Even if your kid chooses not to go into the cybersecurity field, this course will give them a valuable look at what it takes to stay safe in today’s digital world.

Teaching Methodology:

On our project-based courses, you will work on a group project which is defined by your tutor/facilitator and based on a complex real-life problem. Each course will have a theme which connects all subjects, to encourage collaboration between groups and peer feedback. In taught sessions, your tutor will equip you with the practical subject knowledge required to address the problem you have been assigned, and you will take ownership of your project during group work facilitated by teaching assistants. To learn from industry experts, you will also have interactions with, innovators, and experts to immerse you in the current issues defining your subject area and the overall course theme. Your course will culminate in a group presentation to peers, staff and external experts.
