Master of Science in Software Engineering is a joint curriculum of the University of Tartu and the Tallinn University of Technology. The current page contains information about the relevant courses given at the Tallinn University of Technology.

Campus information

To find your way around the Taltech campus, please take a look at [1], there is also a map available there. The dining options in our campus are: 1) Big diner Taltech main building, to the right from main entrance; 2) Diner in the 6th building U06; 3) diner in SOC building ; 5) Diner in Taltech library (considered one of the best). 6) Diner in ICT building. And there is a diner in IT College building at Raja 4C and also in Mektory building at Raja 15.

Campus navigation

There is a Taltech app called Taltech that can be used to navigate on the Taltech campus and inside the buildings.

Accommodation

The dormitory situation is very tight in Tallinn, so please make sure you book your places well ahead.

The information how to book a place at the dormitories can be found here.

For new students, please make sure you file your applications on the 13th of June! The system opens on June 13 (2024), and the sooner you apply the higher you are in the queue. You should not file it earlier either because then your application will end in a pile with all other students, and it takes longer. In the commentary field, please write:„A booked place as agreed with the Taltech Student Campus", as we have reserved few places for software engineering students. Student can choose only two houses on the application. Siidisaba building is located not in the campus, but in Kristiine area, which is closer to city centre, but away from university. Campus office will start giving out offers starting July 3. Have a look at the campus website: [2] For students who plan to move after Autumn semester, November is about the latest time when to file an application with [3]. Please note that students who have not stayed in Taltech dormitories can follow the link "Send application". Students who have previously stayed at the dormitories need to follow the link "e-kyla login" and file the application from there. You can send yourself a password reminder from the page.

Access to Taltech Study Information System

It is necessary to register to the courses given at Taltech in Taltech Study Information System ("Õppeinfosüsteem" in Estonian, ÕIS for short). To access it you need to either

  • Use either your Uni-ID (instructions for setting password below), your ID card or residence permit with a chip to log in at https://ois2.taltech.ee
  • There is an old inteface to the same system at https://ois.taltech.ee. Feel free to use the one that you feel more comfortable with. This interface allows you to log in using your chip card only or you need to go to the IT office to get a special ÕIS user account (not recommended, you would need to contact ÕIS admins in room ÕIS SOC-132).

University e-mail address Uni-ID@taltech.ee

Much of the communication in courses takes place using the official university e-mail addresses. All students of Taltech all have an e-mail address in the form Uni-ID@taltech.ee. To access the e-mail, please log in to mail.taltech.ee and you will be able to read the e-mail online. It is your responsibility to make sure you monitor the e-mail communication to the address.

Login to lab computers, study information system, submission of homeworks

To log in to labs and to submit homeworks in many courses you will need to know your Uni-ID. You are able to find it out and set a password at pass.taltech.ee by again using your ID card or residence permit with a chip. (You are also able to log into the lab computers with the chip card). Read more about it at IT info.

If you do not have the chip card, you will be able to find out your Uni-ID and set passwords at the IT HelpDesk, room SOC-129. Every student should receive also an email with a one-time password and guidelines how to set up UNI-ID if it is not possible to come to Mustamäe. Those of you, who have not received that email, contact Siiri Taveter: siiri.taveter@taltech.ee

Many courses use the university wide Moodle based learning environment moodle.taltech.ee where you will get access using your Uni-ID based e-mail address. Once you have your Uni-ID access sorted, please navigate to moodle.taltech.ee and choose the Taltech Uni-ID login. Use your Uni-ID based e-mail address in the form 'your-uni-id@taltech.ee' and set up your account in the system. You will later be able to join courses.

Practical training

A list of internships is available at TalTech Practice website. You do not have to select from here but it can help when looking for a position.

In software engineering you need to complete 18 ECTS worth of practical training. You can choose between getting credit for internships or doing project courses listed under the practical training module. The below information currently concerns only the credit for internships. Please note that starting with the 2016 cohort, the students choosing the Enterprise Software specialization will need to choose from the two course codes below (or both) to get credit for internships at companies. The embedded and real time software engineering students will need register their internships in University of Tartu.

To get your practical training assessed, you will need to complete a 4 step process and pick from the two intership credit codes:

  • ITX8510 offers 6 ECTS for Internships & Practical trainings. (4 weeks of full time work)
  • ITX8511 offers 12 ECTS for Internships & Practical trainings. (8 weeks of full time work)

If you are looking for a new internship place, please first check out UT practical training offers: [5] and also the following Tallinn University of Technology faculty wide page: [6].

NB! You do not need to register to the practical training courses in Tallinn University of Technology ÕIS. Please read on to find out what the actual procedure is!

If you have found the company or government agency where you want to carry out your internship and have an idea about the duration of the internship, then you should contact the representative at the company and sign the follwing internship form:

1) Practical training plan2016.docx

If you have already work experience, the requirements to get this recognised are as follows:

The work that you have done must be in an IT-related field. For every 6 ECTS you must have worked at least 4 weeks full-time, or 8 weeks part-time (at 50%). You will still be asked to complete the practical training plan to be sure that the internship / practical training gets accepted.

Sign the form, have it signed by the supervisor at the company and then enrol yourself to the IVSM internships and practical training course and upload it to the appropriate course in Moodle.

Please note that the practical training should be carried out in parallel with your studies so that you can actually apply the skills learned in the programme.

NB! No forms should be forwarded by e-mails!

2) Your supervisor at the legal entity where you carry out your internship will have to sign a form and evaluate your work progress. Internship regulations and supervisor form can be found on the Internship regulation and forms page [7] of School of IT web under menu Assessment of Internship. This signed supervisor form needs to be scanned and uploaded to the appropriate assignment in Moodle IVS*/IAP*/ITI* internships and practical training (2022/2023).

You can give the paper copy to the member of staff during your practical training seminar.

3) You will need to write a report about your internship. The guidelines of what the report should contain is given in the following document: Internship report guidelines.pdf. That needs to be submitted together with the supervisor form mentioned in the previous point.

4) You will have to give a presentation about what you have done during your work/internship. This presentation should not only give an overview of what the company is/was doing, but also present some particular projects and problems that you have been working on. If you have worked in a team, also explain how this went and what your contribution was. The presentation should be 8-10 min, and you should expect questions at any time.

The slots for each semester will be listed in the moodle [8] under an appropriate course. Please write your name (by not exceeding the maximum student count) under the appropriate date. Please note that there are meetings in Tartu and Tallinn listed.

Before the seminar, you should file the application to register practical training under the appropriate course code (ITX8510 and/or ITX8511) in study information system. NB! Please press the "submit" button as well!


Note that If you presentation contains some confidential material, then we will arrange a private presentation for your presentation.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact the practical training coordinator Tõnu Näks, tonu.naks@taltech.ee.
