The United States’ 16 critical infrastructure sectors play an indispensable role in our daily lives

In today's digital age, where personal and sensitive information is constantly under threat from cyberattacks, the need for robust authentication methods has never been more critical.

Quantum computing is a groundbreaking sector of computing that harnesses the power of quantum mechanics to tackle problems far too complex for classical computers to crack. While quantum computers are still in their early stages of development, recent breakthroughs in the field—including new research from IBM that improves error detection and correction—could pave the way for more widespread adoption. 

Sustainability and environmental consciousness are becoming increasingly important for companies hoping to avoid government scrutiny and consumer pushback. Aviation, which is responsible for as much as 3.5% of climate change according to a recent study from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, is at the forefront of this issue. 

Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) play a critical and growing role in nearly every organization across nearly every industry. As an executive-level position, CISOs protect their organization’s information assets, digital systems, and technological infrastructure. They take the lead in developing and ensuring the execution of an overarching strategy that can safeguard sensitive data from the ever-evolving threat landscape of cyberattacks. 

Generative AI has brought fast-paced change to nearly every industry, from the way we create and consume content to the way we do business.

Mechatronic engineers combine knowledge of mechanical engineering, electronics, computer science, and control engineering to create and empower advanced systems and products that seamlessly integrate mechanical components with electronics and software. They are at the forefront of designing innovative solutions that enhance the efficiency and precision of automated machinery, particularly by creating and managing control systems that directs and regulates the behaviors of other systems. 

Product managers not only lead teams but lead innovation. Cutting-edge fields including aviation, AI, construction, cybersecurity and more are growing at a rapid rate, creating innovative careers in product management all around.

While much of the discussion around generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) in education has focused on how tools like ChatGPT are ushering in a new wave of concerns around academic integrity, AI has tremendous potential to positively tr

Operating systems serve as the backbone of computer systems, coordinating the interaction between hardware and software and providing the foundation upon which all other applications run. Currently, five major operating systems dominate the vast landscape of computing: Android, Windows, iOS, macOS, and Linux. While each system boasts distinct features, the always present threat of ransomware transcends platforms, targeting them with varying tactics, risks, and outcomes.
