Overview

Carleton University’s Bachelor of Cybersecurity (BCyber) is unique in Canada. The program targets the computer science aspects of cybersecurity to help students understand the broad range of current and anticipated future threats and risks, as well as solutions to address them. Ransomware, malware, phishing, distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks, spyware, and credential theft are among the most common internet-based threats facing society, and such attacks are reported in the news nearly every day. Cybersecurity is concerned with defending against these threats. The field has steadily expanded in breadth, depth, and societal importance, and is now recognized as a stand-alone subject alongside Computer Science and Computer Engineering. Carleton University's cybersecurity research team, one of the strongest in Canada, has designed a new undergraduate program in Cybersecurity to help prepare future leaders in society's defence against cyberattacks. It is an intensive program designed for high-achieving and ambitious students who excel in math and science, who enjoy solving challenging problems, and who are strongly interested in a career in computer and network security. Carleton University's location in the nation's capital provides excellent opportunities for networking and employment in security due to the high concentration of local high-tech companies and government organizations. A co-op option is available. Co-op provides the opportunity to get a head start on a career. Co-op work terms enable the development of key employability skills, exploration of career options, and graduation with tangible workplace experience.
