Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our admissions process, curriculum structure, and career support services.
The Cybersecurity Architect program requires a foundational understanding of networking protocols and basic Linux administration. We provide a 40-hour preparatory module for students coming from non-technical backgrounds to ensure they are equipped for the rigorous curriculum. This includes basic bash scripting and an overview of the OSI model to ensure everyone starts on a level playing field.
Our hybrid model combines synchronous live-streamed lectures with in-person laboratory sessions at our Austin campus. Students attend virtual theory classes three evenings a week and participate in hands-on hardware and network configuration workshops every second Saturday. This ensures maximum flexibility while maintaining the critical face-to-face interaction required for complex technical tasks.
Yes, our career services team, led by Elena Rodriguez, provides comprehensive support including resume workshops, technical interview coaching, and direct introductions to our network of over 50 corporate partners in the Texas technology sector. We maintain an active alumni portal where graduates can access exclusive job postings and networking events with industry recruiters.
