Overview

Online Safety

Whether you have recently graduated with a non-computing degree or have experience working in industry and are looking to retrain, the conversion MSc in Cyber Security from University of Suffolk will cover a range of cyber security topics essential to any organisation of the 21st Century. The course is one of a small number that consists entirely of Cyber Security modules, and it uniquely provides explicit training in the human side of cyber security through the study of Social Engineering.

Furthermore, the course will give students a generalist background in cyber security – this has long been recognised as something that is lacking in industry, and graduates will be well placed to contribute to organisations at a variety of levels and roles (not just the technical ones).

In the 2022 (ISC)² Cybersecurity Workforce Study, nearly 12,000 cybersecurity professionals worldwide were surveyed, and a global cybersecurity workforce gap of 3.4 million people was identified. The employment market for cyber security professionals has never been stronger.
