The Cybersecurity degree combines criminal justice and computer information systems coursework with a strong base of liberal arts courses to prepare you for transfer into a bachelor's degree program in Digital Forensics, Cybersecurity and other related programs.

This is primarily a transfer program, and the college has established agreements with several SUNY schools who offer related bachelor's degree programs.

Hudson Valley has two dedicated and secure computer laboratories designed specifically for this program.

This program is offered through the Engineering, Architecture, Construction, Computer Science and Mathematics Department.
