Mastercard, NTU launches new masters program on cybersecurity

The program is tailored for professionals seeking a spot in the cybersecurity space.

Mastercard and Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) launched a new FlexiMasters program to strengthen expertise in combating the growing threat of cybercrime.

The NTU-Mastercard FlexiMasters in Cybersecurity & Digital Trust is a program tailored for mid-career professionals looking to enter the field of cybersecurity.

The modules within the curriculum will be delivered by experienced NTU faculty members, along with Mastercard’s global in-house experts.

9 modules will be conducted by Mastercard experts, with 10-13 hours per module at the start of the program.

NTU’s faculty will be trained to independently carry out the program in subsequent iterations.

Mastercard also announced last December its objective to establish its first Cybersecurity Center of Excellence for the Asia Pacific region, based in Singapore.

“Our ambition to continuously innovate to safeguard trust in our increasingly connected world extends beyond technological advancements to the heart of cybersecurity—nurturing the next generation of professionals. Through this world-leading Masters program we will enrich best-in-class talent to help deliver a safe and trusted digital ecosystem for the benefit of everyone’s future,” Ajay Bhalla, President for Cyber and Intelligence at Mastercard said.
