Employer Partners
BAS-IT CyS Employer Partners
In addition to an intensive academic experience, students must also successfully complete a full-year of internship work to earn the BAS-IT CyS degree. Students’ are evaluated based on their job performance and professional etiquette.
The BAS-IT CyS Program has created partnerships with local employers who have a vested interest in the Chattanooga community and surrounding areas. Our common goal is to address the need for technical skills in IT and Cybersecurity in our local industry and keep the talent in the greater Chattanooga area to attract more employers and jobs.
These employers are investing in the community by providing paid internships to BAS-IT students. Their participation is an integral aspect to the training and learning experience for the students. If you are an employer interested in becoming a partner in our program and help shape the future for our community, please contact Dr. Phuong at [email protected].
