- Опубликовано: 10 фев 2015
- First of all I would like to say that I admire your work on youtube and many times your videos helped a lot to go through my university’s projects.
I’m currently doing my final year Computer Science Bachelor Degree and I have started thinking about my master for next year.
I’m a bit confuse thought about what to follow, cause I would like to follow something that it will have a really good impact on my future career, you know.
Im thinking about Master Degree on Computer Engineering cause Im getting really excited dealing with circuits and different components that you have to wire up and then write some code about it.
On the other hand Im thinking about CyberCrime. I think that not many students choose this, these days. So, I’ll have more chances to get a job easily when I finish. Im kind of excited for both, thats why Im kind struggling about what to follow.
All that is my point of view. I would really appreciate if you could share with me your professional point of view. It will really help me out a lot.
If you have any other subject in mind, that it worth to consider feel free to share it with me.

Don't compare a cyber security master's to a degree in criminal justice. In a cyber security degree you actually learn skills that make you useful to society.
But you can also learn that from a 10 year old in India.
Everyone's advice: Get an IT job and build up experience.
Every job post: 3-5 years experience required.
its ridiculously frustrating and i hope those recruiters burn in hell
@@abbs3432 xD
It doesn't matter they just say that you can get the job anyways
When I was younger I aspired to be a cyber security engineer. I have done so after a lot of years in the field. Here are my thoughts,
Please do not get a masters degree in 'cybercrime'. I agree with Eli on this somewhat; Unless you're looking to be a manger in the future this will not help you one bit. Get some experience with hands on technical engineering first.
If this is something that you have burning desire to do, than this plan should help you.
Start off by getting a CCNA, CCNP and some experience. Learn operating systems Windows/Linux(you'll need to know both). Once you have this general basis under your belt you can get into the fun stuff.
Programming;
python/powershell/Javascript/C/Assembly
I know you said this 1 year ago lol but thanks for the heads up
Screen shotting this for my Evernote information collection. I’m aiming to start a career in tech, preferably in cyber security with no experience so I’m completely emersed in research right now. Thank you !
Great input. And honestly that last bit you said applies to MOST fields. Alot of fields have their own nuances and you MUST love what you do in order to thrive. My advice to anyone searching for a career: dont chase after what you think you SHOULD do and go after what you DESIRE to do..and you will find sucess.
Thanks chief
Thank you!!
I found this timely!! Very good advice and thanks!!!
Thanks a lot. Never thought this way. A valuable perspective.
thanks a lot sir , now i am in 2nd year of computer science ( B.eng. )
in my first year i changed my major to Computer science from Cyber Security after watching this and now i am doing better
Good honest advice, make sense, thank you!
I really appreciate this video. I myself received a bachelor's in criminal justice due to my interest in law enforcement. Half way down the road I learned having this degree wasn't needed and there's really no job market with this degree. I eventually asked myself what if I didn't get into law enforcement (NYPD). I would have to pursue another field and spend more money and time again for school.
It gives me some sense of relief when I hear other people who have gone through the same dilemma as I and have a successful career. I myself was lucky enough to get accepted to a tech school were I will pursue a bachelor's degree in computer engineering but it will only take me 3 full semesters to get it done. Many of my credits transferred so I'm not stuck with taking prerequisite classes.
Anyway, I just wanted to thank you for giving me more confident in pursuing this new career path and look forward doing work in hardware engineering.

totally agree, getting real world experience and having a "real" job is invaluable, you learn things that school can't teach you.
