[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Cybersecurity! The federal govt is pushing hard for schools to add cybersecurity degree programs. It’s an area that is severely understaffed, insanely necessary, and consists of almost pure computer science/coding. It’s going to be a hugely hot major in a few short years so find a school that offers it and be ahead of the curve.  Many, many industries from telecom to finance to aviation (esp those with DoD contracts) are desperate to hire for these positions and currently resorting to any engineering major willing to learn as they work (my mechie is finding this out as he interviews).

(Same poster as above) Also, high level math is absolutely crucial in the most technical cybersecurity jobs. Plus, they are exceptionally well paying even with only a BS. Many will pay for their employees to get their Masters later on. I’m telling you this as a professional who has been involved in federal govt efforts to greatly increase and improve cybersecurity degrees in higher education. Your DD sounds like an ideal candidate.

Thank you for this. She was showing me a DOD Cyber Scholarship Program just the other day.[/quote]
