What it is	Cybersecurity is the study of protecting computer systems, networks, and data from attacks and breaches. You learn defensive programming, threat analysis, and security design alongside core computer science and artificial intelligence concepts. The built-in co-op placements let you apply these skills in real security roles while you study, which suits people who want hands-on experience alongside theory.	You study business fundamentals across accounting, finance, marketing, human resources, and information systems. The co-op option lets you alternate between classroom semesters and paid work terms at companies, giving you real experience alongside your degree. This suits students who learn better by doing and want to build a professional network before graduating.