*In my opinion, Information Technology doesn't distinguish between any IT field. You can graduate with a degree in Computer Engineering and land a job as a Web Developer as long as you are good.* Computer Science - Software Engineer - Computer Engineer - Network Engineer - Information Security Engineer - *They are all the same as long as you are good at what you do.*
i did degree and i doing hardware and network is it valuble can i get a job in america with this
At some places, the 'engineering' term makes an important distinction between knowing anything about electronics/hardware or not. But a lot of Computer Science programmes (like those at Cambridge) include an electronic hands-on component (like you'd get at most engineering schools) as well - making it very similar to Computer Engineering. But I agree, all these terms are way to finicky - in reality most of them are the same thing.
hi Ben J .. I have 2 years of experience into networking . Is it good get a Masters degree in network security ...Please suggest me ...
thanks in advance ..
it is never a bad thing to pursue a higher degree
I got my bachelors from UMGC and landed a job in 6 months. You are absolutely correct that in a years time your choice will change. I went from a jr. network engineer to a jr. linux admin and I love every second of it now. two years ago I barley knew what linux even was, now it's my full-time job. very informitive video sir.
Thank you! Very helpful!
He's so anti cyber security, I think he has some secrets haha
He's not against it, but he says that the subject can be learned even through computer engineering because it's such an easy to learn subject. If you just study to become a law enforcement, you won't have any other options other than that. However, if you study let's say mathematics, or computer engineering, you can still work for cyber security if you get a training in hacking and such. It makes sense.
Let's just say that he wouldn't be against it if he had something to hide. :)
I think it is understandable, cyber security is deceptive because there are so many cyber security jobs that need to be filled but working in Cyber security is usually a senior position therefore a Cyber security degree isn't exactly meaningless but a lot harder to get a job out of uni.
I subscribe to your channel every time,you are so funny and real lol man ppl have no confidence
Thank you so much the advise is helpful
Whoever asked this question, I hope you listened to his advice!! Not everyone will tell you the truth, most people just say things you want to hear (marketing gimmicks, etc.). Wish someone had told me this before I did my Master's degree. This stuff is invaluable; the early 20s are very precious, and earning a solid work experience during these years will pay back over the years even though it might not seem like a lucrative option at the time. Accept those minimum wages/internships, whatever comes your way and GET INTO THE FIELD!! Keep build your resumé, but never stop learning either!!
Like he said, the best option is to take up a Master's degree while working, so you have a secure job and looks great on your resumé too!! Even better if you manage to make your employer sponsor your tuition (partly or in full), etc. That's the safest way to go imo. Academia is mostly just a booming business these days :( so if you REALLY want to get an extraordinary learning experience and develop bankable connections/grow your network while doing it, your options are VERY LIMITED (I mean in single digits ;)). Anyone reading this, wish you all the best in your future endeavors!! Carpé Diem!!!
I started a masters on cybersecurity at UMBC and I have almost 2 years working as developer and have a bachelor's in CS
So how was the masters program and is it helpful in real life job opportunities and practical applications?
hey eli what about computer information systems vs computer science which is more profitable for the person who wants to go the security route but also wants to know the core basics of computers without negating much of that core knowledge base kind of like what they do with cyber security.?
i figured out this guy has a speech impediment. first video I've seen of him.... i love it lol!
i could listen to him all day, he makes me happy when talking about things such as these i consider too. i decided myself cyber security, hopefully a right choise. :D :D
Why this guy give bad feedback about cyber security, While its actually Is most highly recommended field in 2018 and is growing field
He's a shill.. that's why.
i think he focusing on someone straight out of college and comparing to Comp Sci
after listen to him . I’m have completed doing my Computer Science Bachelor Degree and Master Science in Computer Networking, I have started thinking about what to do next year. I’m a bit confuse thought about what to follow, Recently I did the PhD Cyber Crime after listen to his video really good impact on my future career, you know. Im thinking about either Bachelor/Master Degree on Computer Engineering cause Im getting really excited dealing with circuits and different components that you have to wire up and then write some code about it. Any Idea
because if you actually listened to what he said in the video: it's limiting career wise: most computer science degrees can allow you to learn cyber security as part of a module/specialism: if you are a computer scientist YOU DO NOT NEED A MASTERS IN CYBER SECURITY TO DO CYBER SECURITY: anyone who thinks this is an idiot and you are losing out on career prospects in other fields just to be limited in learning a niche skill set.
