Graduate Certificate in Cybersecurity

Cybersecurity is the practice of managing information related risks by ensuring confidentiality, integrity, authentication, availability, and non-repudiation of data. In addition to the national interest in cybersecurity, local businesses are increasingly reliant on secure computer infrastructures for their daily operations. A graduate-level certificate is a logical step to enhance the skill set of local and at-a-distance cybersecurity professionals. Additionally, the certificate program can serve as a feeder into the MS in cybersecurity degree should the students in the certificate choose to continue their graduate education.

The minimum undergraduate grade point average requirement for the program is 3.0 or equivalent score on a 4.0 scale. Applicants should have the equivalent of a four-year undergraduate degree.
