Neumann University will introduce its new master’s degree in Cybersecurity as part of an in-person information session on Saturday, March 12, from 9-11:30 a.m. in the Rocco Abessinio Building.

The MS in Cybersecurity is offered online and can be completed in two years or less.

Students build their skills using real-world hacking lab scenarios and simulations, guided by Dr. Thomas Dodds, Neumann’s program director, who used to work for Microsoft.

According to Dodds, there are currently more than 3.5 million unfilled cybersecurity jobs. Neumann’s program, he says, helps students “obtain the advanced, hands-on expertise required to succeed in today’s Security Operations Centers.”

The event will include breakout sessions with program directors for each graduate degree and degree completion program that Neumann offers as well as information about the application process and financial aid. Breakfast will be available from 9 to 9:30 a.m.

The information session will be held in a 300-seat amphitheater to allow for social distancing.

“Neumann is known for its flexible and affordable degree programs,” says Bettsy McKlaine, director of Adult and Graduate Admissions. “Our information sessions provide a supportive environment for adults to learn about degrees that will help them achieve their career goals.”

Neumann offers doctoral and master’s degrees as well as bachelor’s degree-completion programs. Several of these degrees have been ranked by college guides as among the best in the country and can be completed online in 12-18 months.

Doctoral programs are available in Educational Leadership (EdD) and Physical Therapy (DPT).

Master’s degree options include the MS in Accounting (with an emphasis on forensics and fraud detection), Athletic Training, Business, and Organizational Leadership, Clinical Laboratory Science, Cybersecurity, Education, Forensic Psychology (starting fall 2022), Nursing, Pastoral Clinical Mental Health Counseling, and Sports Business.

Online bachelor’s degree programs are the BS in Business and Organizational Studies and BS in Public Safety Administration. Neumann will accept as many as 90 transfer credits into these bachelor’s degree programs, including credit for military and work experience.
