Center for Information Technology and Cyber Security

The mission of the CITCS is to support the development of a comprehensive IT and cyber security education and research program that will prepare TAMU-SA students for cyber careers, develop a sustainable middle school to university cyber student pipeline, increase campus and community cyber security awareness, and promote faculty and student research in the fields of IT and cyber security.

In 2012, Texas A&M University-San Antonio was designated as a National Center of Academic Excellence (CAE) in Information Assurance Education in recognition of its commitment to educating highly trained professionals skilled in cyber security and information assurance. The designation is sponsored by the National Security Agency (NSA) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). The CITCS actively works with business and military partners to insure students are prepared to meet the fast-paced demands of the cyber field.  Partnerships with the Alamo Colleges and school districts with dual-credit programs have resulted in the launch of the "Affordable Degree," which provides students the option to earn a B.A.A.S. degree in Information Security for around $10,000.
