Doctor of Philosophy in Information Science- Cybersecurity

The University of North Texas Information Science PhD Program (IS PhD Program) responds to the varied and changing needs of the information age, therefore offering the Cybersecurity Concentration. The Cybersecurity Concentration is being offered jointly with UNT Department of Computer Science and Engineering, and UNT Department of Information Technology and Decision Sciences with the ultimate goal of providing interdisciplinary training, research, and professional services in cybersecurity. The concentration will prepare academics that are capable of conducting research on the critical issues in cybersecurity and related areas, and that are highly focused on information science perspective. They will fulfill the ever-increasing need for highly-trained researchers to assist the federal and state governments, the military, and the public sector in defending our information infrastructure and assets.

The Doctor of Philosophy, Ph.D., degree is a research degree. It is awarded in recognition of original scholarship and the generation of new knowledge by immersion in a topic, analysis, synthesis and creativity. When a Ph.D. is awarded, the degree carries and bestows certain rights and responsibilities that relate in large measure to serving society by exploring, shedding light upon and resolving fundamental problems. The Doctor of Philosophy degree is said to be fundamentally interdisciplinary. All those who pursue the degree, in one sense or another seek to clarify some portion of our best possible image of the world. Each of those who pursue the Ph.D. seek to provide the most robust understanding and appropriate tools for enabling each member of society to live well, to make the best life decisions—to become most fully human. Doctoral pursuits follow many paths, use different tool sets, invoke different mind sets and continue testing assumptions by different means. Over the centuries, many of these paths have clustered into discrete departments or schools. An interdisciplinary program attempts to return to an era of broader assumptions, linking paths and cross-fertilizing research. Such an approach provides resources across boundaries.
