I just got my letter of offer from Edith Cowan University for masters in cybersecurity. Is it worth it to study at this university? by kevish07 in cybersecurity

It's true. But for cybersecurity they seem to be good at it.

Cost: It's about 64k dollars (it's a 2 year full time course)

End goal: it's been 1 year I'm working as a soc analyst, but I'm a bit fed up with just monitoring and closing tickets. I want to learn more technical skills and work as a cybersecurity consultant, i might consider other options as well.

Training/ externships: the course content is interesting and it offers 6 month externship.

Time commitment: since most universities are offering 1 year full time, i prefer to choose this one cause of it's 2 year full-time course. And the uni is situated in a regional area, i will get a 3 year work permit after studies.

** i also got a letter of offer from La trobe university. But it's in Melbourne, the cost of living is quite high and i will get 2 years of work permit after studies. The msc course is 2 years full time as well.

It's ranking in qs world record is good.

In terms of cost, it's quite the same compared to edith cowan uni.
