Bachelor of Science - Cybersecurity

The University of Central Missouri's Cybersecurity program is a leader in the state and the nation. Their Cybersecurity program is one of the first two ABET accredited programs in Missouri, and one of only a handful of accredited Cybersecurity programs in the nation. Achievement of ABET accreditation is an indicator that their program exhibits the level of quality demanded by industry and that they are able to produce graduates that are workforce ready.

The program curricula provide foundational and hands-on training in technical, systems, human, organizational, and societal aspects of cybersecurity. The program includes courses like cryptography, secure programming, network security, cloud security, web applications security, cyber-physical systems security, information assurance, ethical hacking, usable security, and computer forensics.

The curricula are designed according to the National Centers of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense (CAE-CDE) Education Program Knowledge Units jointly sponsored by the National Security Agency (NSA) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

They provide an unmatched education to students in the region, and they're proud of it. With the demand for qualified technical personnel far exceeding the available supply, the opportunities awaiting Cybersecurity graduates are nearly limitless.