Because everyone thinks there a code expert all of a sudden, computer science has a better job growth then cyber security
He's right, spend a year or so out in the workforce figuring out if you enjoy what you're doing. I got my Bachelor's in IT Management and I found that I actually enjoyed spending my free time working on Cybersecurity stuff more, even though I worked as an IT Manager full time. I am now pursuing my Master's in Cybersecurity and am very confident, happy, and excited about my future. However I disagree about cybercrime being a "very small niche" especially if you look into any Federal jobs. It's a huge opportunity to help out this country with what's going on right now in the world.
where do you take this Master's in Cybersecurity ? is there online option please tell me I want to join ?
I had a similar career experience. I got bachelor's degree in Management of Information Systems, and I didn't really like all the management stuff in my program but I was already almost done with my degree. I had an intern on my last semester where I got involved with support and working with network hardware. This opened my eyes to a very different and new field in IT. I have been working with endpoint management systems for the last 17 out of my 27 year career. My college degree might have contributed less than 10% of what I ever needed. I learned the rest hands on while working at each company through the years. All other engineers that I know including those in the Security Team are just regular engineer s who did some self-study and/or got some training and certification while already at work. I'm talking about a $10 billion company with nearly 450 IT staff. One of the level 1 Security engineer was just a guy who was promoted from desktop support team.
Thanks for your video. I work for the Fed gov and want to get my MS in Cybersecurity. I have not worked in this field at all but served in the USMC for 11 years. I'd be in the Policy track of the degree program and wanted to get your thoughts on this. It is from the Ivy.
Thank you eli !
I think that you should consider the school first then look at the courses in the curriculum. Look at the business and cyber law courses in the curriculum because at the Masters and Doctorate levels understanding; PKI,SOX,Safe harbor, PCI, HiPPA, CIPA and yes even DMCA (PKI and PCI are the only non U.S Federal laws I mention) is more important than learning new buzz words or scare tactics. I say the same for engineering with this word of caution engineering Masters programs are not easy at all
I'm in the same page here. I have a computer science bachelor degree and i was thinking about doing a master in computer engineering with a concentration in Computer Networks and Computer Security . I know its not the same as a cyber security master since the program its more about building the system rather than penetrated and analysed. But my question is, would be worth it? or will have almost the same consequences has if it was a master in cyber security?
I've done a bit of cyber security, and I found getting a degree in networking is a much better idea. You will need to know how the network works overall, and it gives you a leg up on everyone else.
CCNA Security or CCNP Security
I agree.. know a lot of people getting degrees in IASE (Information Assurance Security Engineering) and they recommend networking too
Tech Reviews and Help Networking as an IT?
What if the Cyber Crime program at this school has Networking as well?
*****
It maybe worth while.
Think of it like this. Hacking is basically the same thing we do when we manipulate a person. Ask yourself how do we manipulate someone. You will find any means of communications. Seeing, hearing, smell, touch, etc. When looking at the programs, you need to ask yourself if it teaches how computers talk. Talk between each other, talk to the software, talk to the Bios, etc.
Tech Reviews and Help THIS!!!!!!!! :)
What’s your thought on master degree in software engineering? I already have a B.S. Computer Information Systems, I have been out of college for 4 years
I am in a CyberSecurity MS degree at the University of Dallas and the breadth of the program, while still being focused, actually makes a very good program. I would highly recommend the program, honestly, because it is taught by instructors who are actually IN their fields (instead of my undergraduate program where half the instructors were academics without real world experience) while teaching.
hello, I speak to you after 6 years😂 , is master degree worse?
What about Information technology: software track ?? Do you need a masters ?? I’m planning on getting masters on software engineering. And my minor is business analytics. Please make a video about this
I was thinking about having my major as Cyber security (focusing on intrusion detection) and having a minor in criminal justice. Is this a good idea?
Good advice.
Eli the Computer Guy That is so damn true!!!
I did my bachelor's degree in computer science and I did my master's degree in cyber security and then I have been looking for a job for more than two years...
