional opportunities for networking and gaining practical experience in the tech industry. Secondly, the country's captivating natural landscapes, characterized by forests and clean air, provided an ideal environment for focused learning and an enhanced quality of life.
