Through hands-on lab activities, case study analyses, and research projects, you’ll enhance your information security understanding and develop your interpersonal, communication, organizational, and problem-solving skills. This program will also include three co-operative education work placements to further enhance all of those skills. You’ll begin by exploring foundational topics in our cyber security courses, including information security, ethics, network management/analysis, programming and scripting, operating systems, and database management. Building on those foundational topics, the curriculum will also develop your skills in the areas of risk analysis, cryptography, vulnerability testing, access control implementation, and security audit performance. Upon completion of the program, you’ll be able to proactively implement critical infrastructure and sound security practices in any organization to mitigate cyber threats and respond quickly to security breaches on sensitive information.
