What other branches of studies should Information Security students look into?

I've interned with Citibank for the past few years and I had an opportunity to work with the cyber security team. With the majors I have been advised to pursue they all lead to computer science. As a college freshmen I don't have to make the final decision but I was wondering if anyone in the IT field has any experience? #technology #women-in-tech #women-in-stem #citi #robotics #choosing-a-major

Definitely computer science.

Some schools may have minors or concentrations geared towards security, and professional certifications are always a benefit.

Look for certifications that you can acquire which are probably offered outside the school, there are a bunch of acronyms, CCSA, CMSA, I could not tell you what they stand for
