DEPARTMENT OF COMPUTER SCIENCE
Secure Software Engineering Graduate Certificate
NKU now offers a new graduate certificate in the field of secure software engineering. The goal of this program is to give developers advanced knowledge of principles and best practices in the incorporation of security throughout the software development lifecycle. The thousands of software vulnerabilities reported each year indicate that many organizations are not well positioned to integrate security into the development process. This certificate program aims to tackle this problem directly.
Credits earned in this 12-hour program can be counted toward a full Masters degree in Computer Science. Completion of this certificate requires the following courses:
- CSC 582 Computer Security
- CSC 601 Advanced Programming Workshop
- CSC 640 Advanced Software Engineering
- CSC 666 Secure Software Engineering
Depending on your background, you may need to enroll in some prerequisite courses before beginning this certificate (such as CSC 502 and CSC 540).
