Every day, cybercriminals exploit the speed, convenience and anonymity of the internet to commit crimes such as phishing, password cracking and ransomware attacks. Cybercrime is on the rise, yet globally there’s a shortfall of more than three million cybersecurity professionals due to a lack of skilled graduates. With demand projected to grow significantly over the next five years, the need for qualified experts has never been greater.
The Master of Cyber Security will prepare you to meet this demand. You’ll build advanced capabilities in applied cryptography, data privacy, digital forensics, ethical hacking, information security and secure application development, with a curriculum aligned to the roles shaping today’s cybersecurity landscape. You’ll gain practical experience through internships in our $10 million Cyber Security Hub, where academia, industry and government collaborate to address real-world challenges. And you’ll enjoy opportunities to connect with organisations driving advances in cyber-secure infrastructure, such as NEXTDC, Hubify, Meridian IT and Raytheon Australia – all located in the neighbouring Connect Macquarie Park Innovation District..