+Andrejs Igumenovs That's wierd. Is it just because there isn't demand in your area (have you tried looking further away)? Is it because you lack hands-on experience? Have you asked them why you didn't get the job when they reject your application?
(comment deleted)
vanillagirlca I am in Cambridge, UK now. Hope to finally land a job here...
are you a serial killer or something????? ;) I'm kidding lol, it's like the largest industry that's demanding jobs.
hey can you make a video about electrical and computer engineering (ece)
I am a marine engineer with 10 years experience at sea,so my subjects in bachelors and my experience are not anywhere connected to cyber security,but I am highly interested to go into cybersecurity ,not just because it is a promising job ,but I have keen interest towards it since a long time ,but did not have any guidance on how to get knowledge about the same ,which college and course offers in depth cybersecurity training?
I will be leaving my promising which pays me 10k USD per month and will be going for this even it pays me just enough for plain bread and butter
The Cyber Security Industry is crying out for talent - this message seems at odds with reality?
+Mike Loginov Agreed. That's what I've heard as well, although many companies seem to want someone with experience - maybe the lack of experience is the issue?
+Mike Loginov I agree. The government agency I work for has been looking for a Security professional for 2 months and they haven't been able to fill that position.
+Mike Loginov I got a job w 70k salary in information security (two cyber security internships) right out of college.. Not bad for someone with an IT business degree.
CyberPunk733 u make me laugh my pants off. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Eddie Jump I make 60 k selling cellphones, that's sad.
I will graduate with a bachelor's degree in information technology next year but I`m thinking to get a Masters's degree in computer engineering since I`m interested in computer components and hardware in general, what would you recommend?
I have my Masters in Cyber security, I make 250K a year before bonus, Much better Idea than choosing to do an MBA. You have to think the more we move toward a cybernetic world and more hook up apps that come out and fin tech that is coming out someone has to keep user information safe. Companies are paying big money to say they have the best on the block. No one wants to get sued my advice do the program make the money, find somewhere to invest it.
Hey, I'm about to finish mine next May. Where do you suggest I look?
Jourdane Hamilton Michigan, Salary isn't the highest but great place to get the experience. Huge fin tech in Michigan. if you can ride it out you will Make the money, but not right in the begining.
BlkJ19 I'm in the DC market already working. what do I need to do to get to that 200k Mark?
Jourdane Hamilton every where is different, every employer is too. What does your day to day consists of, what sector do you work in, how much are you currently clearing?
BlkJ19 from where u had done masters in cybersecurity
This is all I will say...
Thank you.
Just graduated with a B.A in Political science. And am realizing how worthless it is. I can't go back to school. How do i get into Cyber Security.
Should i start with certifications ? Or is not possible.
Any advice would help thank you.
the best advice I've heard in a long LONG time
Are you saying that I should change my degree from cyber security to something else (pref. networking and telecomunication)?
thank you bro, i really appreciate your effort,your videos are doing great in the life of many, i am a computer hardware engineer, i have been working for about 3 yrs now, i was not so fortunate to attend the university, i only did a diploma program after my high school, but thank God i teach graduates computer hardware engineering.when i moved from my country to another country South Africa to be precise i realized the demand for computer repairs was very low, so i was considering networking,and that was what led me to this video, please friends, whats your advice for me?
Are repairs the only thing computdr hardware engineers are good for?
If you have the resources (time, money, cheap/free source of knowledge) I'd say go for it
Agree completely, you can make 100k with bachelors in CS. Just go ahead and get a job.
I am so glad I found this video. Saved me from signing up into cyber crime program.
why
What about the degree in information systems with a focus on cybersecrity offered by the University of Alabama in Huntsville? iv already been accepted I'm a senior in high school.
The Coventry University (UK) MBA in Cyber Security a distance learning Masters is well worth concidering for any one interested in a leadership roles linked to helping organisations manage the risk of a cyber incursion.
