College of Applied Science & Technology

Demand for qualified cyber professionals continues both nationally and internationally. The Master of Science in Cyber and Information Operations program will prepare you for cyber-related occupations and leadership positions in government, defense, law enforcement, and private industry. 

This program is designed with working professionals, both in and out of technologically-oriented disciplines, in mind. The College of Applied Science & Technology (CAST) ensures that online offerings provide interaction, collaboration, hands-on learning, and research opportunities while recognizing working students' challenges. 

The curriculum includes offensive and defensive cyber security and information operations content delivered within our state-of-the-art Cyber Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) to ensure you attain extensive hands-on experiences and research opportunities to develop the knowledge, skills, and abilities necessary to succeed. 

Graduating from the MS in Cyber and Information Operations program offers tremendous opportunities in various fields as the program meets the most demanding academic and technical requirements. In addition, graduates will be well-qualified to teach future generations of Cyber and Information Operations students, an area within the discipline where there is a significant gap in the number of qualified professionals with the knowledge and skills to be instructors at any level.
