The Cybersecurity concentration prepares business students to understand and navigate the digital risks facing modern organizations. Designed for future managers, not technical specialists, this concentration blends foundational business knowledge with an introductory understanding of cybersecurity principles, cyber-risk awarness, governance, and organizational resilience.
Students learn how cyber threats impact operations, strategy, finance and customer trust, and how to support policies, compliance practices, and risk-management decisions that strengthen an organization’s security posture.
Offered across all modalities; including on-campus, HyFlex/OnLive, and YourPace, this concentration equips graduates to work effectively alongside technical teams, make informed managerial decisions, and promote a culture of security within any industry. It is an ideal option for business leaders seeking to enhance their digital fluency and protect organizational assets in a rapidly evolving cybersecurity landscape.
