Companies are in need of cybersecurity professionals to keep their information safe. A career in cybersecurity not only brings immense value to an organization, but it is a rapidly growing field. Recognized as an academic leader in cybersecurity by industry and government organizations, ASU offers a robust degree experience designed to make you stand out from other traditional degree programs.
The challenge universities face when preparing students for successful careers in cybersecurity is going beyond teaching just tactical, near-term solutions. Instead, we must provide an interdisciplinary education that takes into account critical skills, the understanding of risk and governance, and the importance of work-study experience that addresses cybersecurity from many angles.These elements are woven throughout various programs at ASU, and prepare cyber-aware individuals who will thrive in a variety of situations.