Eli, if there is any single thing that I can appreciate most in all of the videos I have seen you do is sharing your real-life wisdom. That example of the advice the cop gave you after pulling you over is one of those many eye-opening experiences that many of us would never have thought about. Great channel, keep up the good work, and thank you so much for everything you do for us.
I agree with this guy.
eli I notice you got coli flower on your ear. did you at any point compete in wrestling?
Is he really equating cyber security with criminal justice? LOL!
Which Software do you use to Record Video and Remove Background Noise
I finished with my A.A.S. in Software Engineering in May of this coming year (2016). I need to get a bachelors degree. I was looking at WGU and one of my teachers actually showed me a program he is a sponsor for in Cyber Security downstate for a Uni. I was actually going to do it, now you've got me questioning it lol. I HATE, HATE HAAAATE programming outside of GUI's, so I'm trying to stay away from certain aspects of that lol while still maintaining myself as marketable.
Damn, I wish I would have heard this advice 20 years ago.
WOAH!!! I had an Armatron too!!!
Hey I am from Pakistan... My graduation in bachelors in Computer science and 1.5 year experience in the field of computer science... My question is should I go to MS Data science or should I go to MBA supply chain field..? Plz reply me
Those two which one is good and makes good money
?
Is a degree in computer science or IT mean you should be a programming expert...
I'm a on leave graduate in computer science (major) hope to do Masters in related area of IT or CS but I'm not interested in coding..
So is there any non-programming jobs available for CS graduates...
There are plenty of jobs available for non coders. I was in the same boat. You could do network admin, IT analysis, data analysis, computer engineering, hardware engineering, etc. Technology is so diverse as a whole, there's really nothing you cant do
Tyler McGee what is a data analysis job? What technology do I need to know for that? I am not so good at coding too.
Hello eli, I am kinda lost and I would like to know the differences between the computer since and computer engineering and IT. Thanks
+Movies trailer Computer science will focus most on coding, algorithms, and understanding how architecture affects performance. Computer science would be good if you want to do software development. Computer engineering is a branch of engineering - think of it as electrical engineering meets computer science. Computer engineering (or electrical engineering) would be most useful if you want to actually go into chip design, hardware design, or electronics design. You probably don't need a degree if you want to go into IT. Get some certifications and some experience, and learn how to solve problems your own. From what I've seen, entry level IT pays the worst of the three, although IT managers at larger companies can be paid pretty well. I think IT is going to be a shrinking industry due to things like Office 365 and other cloud services reducing the need for administrators, whereas computer science and engineering are still likely to grow in the near future.
Hey guys!! I am about to make a decision whether to do an Msc in Cyber Security or in Data science-Big Data!What's your opinion?I find that Cyber Security is sometimes more theoretical and about applying rules whether on Data science is more like fun.Please enlighten me a little bit.
I am on your boat too. Do u know if cyber security needs more networking course knowledge? Networking seems a bit boring to me.
I think that basic knowledge of networking would be useful but it is something that will be learnt while you will be studying.If your question is whether you will be dealing a lot with networks the answer is that it depends on the company but i think that of course you will have to work with networks at time to time.But dont be afraid that you will constantly work on networks,its not the case.
To study should I go into cybersecurity or web development
Hi bro, my name is Edward and i'm 15 years old... I've been watching your videos for a long time now, and i I've learned a couple stuff actually.... i decided that i wanted to become a software developer, and i have been investigating about this but i haven't got my mind clear yet..... if i study computer science, would i be able to program, make and design software?... when i was younger, i thought of becoming a hacker too, and i still like the idea.... so the main thing here, is that i would like to get a job as a software developer (because software developers have good salaries in the U.S), but at the same time i would like to have experience in hacking(coding, penetrating, breaching, etc.)... which career should i pick in order to have experience in both programming and hacking?
by the way, i'm from San Andres island/Colombia.. i hope my English was clear and understandable.
Thanks.
If you wish to become a software developer, I would recommend to study Software Engineering. It is more practical versus Computer Science, which is more theoretical.
