BS - Security Management
Offered By: Capella University
Prepare yourself to assume a leadership role in the growing field of private security. Private security professionals are responsible for protecting the vast majority of the nation‘s infrastructure, 85 percent of which is privately owned. They are also increasingly recognized as being integral to the central business functions of corporations that must protect their operations against fraud, information and property theft, workplace violence, terrorism, and other security concerns. Capella‘s Security Management curriculum includes courses covering such topics as leadership; information, operational, commercial, and retail security; executive protection; laws and legal procedures; and security management in a global business environment. A capstone project provides an opportunity to apply and demonstrate your security management skills. People who choose this specialization may include military, public safety, or private security personnel who wish to pursue management positions focused on private security risk management and asset protection.
The National Security Agency and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security have designated Capella University as a National Center of Academic Excellence in Information Assurance Education (CAEIAE).
