Overview

The cybersecurity specialization provides an opportunity for IT professionals to gain knowledge specific to the detection, protection, and recovery from attacks to an organization’s information assets. When combined with the leadership/management skills classes in the BAS core, this specialization will provide a thorough knowledge base for managers and technology leaders concerned with the operation and management of cybersecurity systems. This baccalaureate degree requires significant study in general education at the upper-division level. A professional/technical degree in a computer-related discipline is required for admission. Students not meeting the requirement of the degree in a computer-related discipline would need department permission. Upon successful completion of this program, students will be able to: Demonstrate knowledge in core IT Management foundation areas. Demonstrate the ability to understand the significance of information technology management on individuals, organizations, and society. Have the ability to apply basic quantitative tools. Have the ability to communicate effectively. Demonstrate the ability to manage and lead. Apply advance use of current techniques, skills and tools necessary for information technology management. Learn to detect, protect, and recover from attacks to an organization’s information assets. Public utility companies, national security agencies, food and water suppliers, financial services, and companies with intellectual property to protect are now hiring experts in this area. The skills to detect and recover from cyber-attacks, coupled with the team leadership, effective communication, and project management skills of the BAS core, will provide a thorough knowledge base for managers and technology leaders concerned with the operation and management of cybersecurity systems. Because of the technical IT skills classes involved in this specialization, a computer-related associate degree is suggested for admission.

OPT and STEM OPT eligibility depend on maintaining F-1 status and on the program. A program counts as STEM only when its CIP code is on the official STEM list — not because its name sounds technical.
