Cyber Security & Privacy (MSc)

Digitalisation is one of the megatrends of our time and is transforming more and more areas of social, economic and private life. This opens up great opportunities in a wide variety of areas such as the design and development of digital applications and technical assistance systems, automation or digitalised administrative processes.

At the same time, digitalisation brings new kinds of risks: cyber attacks, fake news, leaks of large amounts of personal data and the digital division of society. That is why we need solutions and experts for cyber security & privacy for successful and responsible digitalisation. You want to take responsibility? You want to help shape the future? You want to develop secure, privacy-enhancing and participation-oriented solutions for digital infrastructures, services and applications? Then the Master's programme Cyber Security & Privacy at Bonn-Rhein-Sieg University of Applied Sciences is the right choice for you!
