Master of Science - Cyber Security and Data Governance

The MSc Cyber Security and Data Governance focuses on a combination of technology, business and policy to give you a well-rounded insight into the vital ways in which information is collected, stored, communicated and protected. It’s an ideal choice if students have an interest in developing an in-depth specialist knowledge and a critical understanding of the key aspects of cyber security and data governance.

This one year postgraduate degree (or 18 months with work placement) has been designed in collaboration with experienced industry leaders to provide a comprehensive foundation of core cyber security concepts and a practical view into how organizations of various sizes approach and implement cyber security controls. It aims to bridge the gap between foundational concepts and application of cyber security to current technology trends such as Cloud Computing, Internet of Things, Robotic Process Automation, Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning.

This course will equip students with the skills to manage and analyze an organization's data assets and security measures, and provide an understanding of data governance principles, practices and technologies.
