program overview

Bachelor of Cybersecurity (via Certificate accumulation) offers students high-tech, specialized training in cybersecurity, including courses about investigation methods, fighting cyberfraud, network security improvement, and information system security management.

This leading edge training anticipates the needs of companies and employers who are actively seeking experts to assist them in defending themselves against cybercriminals. This Bachelor’s degree is without a doubt also an asset to employers looking for employees whose cybersecurity knowledge is critical to resolving concerns in that field.  

The cumulative bachelor’s degree with the cybersecurity designation must include at least two of the following programs offered at Polytechnique Montréal :

  • Certificat en Architecture et gestion de la cybersécurité (in French)
  • Certificat en cyberenquête (in French)
  • Certificat en cyberfraude (in French)
  • Certificat en Internet industriel des objets (in French)
  • Undergraduate certificate in Analysis and operational cybersecurity  (previously known as Undergraduate certificate in Cybersecurity) or Certificat en Analyse et cybersécurité opérationnelle (in French)
  • Undergraduate certificate in cybersecurity or Certificat en cybersécurité des réseaux informatiques (in French). These programs are no longer offered at Polytechnique Montréal. However, they are still accepted for the cumulative bachelor’s degree.

You may complete three certificate programs at Polytechnique Montréal. There is also the possibility to complete one of your three certificate programs elsewhere, on one of the following campuses.

Note that you cannot directly register for the Bachelor via Certificate accumulation; you must complete three certificates according to Polytechnique Montréal’s policies, and then apply to graduate via the Bachelor via Certificate accumulation program.
