Fortune: Cybersecurity Engineering master’s degree to advance your career

Cybersecurity is one of the fastest-growing industries in the world with rewarding salary opportunities for trained professionals. Fortune interviewed Professor Mike Stiber and highlights the Master of Science in Cybersecurity Engineering at the University of Washington Bothell as one of the nation’s few cybersecurity programs specific to engineering that may help advance your career.

“New technologies like AI are not only opportunities to make systems more robust against attack; they are also tools that can make the bad guys’ jobs easier,” Stiber tells Fortune. “Cybersecurity is our defense against such things and cybersecurity professionals are the digital makers and first responders keeping our increasingly digital lives safe.”
