Master of Science in Cybersecurity (STEM)

at EDUCO - Stevens Institute of Technology USA

The finance world's rapid transition to a digital discipline has created incredible opportunities for experts in computer science, statistics, economics and mathematics to develop solutions to increasingly complex problems, such as how to value an asset, how to assess risk and the smartest ways to manage a portfolio. Quants are some of the most-sought professionals on Wall Street for their coding versatility and ability to model financial data to drive better decision-making.

The Financial Engineering program at Stevens resides in the School of Business, giving it a practical orientation that few other programs offer. Lessons emphasize how technical tools can address specific challenges in the markets, while preparing you to identify inefficiencies, recognize opportunities and develop innovative new products. The Stevens program also recognizes the systemic nature of financial markets and prepares you for the challenges of working in large, interconnected environments.

Learn the theoretical knowledge and practical skills necessary to analyze big data for functional application in business and technology with a Data Science Master's degree.

Demand for data scientists who can glean insights from the wealth of information made available through modern technologies to aid in informed decision-making is on the rise. The data science master’s program at Stevens instills the theoretical knowledge and practical skills required for dealing with the contemporary collection, exploration, analysis, and modeling of data along with the related challenges pertaining to inference and prediction.

This interdisciplinary program prepares students for careers in fintech, business intelligence and analytics, academia, and database management, as well as government positions requiring strong skills in data analysis. Students in the Data Science Master's program will analyze complex data, including large-scale databases, and apply state-of-the-art modeling and visualization techniques. They will participate in simulations of cyberattacks and create effective defense strategies, as well as study, in-depth, the algorithms and optimization schemes underlying the latest business analytics methods.

From market and technological changes to policy and budgetary uncertainty, the space industry has been faced with increasing challenges that transcend technical boundaries.

The Master of Engineering in space systems engineering at Stevens, delivered by the primary authors in the field of space systems today, provides experienced professionals with the edge needed to excel in this increasingly complex and competitive industry. Stevens is a recognized provider of space systems engineering education to NASA employees and space industry professionals worldwide, taught in partnership with Teaching Science and Technology, Inc. (TSTI).

In today's space related enterprises, change is the only constant. To fully utilize existing opportunities and explore new ones within a modern space-centric enterprise, it is crucial to have both the technical knowledge necessary to design cutting edge space missions and associated products, as well as the systems knowledge that is required to operate in an increasingly complex technical, business and policy environment.

At Stevens, the graduate certificate in space systems engineering and the master's degree in either space systems engineering or systems engineering with a concentration in space systems allows professionals working in government and the private space-related enterprises to combine robust technical education in space systems design and development, and key space systems processes, with a holistic understanding of systems engineering principles.

The physics master’s program prepares physics and applied physics students for an academic career path and the pursuit of a Ph.D. in physics, as well as a research-based career in industry.

Physics students will build upon core concepts introduced within a physics undergraduate degree program, studying the fundamental branches of physics while simultaneously developing advanced mathematical and problem-solving skills. The program aims to establish general expertise in physics while also promoting critical thinking skills for multidisciplinary applications.

While many physics graduates go on to obtain a Ph.D., many others also work within research roles in sectors and industries as varied as their interests–defense, aerospace, government, education, healthcare, energy, materials, technology, computing and IT.

Unlike financial engineers, who use mathematical modeling and computer science skills to create algorithms and tools, financial analysts combine their programming skills with talents in data analysis and statistics to design innovative solutions to finance problems. They also use excellent business and communication skills to assess client needs and make recommendations to executive teams.

The Stevens master’s in Financial Analytics teaches professionals to apply their physics, statistics or engineering skills to the lucrative finance industry. You’ll learn from faculty whose insights are changing how the industry is thinking about concepts like machine learning, data modeling and optimization in finance. You’ll take courses in one-of-a-kind financial labs, home to the data analysis and visualization tools used on Wall Street. Most importantly, our location on the Hudson River ensures you’ll have regular interaction with industry recruiters in New York City, just 10 minutes away by train or ferry.

The cybersecurity master’s program is designed for security professionals who seek an in-depth understanding of the technical knowledge related to information security as well as an appreciation of the organizational, social, managerial and legal aspects of security and privacy.

Cybersecurity is a high-growth field currently experiencing a demand far greater than the supply of trained professionals available. The White House has reported that in the coming years as many as 30,000 new cybersecurity professionals are needed by the United States government alone.

The Analytics MBA at Stevens is a STEM program for recent college graduates who have studied a technical discipline, have limited professional experience and want to quickly earn an advanced degree to compete for exciting jobs at the world’s most prestigious companies — where, increasingly, even early-career work requires a master’s.

Here, faculty present traditional themes like strategy, marketing, finance and accounting through an analytical, problem-solving lens, with an emphasis on applying data-intensive methods to industry challenges. And the program’s structure encourages your personal and professional development through career support, mentorship and business immersion.

Media and broadcast engineering lies at the intersection of audio/video processing, networking, software design and complex system integration. The media and broadcast engineering master's program provides students with a comprehensive foundation in all aspects of media production, delivery and management, and prepares them for relevant careers as media and broadcast engineers, network managers and developers, streaming media developers and project managers for broadcast networks.

The program provides similar education and opportunities to professionals in the field wishing to enhance their skillsets. It also covers media engineering in emerging media publishing channels such as through the Internet and mobile applications.

New developments in robotics, internet security and wireless networking are often the result of hardworking electrical engineers. Graduate study in electrical engineering can lead to fascinating and lucrative careers in industry, government or business, as well as further study in a doctoral program.

At Stevens, graduate students participate in cutting edge faculty research projects funded by the National Science Foundation, Air Force Research Laboratory, Office of Naval Research and various private organizations.
