This innovative degree provides educational opportunities not available through traditional programs. Working with a faculty advisor, students construct a liberal arts degree program to fit their interests. It’s a great option for students with multiple passions. Cyber Crime Certificate Upon completing the Certificate in Cyber Crime, students will be able to analyze cyber deviance and cybercrime activities from both sociological and criminological perspectives. The courses students take as part of this certificate will prepare them to assess the role of law enforcement in cyber privacy and the investigation, prosecution, and prevention of cyber crime worldwide. The certificate consists of 18 credit hours, with 15 of these being required courses, in addition to a 3-hour elective. Master of Arts, Intelligence and Security Studies Music Industry courses The Master of Arts in Intelligence and Security Studies (MAISS) is designed to provide students with a practical and theoretical understanding of current and future security challenges facing our nation. The program seeks to expose military members, future decision makers and analysts, and students considering a Ph.D. to the security challenges inherent in a rapidly changing world. Our program has a special emphasis on the causes and effects of interstate and intrastate conflict, the sources of terrorism, terrorism and counterterrorism strategies, and security issues that affect national, regional, and global security. The new music industry courses present the career opportunities that are available within the industry, and the knowledge needed to achieve those goals and secure a job. These courses are taught by April Brumfield, manager, agent and consultant for some of the most renowned artists in classical and jazz music, including Augusta University’s very own Wycliffe Gordon. The courses offered during the Fall 2018 semester included Introduction to the Music Industry and Careers in the Music Industry. Concert Touring and Booking Management will be offered in the Spring 2019 semester. www.augusta.edu/pamplin | 7
