Course Description:
This course allows students to volunteer to work in an agency related to cybersecurity. Students must volunteer for 50 hours per course credit and complete course assignments. Prerequisite: approval by the Director of the Center for Cybersecurity Education and Research.
Perspective needed:
I choose intern as a peer mentor for the cybersecurity department at Old Dominion University. This choice was due to me believing my cybersecurity knowledge had a solid foundation, but my communication skills needed improving. This course frequently put me out of my comfort zone and require me to adapt to whatever task was in front of me. I was tasked to help students with class registration and guidance, create online resources for the undergraduate advisor to use, and to meet with students to discuss any further questions about the campus that they may have in their freshman experience.
