Bachelor of Arts - Computer Science - Cybersecurity

Computers have changed people's lives beyond imagination - predicting hurricanes, detecting Alzheimer’s disease, and allowing students to video chat with someone across the globe. They will continue to shape the world, requiring highly-trained and skilled professionals to understand computer programs and hardware, programming languages, networking and server security, software and web development, as well as the latest advances in computer technology and equipment.

In practically every facet of life, from banking and business to transportation and telecommunications, computers play a crucial role. With four tracks to choose from, students will be ready to stand out in today’s evolving world of technology and data.

The world’s most valuable resource: data. And it’s growing by the second. In fact, two-and-a-half-quintillion bytes of data are created daily - that’s 2.5 followed by 18 zeros!

This means one thing: cybersecurity professionals are needed now more than ever. Security is crucial for businesses, consumers, and the government to protect systems from cyber threats and attacks. Students gain the skills to protect valuable data assets and anticipate and avoid threats to data integrity by learning the tools and systems used to monitor, mitigate, and prevent online threats. Students will graduate with a degree that is just as valuable as data itself.
