Introduction
Cybersecurity issues are pervasive throughout all aspects of life in modern times. The issues are complex and have far ranging consequences such that it has become too important to leave only to technologists. The Cybersecurity certificate provides a means for students from all disciplines to become knowledgeable about the challenges and potential solutions to cybersecurity problems, and to apply cybersecurity principles across all aspects of an organization. The program is open to all students not enrolled in a program in the Computer Science department (CSCI, CISS). The program is open on a space available basis to students who are not majoring in Computer Science, Cybersecurity, Data Science, or Math/Computer Science.
Why Consider a Certificate in Cybersecurity?
The Cybersecurity Certificate is for students who are interested in complementing their major in the extremely relevant area of Cybersecurity.
