BSc Hons in Information Technology and Computing (Networking and Security)
OU Validated (OU is a Validating Partner)

OU Regulations & Handbooks
AOU Jordan Student's Guide
About Program

​​​​​​​​​ The BSc in information Security and Forensics has been developed in collaboration with our partner institution, the Open University UK (OU UK). The need for information security and forensics analysts in the Arab countries is continuously increasing, and thus the career outlook for graduates looks positive, as there is a shortage of skilled personnel in both the Information Security and digital forensics fields. Students in this programme will develop a wide range of skills and competencies related to information security, digital forensics and network security that will prepare you for a variety of career opportunities. Graduates can progress to work in cyber-fighting agencies (whether local, regional and international). But the career opportunity is not limited to those agencies with the huge demand in industry for professionals with both digital forensics and information security skills especially with the rise of cyber-security threats and attacks.​

Duration of the program: maximum of 10 years of study 
Type of Study: Full time - Blended Learning ​
