Connecting University Students with Privacy-focused Engineering Solutions
 
 
 

Why Engineering Privacy Matters

The Risks and Realities

  • Brief overview of common privacy threats in engineering (data breaches, surveillance, intellectual property theft)
  • Real-world examples of privacy breaches affecting engineers and students
  • Potential consequences of neglecting privacy (legal issues, career damage, loss of trust)
  • Research Opportunities:

    We connect students with faculty members and industry experts who are conducting research on privacy-focused engineering solutions. This allows students to gain valuable research experience, contribute to the advancement of privacy technologies, and build their professional network.

  • Open-source Projects: We encourage students to participate in open-source projects that are developing and implementing PETs. This provides students with an opportunity to contribute to the global privacy community, learn from experienced developers, and build a portfolio of their work.
  • Educational Resources: We curate a collection of educational resources, including articles, tutorials, and online courses, that cover a wide range of privacy-related topics. These resources are designed to help students deepen their understanding of privacy concepts and acquire the skills necessary to build privacy-preserving systems.
  • Community Building: We foster a vibrant community of students, faculty, and industry professionals who are passionate about privacy. This community provides a platform for networking, mentorship, and collaboration.

By connecting university students with privacy-focused engineering solutions, we are:

Raising awareness of the importance of privacy in the digital age.

  • Equipping students with the skills and knowledge necessary to build privacy-preserving systems.
  • Inspiring the next generation of engineers to prioritize privacy in their work.
  • Contributing to the development of a more secure and privacy-respecting digital world.

We invite university and college students to join us in our mission to build a more privacy-conscious future. Explore our website, participate in our events, and connect with our community. Together, we can make a difference.

Showcasing Student Work and Articles:

We are committed to showcasing the outstanding work of university students who are passionate about privacy. Our website features a dedicated section where students can share their research papers, projects, and articles related to privacy-focused engineering solutions. This platform provides students with an opportunity to gain recognition for their work, contribute to the global privacy discourse, and inspire their peers.

  • Research Papers: Students can submit research papers that explore novel privacy-enhancing technologies, analyze the privacy implications of emerging technologies, or propose solutions to real-world privacy challenges.
  • Projects: Students can showcase projects that demonstrate the practical application of privacy-preserving techniques, such as building privacy-preserving machine learning models or developing secure data sharing platforms.
  • Articles: Students can contribute articles that educate the public about privacy issues, advocate for privacy-protective policies, or provide insights into the latest developments in privacy research.
