"Warwick offers exceptional opportunities, with plenty to get involved in, including CyberWomen@Warwick. Lecturers are always available to support, and the course feels personal and tailored, with every staff member knowing your name and strengths. The small course size allows for these personal touches, making my experience at Warwick so enriching.

“Throughout my time at university I had the opportunity to network with incredible people in the cyber security industry. Notably, my networking efforts led me to secure a summer internship with a penetration testing company. The practical knowledge and exposure I gained during my internship substantially contributed to my skills and allowed me to find a fitting job role as I transitioned out of university.”

“Founding CyberWomen Groups alongside my degree has been an integral part of my own personal and professional development and has shaped my expectations, instilled confidence, and taught me the value of embracing strengths and weaknesses. Everybody has different skills and proficiencies – acknowledging this and using it to continue to grow is a value I have gained being part of this initiative. I hope this to continue to be an influence throughout my career!”

"I chose this course over other Cyber Security courses as it is more focused instead of just being a computer science course with additional cyber security modules like it was at many other universities. The course has allowed me to explore a wide range of cyber security topics, introducing me to new areas while also encouraging further independent research into areas I find the most interesting. The employability in this sector is very high and I have had no issues in finding summer internships and potential graduate jobs through both connections made at university or other means."
