James Madison University

Program History

JMU InfoSec was established in January 1997. It is one of the first graduate Information Security programs in the nation. 34 students graduated in 1999. Nineteen of those students were Department of Defense employees educated under a contract with the National Security Agency.

In 1999, the program moved to 100% Internet-based, asynchronous interactive classrooms. Students are never required to attend on-campus classes at JMU. Our classes are available world-wide at anytime. Students are required to participate in weekly class discussions. We currently have over 200 highly successful graduates.
