Cyber Security (M.S.)

The demand for skilled computer security professionals has been continuously growing as businesses and government continue to invest heavily in “cyber-security,” the science of protecting vital computer networks and electronic infrastructures from attacks. To help fulfill this demand, Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) at Polytechnic Institute of New York University (NYU-Poly) launches the new M.S. program in Cyber-Security. NYU-Poly is one of the leading educational and research centers in cyber-security, with a renown faculty and research staff. The new MS program offers strong, well-rounded and specialized education covering both theory and hands-on practice, producing graduates ready to meet the real-world and unforeseen cyber-security challenges.

Now Accepting: NYU-Poly announces fall launch of MS in cyber-security

Polytechnic Institute of NYU’s announcement this week that it is accepting fall applicants for its new master’s in cyber-security program comes just weeks after the Pentagon revealed it had spent $100 million over the past 6 months to clean up damage from Internet attacks and other network problems.

Designers of the MS program say that graduates will be just the type of security experts government, commercial, and research organizations will need as cyber-criminals become more and more sophisticated. And increasingly, they will be in demand not only to fix damage from cyber-attacks, but also to prevent it.
