For the first time in more than 20 years, the U.S. Coast Guard Academy will add a new academic program. Beginning with the Class of 2022, the Academy will offer an academic major in Cyber Systems that will allow a generation of young leaders to better meet the emerging operational and support needs of the Service.
In the fall of 2018, the Academy will open a new 2,000 sq. foot cyber lab that will house dedicated servers, a working laboratory and a uniquely designed classroom with $1.5M in funding from the USCGA Alumni Association. Its completion will grow the Academy’s capability to educate and train cadets in cybersecurity, cyber safety, and other engineering topics so that future officers can lead effectively amidst the emerging data-centric challenges facing the Coast Guard today and in the future.
