Computer Science Degrees

Bachelor of Science in Cybersecurity and Networking

Our BS in Cybersecurity and Networking is delivered with an interactive, hands-on methodology (using actual tools found in the work environment) for leveraging network solutions, and cyber detection and prevention that may provide you with needed skills starting on day one.

• Students are presented with the opportunity to learn how to harness the power of PowerShell in a Windows environment so that they may leverage network administrative tasks across an entire organization through the scripting process.
• Hodges U provides virtual machines for students to set up a variety of mock network configurations to write, test, and execute PowerShell scripts, which may help to build and refine their skills before entering the workforce.
• Earn your industry certifications and degree simultaneously. Available industry certifications include MOS, CompTIA A+, CompTIA Net+, CCNA, MCP, CompTIA Security +, & CompTIA Linux+.
• Learn cutting-edge solutions for current cybersecurity and networking issues from faculty who have relevant practical in-field experience. Listen as your professor, who works at a governmental agency, provides incredible, real-life examples of cyberattacks and explains not only how the attack was leveraged, but also how it could have been prevented. This knowledge translates into training on how to best detect and shield an organization from a cyberattack, as well as how to organize and complete organizational triage after a successful attack has been leveraged against an organization.
• Students could expand their security skills in our Ethical Hacking course. Students are immersed into an interactive environment where they are shown how to scan, test, hack, and secure their own systems. The lab intensive environment readies each student with in-depth knowledge and practical experience with current essential security systems.
• Our IT classrooms run on an independent network allowing students to use simulation software for networking, security detection, and incident analysis. This simulation opportunity may help students develop and strengthen cybersecurity and networking skills by allowing them to run tests and simulate situations for real-world, real-time learning that complements traditional instructional methods.
• Students will have the opportunity to create a variety of virtual networks with servers and workstations, learn how to operate any size network effectively and efficiently, and learn how to detect, resolve, and prevent various types of security threats on an organization’s networked resources.
