Master of Science in Cyber Security
Program Overview
Our MSc Cyber Security is ideal for computer science graduates, with or without industry experience, who are prepared to build a skill set suitable for a profession in cyber security. Through this Masters degree you'll:
- understand how to transform employees into cyber security assets by understanding the central role of people in the cyber security landscape
- place yourself at the forefront of expertise when it comes to secure programming, networking and system design
- gain project-driven experience of tools and methods appropriate for understanding and addressing emerging cyber threats
Why this course?
What's special about the MSc in Cyber Security offered by Strathclyde is its depth of and breadth of coverage of the cyber security landscape.
Cyber security problems cannot be truly understood solely from a technical or sociological perspective. Cyber security experts should shift perspectives between attackers and defenders, identify human factors, economic motives, and operate within regulatory constraints.
The course will create new cyber security leaders capable of formulating their own abstractions which enable them to manage conceptually the infinite range of attack vectors that increasingly sophisticated actors may attempt to exploit.
From day one, students will go deep into parallel tracks with world-leading experts in threat modelling and secure programming, human-centric security, and network security. This takes student and lecturers together on an adventure deep into specialised topics. At the same time, students will reflect on the bigger picture, appreciating how each skill set earned is just one perspective required to face the realities of mitigating cyberattacks.
