Bachelor in Cyber Security

1. PROGRAM INTRODUCTION 

When the world is entering the 4th industrial revolution, machines are becoming more popular, cheaper to produce, and most importantly, connected together. The trend improves convenience for humans but poses the risks of unsecured information sharing. Network devices and collected information are vulnerable to different types of attacks, such as tracking, stealing, or hijacking. This is critical to certain services, such as national security.

The Cyber Security bachelor’s program at USTH meets the urgent need for human resources in this field for organizations, enterprises, and state agencies. Additionally, graduated students from this field can participate in research activities at academic institutes and universities.

All courses in Cyber Security bachelor are taught in English, including lectures, practical works, and tutorials. This international environment helps students to have huge advantages when compared to traditional domestic programs, especially with the ability to self-study and read documents. Most up-to-date cyber-security documents are in English and will not likely be translated to Vietnamese in the near future.
