The School of Cyberspace Science and Technology, established in 2020, aims to become a world-class institution with Chinese characteristics in the field of cyberspace security, serving China's national strategy and implementing the overall national security concept.
The school's discipline of cyberspace security was granted the authority in 2016 to confer doctoral degrees in this field, making it one of the first institutions in China with that capacity. It also has a postdoctoral station, which was established in 2019, again one of the first in the country.
The school focuses on big information security and has five discipline directions as its key development areas. These are electromagnetic space intelligence context, social governance Internet of Things, space-air networks and secure communications, basics of cyberspace security, and cryptography and its applications. These directions cover both cyber and electromagnetic spaces, creating a comprehensive framework for "Big Security".
The school offers three undergraduate programs: information countermeasures technology (a national-level first-class program), cyberspace security, and cryptographic science and technology.
NOTE: The university may have additional program-specific eligibility requirements. It is recommended to verify these on the official university website.
