American University is a 400-hour Cybersecurity bootcamp that teaches security for Windows, cloud, cyber infrastructure, Linux, network, and Python. This bootcamp also teaches Game Theory, which helps students step inside the mind of a hacker to offensively defend against cyber threats. The American University course offers hands-on and project-based learning through Immersive Simulation Cyber Labs. 

The Cybersecurity program is suitable for everyone, including beginners and those with some self-taught experience in the field. Potential students are required to first complete a 30-hour introductory course. After this 30-hour course, students will be asked to take an exam and assessment before moving forward into the full program.  

American University’s bootcamps are designed to get graduates jobs. Career Services administrators help students throughout the bootcamp’s duration with resumes, cover letters, professional networking, and industry-specific interviewing. Instructors help students connect with alumni and top businesses in the area, and an internship assistance program is also available, though placement is not guaranteed.

The American University Cybersecurity Professional Certificate is powered by HackerU.
