UNT is helping to ease industry needs with new degrees in cybersecurity and engineering management this fall, as well as geographic information systems + computer science in Fall 2021.

Both programs, housed in the College of Engineering, will emphasize skills such as critical thinking, creativity and problem solving in an active learning environment.

Students will acquire the knowledge and skills needed to advance their career and become pioneering leaders in the engineering field.

The new program, in UNT's Department of Geography and the Environment, will teach students how to apply geographical perspectives to complex data-related geospatial processes, understand computing principles, program using various languages including C++ and Python, and use complex databases effectively.
