At our Cyber Warfare Range, you’ll learn to infect a computer with malware that surfaced a few weeks earlier on the Dark Web. Then you’ll learn how to defeat it.
We are the only community college in the U.S. with a live-fire cyber warfare range.
Hybrid Learning: Experience the Best of Both Worlds
Most of our courses employ hybrid learning, which combines online and in-person instruction.
Online
You complete class activities online at your own pace, from anywhere you have an internet connection.
In-Person
You attend a lecture or lab on specific days and times and collaborate with your instructor and classmates.
“The most important skills you will learn at Pima are not technical. When employers are looking for talent, even more important than technical skill is the person's problem-solving and lifelong learning abilities.”
– Chris Bonhorst, Cybersecurity/IT instructor, 26 years of experience as an educator, systems architect and administrator.
