National Security Analytics and Strategic Technology Program

This is a one-year long, cohort program designed to prepare students for careers in the public and private sectors focused on cybersecurity, defense technology, intelligence, and other technical roles supporting national security.

Fall Quarter | Core Curriculum

Public vs. Private Sector

Types of National Security

Role of Emerging Technologies (e.g., AI)

Winter Quarter | Track-Specific Technical Training (students must opt into a single track)

Computer Science | Designed for students with stronger technical skills to pipeline into cybersecurity, software engineering, and other technical roles

Analytics and Intelligence | Designed for students from all backgrounds with a focus on data analysis, briefing generation, etc. for consulting, intelligence analysis, and other generalist roles

Spring Quarter | Simulations (both tracks)

Students from both tracks will come together in teams to address national security scenarios so students are able to leverage technical skills for coding and soft skills for brief generation and analysis
