NOTE: THE PAGE IS UNDER DEVELOPMENT!

..., "Social, Professional, and Ethical Aspects of Information Technology" or "The Course With The Longest Title" has been in the IT College curricula since the second year of the College (2001, the Estonian version; the current English one was added in 2015 for the then-new Cyber Security Engineering curriculum), and it has gone on to the university era. Being a first year, introductory course, it is a mixture of various topics like IT culture and professionalism, tech history, legal issues and more - the point is to raise awareness of different not-so-technical dimensions surrounding IT. A secondary goal is to provide students with skills in academic writing, reviewing, presentation and public speaking, being the first training towards the future thesis.

Earlier, the whole course was taught by Kaido Kikkas - during the 2022/2023 academic year, Kristjan Karmo came along. Since Autumn 2023, lectures are held by Kaido and seminars are chaired by Kristjan (who will also grade the course).
