Bachelor of Science in Cybersecurity

The Bachelor of Science in Cybersecurity is designed to educate future professionals who can design, implement, secure, and govern resilient computing systems in an increasingly interconnected and threat-intensive digital environment. The program prepares graduates with strong foundations in computer science, mathematics, and engineering principles, combined with advanced, practice-oriented cybersecurity competencies spanning systems security, data and information security, network security, digital forensics, and AI-enabled security solutions.

The program mirrors academically equivalent coursework from Arizona State University’s Bachelor of Science in Computer Science with a Cybersecurity focus and closely aligned cybersecurity offerings within ASU’s Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering.
