Computer Science (BS): Cybersecurity Concentration
Program Overview
The Department of Computer Science in the College of Engineering at NC State 腦瞳排桴 offers a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science degree. The program is accredited by the Computing Accreditation Commission of泭插詁楚啦,泭.泭
Students complete the standard set of engineering first-year courses, which include courses in the humanities, chemistry, mathematics, physics, and computing. Students may apply to join the Department of Computer Science as degree-seeking students via the泭.泭
The Computer Science curriculum teaches students the skills needed to specify, design, implement, test, and deploy computer and software systems. Core courses provide a foundation for all students in programming languages, data structures, software engineering, systems, the theory of computation, the basics of building secure software and systems, teaming and communication, and the social and ethical dimensions of the practice of computer science.泭
All Computer Science majors must complete a team project in Senior Design. Projects under the auspices of the departments泭泭may have industrial sponsors, so student teams gain experience working jointly with industry representatives to achieve project goals. Senior Design teams are expected to solve a technical computing problem while effectively communicating their work and process to various audiences.
Cybersecurity Concentration
Securing cyberspace is one of the . We rely on software systems for everything from utilities, banking, and entertainment to business, travel, and health care. However, these systems are vulnerable to attack, which could have a significant impact on our society. Cybersecurity professionals are in high demand to protect the security and privacy of software systems for government and industry.泭泭
The Cybersecurity Concentration provides students with the opportunity to analyze security risks, define a threat landscape, and defend against threats from adversaries in software, networks, and systems. Students complete 21 hours of cybersecurity-focused coursework beyond the computer science core. Concentration students complete a concentration capstone project where they will explore cybersecurity solutions as part of an industrially sponsored project.
Students in the Cybersecurity Concentration are eligible to apply for the with the Department of Computer Science.
Departmental Information
The Department of Computer Science is located in Engineering Building II on NC States Centennial Campus.泭泭

One of the following two conditions regarding the major GPA is required: (l) the major GPA, which consists of all CSC courses attempted at NCSU, must be 2.0 or higher or (2) a student whose major grade point average is below 2.0 may graduate if no CSC course used to satisfy the major requirements has a grade below a C-.
Career Opportunities
Designing computer systems, and the software that runs on them is the job of computer scientists. Computer scientists find demand for their innovation, design, analysis, testing, and engineering skills across all domains. As a direct consequence of the increasingly critical role of computers in society, the discipline of computer science has enjoyed rapid growth for many years, with the trend likely to continue. 泭Employment projections indicate a critical nationwide shortfall in the supply of people skilled in computing and information technology, and a resulting steady rise in demand and salaries, for decades to come. Computer Science graduates from NC State are in high demand, including by employers that are extremely selective in their national recruiting.泭 The Cybersecurity concentration prepares students to defend our critical cyber infrastructure.
Anchoring one corner of the world-famous Research Triangle Park, and located in modern state-of-the-art teaching and research facilities on NC States Centennial Campus, the department and its students and faculty benefit from strong and active industry partnerships. NC State Computer Science is one of the top suppliers in the nation of new graduate hires to a number of high-tech companies, including several Fortune 500 companies, some with a substantial presence in the Research Triangle. Starting salaries for our undergraduates now average over $75,000 and show a steady increase. Opportunities are also plentiful for graduate study for those who wish to pursue the field in more depth.
