Abstract:

The rapid growth of both personal and professional dependence on the internet has spawned several new professions dealing with the management and protection of information assets in cyberspace. The George Washington University’s Online Engineering Programs unit has specialized in meeting such demands and has developed and launched three new online programs to help satisfy current demands.

These programs are the:
1. The Masters of Engineering in Cyber Policy and Compliance for those professionals who whish to be involved in the management of cyber assets and their protection.
2. The Masters of Engineering in Cyber Analytics for those professionals who wish to be on the front lines of protecting cyber assets.
3. The Masters of Engineering in Cloud Computing Management for those professionals who must be involved with managing or moving assets to the cloud.

In this poster, we overview the collaborative process for degree development, the program objectives, the final curriculum for each degree, and the approach to online delivery. We conclude with a report on student feedback from our first graduating classes.
