MSc Cybersecurity

I am planning to pursue cybersecurity masters from UK and I have shortlisted Greenwich University, University of Hertfordshire, Coventry University.
Are these universities a good choice or should I look for any other university

Hi @Student29_1 ,
Great to hear you're considering our MSc Cyber Security 🙂
Here at Herts, we provide the right environment and resources for you to achieve your ambitions. We're a campus uni just 25 minutes north of London, meaning you get the best of both worlds in terms of student experience and the opportunities open to you. We might be biased, but here a few facts that show why Herts is a great choice for your postgraduate studies:

•

We're ranked 2nd overall and 3rd for computer science in the UK in the latest Postgraduate Taught Experience Survey (PTES, Advance HE, 2023), reflecting the quality and experience of our provision

•

90% of our computer science research is ranked as world-leading in the most recent Research Excellence Framework (REF, 2021)

•

You have an optional one-year industry placement on the Cyber Security course, giving you invaluable experience and connections to boost your career path

•

You would learn in our brand new School of Physics, Engineering and Computer Science (aka Spectra), opening later this year - this incredible facility will provide experiential learning as well as high tech computer labs and more

Have you been to any of our postgrad open events? We run these online and the next one is coming up in March - this would be a great way for you to talk directly to the course leader and find out more: you can book here.

Hope this helps but please let me know if you have any specific questions.

All the best,
