Courses

CWI highly values education. CWI researchers not only supervise and inspire the CWI PhD students, but also aim at contributing to teaching Master's students at universities. See the overview of CWI's current involvement in teaching courses in the Netherlands below.

Contribution to education

CWI is a research institute and does not have education as an institutional task. However, many of the senior researchers of CWI contribute to education via an affiliation or part-time appointment at one of the Dutch universities. CWI conveys the knowledge of the scientists employed at our institute to the new generation of mathematics and computer science students. Our staff contributes by e.g. teaching a university course or supervising MSc thesis projects carried out by university students. They also supervise PhD students at CWI, who defend their thesis at one of the Dutch universities after their employment at CWI. All courses can be found below in alphabetical order. You can also open the pdf for a complete overview.

Secure and Trustworthy Machine Learning

The course touches on various topics in machine learning and security. Examples of topics that can be included are: adversarial machine learning for image classifiers; Differential Privacy for distributed Stochastic Gradient Descent; secure multi-party computation for federated learning; the use of ML in security such as intrusion detection, analysis of silicon Physical Unclonable Function designs, GAN models generating synthetic data such that collected personal data can be discarded, and the moral character of cryptography, security, and artificial intelligence.