J Lew Thanks Bro✌
which subject is needed after 10 if we want to do cyber security
Having high Degrees combined with knowledge will give privilege over others. I will think about your advise after my Doctorate . My cousin is in Africa Working there while teaching in universities in USA and doing many others stuff all round the world . He would not be able to do this if he only has a Bs but he has 2 Masters and a Doctorate. So please stop asking certain questions when it comes to your future and what you intend to do . Many people fail because they did not listen to their inner voice .
I know some cyber guys that they don't know how the network works. People want to jump to the cyber field without experience as system admin or network admin.
did the computer guy just cursed, wow my dreams shattering.
What field of study or research should I be In a computer engineering masters, there are many but I don't know exactly what each is and their jobs, I want something that is a mixture of hardware and software and allows you to make computers parts and parts for any device that use a computer and the software for it, what should I pick ?
+Raycust Ramoon It sounds like you want two worlds. Wanting to design physical computer parts is Electrical Engineering. Computer Engineering will have you writing software for the part while understanding the part itself. I would look into an emphasis in Embedded Systems, ASIC/FPGA design ?
+Raycust Ramoon Actually you may want to go the FPGA route. Because the "software" for FPGAs isn't really software, you are describing hardware with the FPGA software. That may get you the better of both worlds ?
Matt F well what field is that, is it integrated circuits, I searched universities and didn't find such field
+Raycust Ramoon You won't see(or atleast I have not seen) an area of focus for ASIC/FPGA. There are usually a few classes that touch on FPGAs and then they are used for research.
Here is an example www.uttyler.edu/academics/graduate/electrical-engineering-degree.php
towards the bottom you will see a class "FPGA design" and this happens to be part of the Electrical Engineering degree. On MIT's open courseware site, FPGA is just a part of the class ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-computer-science/6-884-complex-digital-systems-spring-2005/
So to answer your question, you will need to contact the college you are interested in and let them know you are looking for as much exposure to FPGA's as possible.
Matt F what is FPGA and how is that a field of research you can make your masters in, in computer engineering and I only heard of certain fields like power engineering, networking, software engineering, integrated circuits and so on and so forth
Is an online bachelor's degree in computer science going to be worth it?
iit has program that's IT and management with Master in cyber Security
follow your passion...simple..even painting..why not..just be passionate..u need to love your job..dont do a degree just to make sure u can get a job...
Your right but many people who don't like the job makes a lot of money today is pretty much practical because everybody wants to make a lot of money.
i just have done my BS in telecommunication and networking and now i am confused that whether should i do master in cyber security or master in telecommunication and networking.. can u tell me which one will be better please reply
Masters in T& N. You already have a BS. Go 100% in so you have a professional degree in your field. Only minor in cyber security if you plan to get a masters down the road.
Lol, I thought it was just me but cyber security is more popular than I thought.
I am From India , I Have Just Completed My BCA and Im Looking for MAsters In IT. Suggets Me Some Best Course That Have Great Impact On My Future. One Thing I'll Let U Know That Im Weak in Coding part
just tell us please which these school are good in cyber security ... please I would like to know it
does it worth having a master degree after 10 years of experience and at the age of 34?
I have a 2.7GPA for my Bachelor in Computing & Information Technology..What are the best areas for me to get a Masters degree in and should I go fulltime and leave my job if I am not in the field already or is there a great online degree which will allow me to work in another country.?
+Andrew Lawe I'm master of computer science. Leave your jobs if you think you need to speed the time consuming for master degree. Otherwise don't
Cool
Here's a question...i want to make a career change and get into computers like ethical hacking and or cyber security...buuuuut I'm 36 years old, so any advise
I'm 40 and I just finished my BS in Computer Science, a Security+ cert, and working on a Windows 10 cert. I was an electrician. It's all a matter of how bad do you want it.
Is that an ARMATRON in the background?
Start learning the computer engineering side of things now. It will boost your programming knowledge. If you know hardware then you can write some really nasty viruses. You can take advantage of the backdoors in the hardware.
