About the program

Administered by the Electrical & Computer Engineering Department in the College of Engineering, this program is interdisciplinary in nature and includes courses from Drexel University’s College of Computing & Informatics. Topics covered include computer networking, probability concepts, techniques for analyzing algorithms, dependable software design, reverse software engineering, intrusion detection, ethics, privacy, confidentiality, authenticity, and social networking.

The Cybersecurity program at Drexel University offers multidisciplinary “research rotations” as an independent study component of the degree program and an option to participate in the Graduate Co-op Program.

Graduate Co-Op Program

Students may choose to participate in the Graduate Co-op Program, working on curriculum related projects. Graduate Co-op enables graduate students to alternate class terms with a six-month period of hands-on experience, gaining access to employers in their chosen industries. Whether co-op takes students throughout the United States or abroad, they are expanding their professional networks, enhancing their resumes, and bringing that experience back to the classroom and their peers.

The program was deliberately designed to address needs of the Federal Cyber Service, the Department of Defense, and the National Security Agency. The program strengthens ties between these agencies and Drexel University and will provide professional opportunities for students pursuing this degree.
