Why choose this course
In an expanding digital age, protecting our data is of vital importance. Our Cyber Security MSc (formerly Information Security MSc) sits within our renowned School of Computer Science and Electronic Engineering and our outstanding Surrey Centre for Cyber Security.

The Surrey Centre for Cyber Security is an Academic Centre of Excellence in Cyber Security Research. The University, meanwhile, has been recognised as a gold-standard Academic Centre of Excellence in Cyber Security Education. Both accreditations were awarded by the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), which is a part of the Government Communications Headquarters.

You’ll also benefit from our strong links with local and international industry.

What you will study
Protecting digital information from unauthorised access and use and ensuring the resilience of supporting network infrastructure and systems are significant challenges for the continued technological development of our society.

The science behind this MSc connects various disciplines, from computer science, mathematics and business to design and critical analysis of concepts, mechanisms and technologies used in the depth and breadth of cyber security.

You’ll learn the foundations of systems and information security such as cryptography, and you’ll also be educated on advanced and state-of-the-art concepts linked to electronic payments or distributed ledgers. You will apply your knowledge in practice, for example through interacting with and programming secure applications using trusted platform modules (TPMs), which are mounted on Raspberry Pi computers in our labs.
