Information and Cyber Analysis Minor

Cyber is more than a computer network, but also a realm of numerous social processes that includes legitimate and illegitimate activities. The increasing complexity of technology for cyber security, information assurance and critical infrastructure requires personnel capable of dealing with complex data sets and having problem solving skills that transcend traditional academic boundaries. This interdisciplinary program is designed to provide students a wide exposure to analytically-oriented classes throughout the university.
