Hi I am from Dallas, TX. I am going to enroll for Master Degree in Internet Security (online) in American Intercontinental University. Anybody can help me get more details about job opportunities in this field. Is it possible to get a job after the graduation (fresh Graduate). Any campus placements there? can I get any internship during this period? Is there any advantage to spend $30,00.00? bcas more expensive than other universities Thank you Ben
AIU is overpriced and unremarkable. If you've been looking at less expensive options, you may want to give them closer consideration instead. (Although, what other schools are you considering?) -=Steve=-
I completely agree. I spent nearly as much on a few classes with AIU as I did with an entire year of classes with SIU. UMUC's a bit expensive too, but in the end I'll pay half of the cost of an AIU master's degree...
If you are in Texas, why not attend a better school. Our Lady of the Lake University offers a less-expensive internet security program and you can attend classes on campus which is very valuable in this field. Capitol College also offers a very good program and scholarship is available. Frankly, you should start your search for an information security degree on the National Security Agency website to make sure the program is accredited and recognized, and to take advantage of Information Security/Assurance Scholarship offered by the government. This is very important because the federal government hires a great deal of information security professionals. Goodluck!
