專業(yè)概況
在這里學(xué)什么?
The Department of Computer Science and Engineering offers a Master of Science in Cybersecurity. The MS in Cybersecurity provides a high quality, academically challenging, and career-enriching educational program that is responsive to industry trends, changing standards, and employer needs. The degree develops students who are highly skilled in the field, technically savvy, and think critically about cybersecurity challenges. Applications are being accepted.
Excellence in cybersecurity
The UNT Center for Information and Cyber Security (CICS) has been designated by the National Security Agency and Department of Homeland Security as a National Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense Education and Research. As a center for excellence, our students learn from experts in the field and gain knowledge and skills that have practical applications in industry post-graduation.
Growing industry needs in cybersecurity
Currently, there are an estimated 500,000 cybersecurity jobs unfilled in our country, from management, scientists, architects, and administrators to every kind of technical personnel. The Cybersecurity Jobs Report 2018-2021 predicts that there will be 3.5 million unfilled jobs in cybersecurity by 2021. As new technologies enter every part of daily life, due to lack of expertise, we expect the demand for people with higher degrees will exponentially increase.
Competitive salaries
Companies hiring cybersecurity professionals are also offering lucrative salaries.
- On average, information security professionals earn $106,000 per year, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (May 2019). That’s almost three times the national median income for full-time workers in the United States.
- The Computer Systems Design and Services industry has the highest concentration of cybersecurity jobs, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
- As of April 2020, the average annual pay for a Master’s degree in cybersecurity in the United States is $102,037 per year. Based on our students' employment, an MS degree is considered equivalent to 2 years of experience in the industry. Many MS students are hired into leadership roles in the industry after graduation.
Jobs after graduation
After graduation, MS in cybersecurity graduates will be prepared for jobs in secure software development, system test/evaluation, data security analysis, IT security project management, cyber defense analysis, vulnerability assessment, and system security engineering, security architecture, enterprise architecture, and scientific research positions.