What do you think about a robotics engineering masters degree?
im wondering the same thing
so is taking a masters in computer science also good ..?
Im doing my masters because i sit with no job for 2 years with bachelors degree in computer science
Dang you must went to a shit school
what is the difference between applied computer science degree and computer science? degree
I'm a chemist, I can't see getting a job in law enforcement with a chemistry degree. No one wants to work in the crime lab, lousy pay, over worked and n recognition! However if you have a good science degree and learn some computer science, you can get a job in computer science. Look at all the "physics majors" now writing software. You are hired for your brains, ability to learn, more than what you know now!
Crypton this is future!
Currently doing my bachelors in Cyber security and I'm planning to pursue a masters in computer science or data science, I really am enjoying my degree at the moment.
How did it go? If you started cyber sec bachelor u wont have any it knowledge is it true?
@@smadi0x86 I’m nearly finishing my second year and whoever said that it’s a complete lie, all Universities you don’t learn enough just from their curriculum and you have to put in time and effort to learn other things by yourself, extra reading materials and a lot of practising with ethical hacking, coding etc, nevertheless I have learnt a lot and it is very useful but I will tell you this, if you’re a very disciplined person who can time manage effectively I would say that you don’t need to go into university as there are many courses available online but as for me, I’m very lazy and I know after a few months down the line I would stop self studying, University helps me stay disciplined because I know I’m paying a lot and what I’m sacrificing. Best of luck in the future
A little bit of social engineering on the police officer, Eli? Haha!
With the whole Russian hacking explosion as of late i would imagine a cybersecurity degree would be of big value.
I am currently doing my btech in computer engineering technology. but i heard tht the salary of an engineer is way higher than a technologist. what should i do? if i do masters in computer engineering or software engineering or computer science..will that help me? can i make my transition from technology degree in bachelors to engineering degree in masters? if yes, how so? please advice.
I live in New Jersey but I am on F1 visa
Thank you for the suggestion. :)
my question is whether i will be able to make my transition from "engineering technology" to "engineering"? I'm doing bachelor's of technology in computer engineering technology but i want to pursue my master's in computer science. Is that possible to do?
WHAT SCHOOL'S DO YOU RECOMMEND FOR CYBER SECURITY?
Universiti Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia )offering a Bachelor degree in Computer System Security for 4 years.
ETH Zurich
Why you stopped making videos ?
So if I am majoring in Cybersecurity, do I need CompTIA certs?
Danial khan yes
What about data science.
🎯
I see so cybersecurity is just a narrowed down computer science almost.
Clean the dust on that table please :D
Hello I am in india
I wand different between
cyber security vs software engineer
What qualifies EWlithecomputerGuy for his opinion of the different degrees? NOTHING!! I have a cyber security degree and I was offered a six figure salary, just on my degree alone, right from the start of my graduation from college with my newly earned Bachelor of Science degree in Cybersecurity/Information Assurance.
The best and most sure way to get into the Cyber Security industry is by joining the US Military. The reason for this is because they have the centers and program training for it plus, you will receive governmental clearance to access this kind of secured information. The reason most Cyber candidates can't land the job is because of passing background checks. Most Cyber Security jobs require "Clearance" more than 50% are Top Secret, Some Secret and Public Trust. Meaning credit checks, no crimes committed in your past, good reference checks, and most of all "Experience". So, Essentially Eli is right if you don't want to serve the country its best to stay away from this program.
I don't think a minor crime such as a misdemeanor DUI should keep a talented person from the cyber security field. A plethora of written recommendations, certs, and an accredited degree should trump a minor, nonviolent crime easily.
Wtf is cyber crime for him? Does he even knows the difference between criminal justice and actual Cyber Security!? 🙄
its cybersecurity not cyber crime,..many things come under cyber security than cyber crime.
rajnesh chaturvedi thank you! This was making me cringe the whole video. My bachelors program is officially called "Information Assurance" which is even more broad
