Accelerated Information Security Policy and Management Master's Programs

Heinz College / Heinz College Master's Degree Programs / Master of Science In Information Security Policy and Management / Accelerated Information Security Policy and Management Master's Programs

Done faster. Change sooner.

Students with the drive to develop as leaders and enter the job market more quickly can earn their undergraduate and Information Security Policy and Management master's degrees together in five years instead of the typical six.

An accelerated program isn’t just a savings of time. It’s also a considerable savings in cost, and for undergrads coming from outside of Pittsburgh, it offers an expedited path to experience the benefits of two distinct educational and cultural environments, and to more quickly come into contact with the world-famous CERT Division of CMU’s Software Engineering Institute, an institution considered a national asset in cybersecurity.

The Heinz College MSISPM program has collaborative agreements in place with the following institutions:

Carnegie Mellon University
3 years CMU undergraduate (any major)/1 year integrated/1 year at Heinz College

Allegheny College
3 years at Allegheny/2 years at Heinz College

Bethany College
3 years at Bethany/2 years at Heinz College

Chatham University
3 years at Chatham/1 year integrated/1 year at Heinz College

Learn more about MSISPM admissions requirements.

For more information on Accelerated Master’s Programs, please contact the Heinz College Office of Admissions at hnzadmit@andrew.cmu.edu or by phone (412) 268-2164.
