MSc in Information Security – Royal Holloway, University of London
Study for an MSc in Information Security at Royal Holloway, University of London
Royal Holloway’s MSc was the first of its kind in the world. It was introduced in 1992 and the pioneering efforts of our Information Security Group (ISG) were recognised in 1998 when the College was awarded a Queen’s Anniversary Prize for the ISG’s work. The citation read:
“
This pioneering Group provides a unique national resource for the training of information security specialists and the development of highly secure communications and computer systems. It offers world-leading independent expertise in a field of crucial importance where trust and integrity are paramount.
”
Ever since the ISG was founded in the late 1980s the basic theme for its activities has been “academia and industry in harmony”. The main focus of the MSc is to produce information security specialists with a sound knowledge base and a clear understanding of how information security is implemented by industry and governments. To date, more than 1500 students have completed the MSc.
This non-mathematical programme has a wide range of modules (14 in total, including a new module in Digital Forensics), and is available full-time, part-time, distance learning, and CPD.
