Graduate Certificate in Information Warfare
Globalization and advanced technologies have made information warfare a force multiplier for nation-states, groups, and individual actors. Effective deployment across any target audience can have a momentous positive or negative impact. Norwich University's online information warfare graduate certificate enables students to advance their understanding of this domain, and analyze it’s past, present, and potential future in a dynamic classroom environment.
The certificate in information warfare will help you identify and explain the fundamental principles of information warfare as conceptualized by different countries. You will evaluate and assess current information warfare threats and information capabilities from Russia, China, Iran, DPRK, and violent extremist organizations. Classify how and why weaponized information is used as part of modern influence campaigns, evaluate vulnerabilities of social systems that an adversary could exploit through weaponized information, and construct accurate threat models through detailed characterization of an adversary’s information capabilities through a multidisciplinary approach.
The certificate is comprised of two 11-week courses, totaling 12 graduate-level credits, and are completed entirely online. Upon successful completion of a certificate program, students wishing to enter into our Master of Science in Cybersecurity program will be able to use the certificate courses toward the completion of their master’s degree.
