Program Description

Government, industry, and consumers increasingly depend on secure networks and information systems for daily communications, transactions, and more. Vulnerabilities to cyber attacks could lead to critical disruptions in telecommunications, banking, utilities, data storage, and transportation. Addressing these growing cybersecurity threats requires highly educated and specialized engineers who can lead efforts to protect our critical infrastructure.

At the University of Maryland, you can advance your career or transition into this high-demand field. Offered in collaboration with the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Department of Computer Science, and the Maryland Cybersecurity Center, our cybersecurity programs merge engineering applications with computer science principles. Our cybersecurity Master of Engineering and Graduate Certificate in Engineering degrees prepare engineers with the skills and knowledge that they can apply to their job in industry and government.

The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects a 28% growth in US employment for cybersecurity consultants from 2016 to 2026. This pace of growth is much higher than the average job growth. Meet the demand for cybersecurity professionals by getting your graduate degree and/or certificate in Cybersecurity from the University of Maryland.
