Computer & Digital Forensics Major Curriculum

Our award winning program allows you to begin taking your Computer & Digital Forensics classes beginning in your first semester. By the time you finish your first year, you will have taken upward of five courses related to your major!

As part of the curriculum, you will have the opportunity to gain hands-on experience through interning at the Leahy Center for Digital Investigation (LCDI). You'll learn skills needed to succeed in your field right on campus while working on real-live cases and investigations.

Interested in studying abroad for a semester? The Computer & Digital Forensics faculty built the curriculum so you can spend the fall semester of your third year studying abroad without getting behind on required courses for your major.
