The Bachelor of Science in Cyber Security Engineering (CYSE) prepares graduates to design, analyze, and implement cyber-resilient systems that protect physical, computing, and networked infrastructures. The program integrates cybersecurity principles into the engineering design process from the earliest stages of system development, emphasizing secure-by-design methodologies for complex cyber-physical systems.
The curriculum is grounded in mathematics, science, and engineering fundamentals and develops the analytical and design skills necessary to identify, assess, and mitigate risks in integrated systems. Students engage in laboratory experimentation, modeling and simulation, and multidisciplinary capstone design experiences addressing challenges in sectors such as transportation, energy, healthcare, critical infrastructure, finance, government, and defense.
The program prepares graduates for professional engineering practice, graduate study, and lifelong learning in cybersecurity engineering.
Program Educational Objectives
Graduates earning the Bachelor of Science degree in Cyber Security Engineering at George Mason University are expected within three to five years after graduation to be professionals who:
1. Establish themselves in a successful cyber security engineering career in industry, government, or academia
2. Communicate and perform ethically and effectively as members or leaders of multi-disciplinary teams on mission/business outcomes
3. Maintain current knowledge of evolving threats, risks and technology through continuing education, professional conferences, graduate school and on-the-job experiences
4. Have the ability to obtain and maintain professional licensing.
Accreditation
The Bachelor of Science in Cyber Security Engineering program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, https://www.abet.org, under the commission’s General Criteria and Program Criteria for Cybersecurity and Similarly Named Engineering Programs.
Policies
For policies governing all undergraduate degrees, see AP.5 Undergraduate Policies.
Plan of Study
All Cybersecurity Engineering students are assigned an academic advisor. With their advisor's guidance, each student must develop a plan of study outlining their course schedule for the degree program. This plan must be reviewed, updated, and signed by the advisor at least once per year.
Change of Major
See Change of Major for more information.
Grade Requirements
Students in the Cyber Security Engineering, BS program must complete all mathematics, science, and CEC courses with a grade of C or better.
Termination from the Major Policy
No math, science, or College of Engineering and Computing course that is required for the major may be attempted more than three times. Those students who do not successfully complete such a course within three attempts will be terminated from the major. Undeclared students in the College of Engineering and Computing who do not successfully complete a course required for a College of Engineering and Computing major within three attempts will also be terminated.
In addition, students in the College of Engineering and Computing with evidence of continued failure to make adequate progress toward declaring or completing a College of Engineering and Computing major will be terminated from the school. Adequate progress is determined by the major program. For more information, see AP.5.2.3 Termination from the Concentration or Major.
Once a student has attempted one of these courses twice unsuccessfully, the third attempt must be no later than the next semester of enrollment, excluding summers. Failure to take the course at that time will result in termination from the major. A third attempt of a College of Engineering and Computing course requires support by the student's major department as well as permission by the department offering the course. This permission is not guaranteed. If the student is unable to take the course when required, the student may request an extension to a future semester; extensions require approval of the student's advisor, their department, and the Associate Dean for Undergraduate Studies. The deadline for extension requests is the add deadline for the semester in which the course is required.
Students who have been terminated from a College of Engineering and Computing major may not register for a College of Engineering and Computing course without permission of the department offering the course. This applies to all undergraduate courses offered by the College of Engineering and Computing except IT 104 Introduction to Computing (Mason Core) and STAT 250 Introductory Statistics I (Mason Core) .
A student may not declare any major in the College of Engineering and Computing if the student has previously met the termination criteria for that major at any time, regardless of what the student's major was at the time the courses were taken.
