Cybersecurity - UCU Chapter
About Us
The Cybersecurity – UCU Chapter (USeC), is a student organisation that provides a relaxed and fun way for cybersecurity enthusiasts to learn and socialize. Participation in the USeC is open to all students with an interest in cybersecurity, regardless of program or prior experience. We seek to cultivate interdisciplinary relationships to strengthen UCU’s security community and network with professionals to give students an inside look at how security impacts all disciplines.
USeC orgnises and hosts contests with a variety of categories, spanning from cryptography to social engineering, to broaden student experiences outside of the classroom and prepare them for external competitions. These contests are a great opportunity for students from all over campus to test their skills against each other as they complete a variety of cyber challenges.
Additional projects and events, provide students opportunities to work with professionals and peers to deepen their knowledge of cybersecurity topics, apply the technical skills they learn in and outside the classroom, and expand their professional network.
The mission of the CyberSecurity – UCU Chapter is to help students take the knowledge they have learned from their classes and help them apply this knowledge to better prepare them for internships and full-time jobs (and all relevant applications therein), and empower members with managerial-level analytical skills that will make them effective in any role or industry.
