Overview
Computer Science with Cybersecurity (Hons) is offered by Abertay University . But most software developers aren’t cybersecurity experts – and that’s what the industry really needs right now.
Key Facts
Working across desktop, mobile and embedded platforms, you’ll learn how to design and implement secure software systems that are resilient to cyberattack. Right from the start, you develop an in-depth understanding of programming and building secure systems through hands-on, practical experience. You’ll specialise in the design, implementation and analysis of secure software systems, covering both offensive and defensive techniques. You’ll be prepared for the rapidly evolving cybersecurity work environment through our teaching expertise in ethical hacking, computing, secure software engineering and human-centred security. Using your grasp of programming and computer architecture, you’ll develop and implement systems with fewer vulnerabilities to help stop cyberattacks using offensive and defensive techniques. By the time you graduate you’ll have a range of specialist analytical, operational and developer skills designed to make you hugely employable. This means you can easily transition into exciting new roles as the cybersecurity industry develops and grows, and work in jobs such as software engineers or specialist security reviewers.
