IA/CD Taught in Existing Non-IA/CD Courses

INFO 1101
Digital Literacy is a class that combines a traditional lecture on information assurance with a blended learning component that allows the students to expand their knowledge on a specific IA topic. This is a multi-disciplinary course that fulfills a general education requirement at ISU.
INFO 3310
Introduction to Information Assurance is a course that introduces the concepts of information assurance in the virtual and physical world. This class focuses on the MSR model for information assurance and requires research papers (flipped instructional model) to emphasize critical thinking and the technique of synthesizing of research to influence their thoughts on cyber security. Students taking this class include international students and students from the College of Technology as well as other students from multiple disciplines.
INFO 3307
Systems Analysis and Design includes the capture of secure software requirements as well as all of the security requirements from various stakeholders to understand the sources and processes needed to ensure a more effective design. This class is open to students from multiple disciplines.
