CS and Cybersecurity Industry Advisory Committee

The Computer Science and Cybersecurity Industry Advisory Committee (CSC-IAC) is a distinguished group of individuals who volunteer their time to provide advice on current efforts and the future direction in providing top-quality educational experiences to our students in the areas of computer science and cybersecurity.

Membership

The board consists of diverse group of professionals from academia and industry, including alumni of Computer Science and Cybersecurity programs at Colorado Mesa University. Based on nominations provided by CS and Cybersecurity faculty and the current CSC-IAC members, the Chair of Computer Science and Engineering Department appoints members to serve two-year renewable terms.
