Cybersecurity and Policy, Emphasis
The establishment of an area of emphasis in Cybersecurity and Policy within the MPA program is an imperative response to the evolving challenges in the public sector. Industry standards underscore the critical need for professionals equipped with a profound understanding of cybersecurity and its intersection with policy formulation and implementation. The increasing frequency and sophistication of cyber threats demand a specialized skill set to safeguard sensitive information and ensure effective policy responses. This emphasis directly addresses this demand, providing students with comprehensive knowledge in cybersecurity strategy, risk management, and policy development. By aligning our curriculum with industry expectations, we aim to produce graduates who can navigate the complex landscape of cybersecurity and contribute to the resilience and security of public institutions.
