In a world of increasing security breaches among various industries, the benefits of studying cyber security-and cyber security salaries-are growing now more than ever. Without cyber security professionals to keep technology systems running smoothly, business and progress can be slowed or stopped. There are currently over 300,000 unfilled cyber security positions in the country, and that number is estimated to grow at a rate of 37% per year over the next five years! The B.S. in Cyber Security at Albertus Magnus College is a 51 credit major designed to build upon a liberal arts education while providing a curriculum that introduces students to current issues in the field. Students who complete degrees in cyber security will gain both the technical expertise required of experts in the field and the non-technical skills necessary to ensure that organizations stay secure against external threats. Students who graduate from these programs will be prepared to enter the workforce and serve across a wide range of industries and career paths. |
