Johns Hopkins University's premier educational offering in Information Security and Assurance is the Master of Science in Security Informatics (MSSI) degree. This intensive full-time MSSI program spans three semesters, delivering unmatched educational, research, and career development opportunities in this fast-growing discipline.
This program is open to outstanding candidates who hold a Bachelors degree with sufficient technical exposure to information technology as preparation for the core technology courses. MSSI students are expected to have good computer knowledge in computer architecture/networking, programming, data structures, and discrete math. This can be shown through courses and in some cases through working experience and professional certification.
Students must have IELTS Academic Band Score equal to 7, or a minimum score of 600 (paper-based), 250 (computer-based), and 100 (internet-based) on the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL).
