Accelerated Dual Degree: Bachelor of Arts in Computing & Informatics, Master of Science in Cybersecurity

The Accelerated Dual Degree Bachelor of Arts/Master of Science (BA/MS) in Cyber Security Program allows competent and highly motivated undergraduate students to complete the Bachelor of Arts in Computing & Informatics and a Master of Science in Cyber Security in five years as opposed to the traditional period of six years if both degrees were completed separately. Only upper-level undergraduate Computing & Informatics majors who have been admitted into the Bachelor of Arts Computing & Informatics Degree Program will be allowed to apply for the Accelerated Dual Degree Bachelor of Arts/Master of Science in Cyber Security Program. Once admitted, a student will enroll as a full-time undergraduate in both undergraduate Computing & Informatics and graduate Cyber Security courses in their first year of the Program to complete requirements for the Bachelor of Arts in Computing & Informatics Degree and then enroll as a full-time student in graduate Cyber Security courses in their second year of the Program to complete requirements for the Master of Science in Cyber Security Degree. The Master of Science in Cyber Security Degree is a 30 credit program. The Bachelor of Arts in Computing & Informatics /Masters of Cyber Security Dual Degree is structured so that students first complete requirements for the Bachelor of Arts in Computing & Informatics Degree Program, but can replace 12 credits of undergraduate Computing & Informatics electives with 12 credits of graduate coursework that are required for the Master of Science in Cyber Security Degree Program in their senior year (fourth year). In their fifth year students will take the additional 18 graduate credits required for the Master of Science in Cyber Security Degree.
