Abstract:

Since 2010 the Universitat Jaume I (UJI) of Castellón has been teaching a degree in Criminology and Security under the Bologna approach. The degree is mainly focused on Psychology and Law courses, so students have little training in technological subjects.

To solve this problem, in the last year of the degree, students are introduced in Cybersecurity and Cybercrime. In this course teachers try to train them both in theoretical and practical aspects of information and communication technologies to improve Cybersecurity and to reduce Cybercrime. The objective is to introduce conceptual training in communications, security, forensic analysis and cybercrime, and practical experience in cybercrime investigation, anonymity technologies, practical encryption and social networks.

The aim of this paper is to show the methodology and learning solutions used to teach the subject during the academic years 2013-14, 2014-15 and 2015-16. Paper shows the course objectives, the target competencies, the course contents and the assessments.
