This summer, students and professors from MGA’s ITEC 4299/6299 course traveled to Washington, DC via Macon's Contour Airlines for a tour focused on cybersecurity and our Nation's infrastructure.
In addition to touring the United States Capitol, the White House, and monuments, IT students and professors visited the National Security Agency for lessons on cybersecurity. They met with officials at the Secret Service Agency and the Department of Defense. Students used the Library of Congress resources to fulfill a cybersecurity assignment.
