SUNYIT has some exciting news for students pursuing the cybersecurity
field. The school will be launching a cybersecurity graduate degree
program next fall. Building on their undergraduate cybersecurity
program, the master's program will serve students just beginning their
careers or those seeking career advancement opportunities at their
current jobs.
"People with the special training in cybersecurity, network and computer security are in high demand throughout both the private and public sector. And in the Mohawk Valley we have a special need for people who are trained in cybersecurity, because of the existence of the Rome air-force research laboratories," says John Marsh, Chair of Computer and Information Sciences at SUNYIT.
Marsh says educating the workforce for these positions will also support the governments' efforts to attract professionals to our region. And applications for fall admissions are now being accepted.
