ONLINE PhD program for Information Security?

["Ismael Gonzalez" <wortos () gmail com>]

Hi List,

Its curious that I have seen so much emphasis on Masters Degrees for Info
Sec. But what about higher levels of education? Is there a PhD program? Is
it online or classroom based?

I know that Info Sec or Info Assurance is a relatively new field, or should
I dare say that it was shown on the media not so long ago, but is there a
degree about these fields higher than a Master?

Thanks for your time,

Ismael

Does anyone know of any online master program for Info Sec or Info
Assurance?
I found Norwich University, but would like to know others for comparison.

Thanks.

Jawbox,

I have my Master's Degree in Information Security.  I went to The Stevens
Institute of Technology in Hoboken, NJ
(http://howe.stevens.edu/MSIS/IS.html).  I'm not sure if you are from this
area, but Stevens had a good program.. It was both technical and management
based.  One of the classes was all about the CISSP exam.  We covered all of
the topics required for the exam, and if you have the required Info Sec. 
experience (5 years I believe), then after the class you can even go and
take the exam.  At the end of the 30  credits (2 years) you will have your
Master's Degree.  Good Luck.

Mike B.

Hello,

Does anyone know of an institution offering M.Sc. for Information
Security/Assurance?  Any graduates out there?  I'm hoping to find one who's
curiculum involves both management and technical aspects.

Much obliged,

Jawbox
