That degrees do you have?

Hey Adrian,

I found myself in the same frustrating situation not long ago.  My local 
college was not teaching anything I felt beneficial enough to warrant 
the cost, let alone useful under real world conditions.  I have to agree 
with the other party who mentioned it but hands on provides the greatest 
value and i find that if you have a BS and the hands on experience you 
can do quite well.

Throughout my search for a good school with a good reputation, and more 
so a curriculum that meets my desires was not easy.  However I did find 
Cappella University!  They were originally developed to meet the needs 
of the armed forces but opened up to the public.  A good many of the 
programs are designed around requirements of government agencies and 
planned accordingly.  I have spoke with them on many occasions and hope 
to begin there soon.

If you are active military or prior military you get a 15% discount on 
tuition, small amount but every little bit counts :-)

Here are the degrees for InfoSec offered:

BS = 
http://www.capella.edu/schools_programs/undergraduate_studies/technology/information_assurance_security.aspx
MS = 
http://www.capella.edu/schools_programs/business_technology/masters/information_assurance_security.aspx
PhD = 
http://www.capella.edu/schools_programs/business_technology/phd/information_security.aspx

Hope this helps someone, they are really good people!
