Introduction
Challenges in cybersecurity are in the headlines on a daily basis and prove to be far more than a technical problem as they affect businesses, personal lives, and every area of society. Cybersecurity is a multi-disciplinary field that crosses many lines and explores multiple issues bringing together areas such as Criminal Justice, Psychology, Accounting and Economics, etc.
Why Consider a Cybersecurity Minor?
The Cybersecurity Minor is for students who are interested in complementing their major in the extremely relevant area of Cybersecurity, and want to explore the area deeper than in a certificate. The program is open on a space available basis.
