With the increased demand for qualified graduates in technology and engineering roles, students expect more from their academic degree programs, while educators are more focused than ever on preparing their STEM students for their careers. This evolution calls for an increasingly hands-on approach in computer science, IT, and engineering programs. Ariel University in Israel is one of the first higher education institutions to integrate hands-on cyber range sessions into their computer science and cybersecurity degree programs, starting with undergraduate courses. This approach significantly impacted the program\u2019s success, quality and appeal. Ariel University chose to use Cyberbit Range to run the programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About Cyberbit Range<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cyberbit Range is a simulation platform, originally developed for training blue and red cybersecurity teams in military organizations. Since its launch in 2013 Cyberbit Range has become the world leading simulation platform for hands-on academic degree programs in cybersecurity and computer science. In addition to Ariel University the platform is used by Regent University, Miami Dade College, Metropolitan State University, The University of Maine, and additional education institutions worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Computer Science and Cybersecurity Curriculum Leveraging Cyberbit Range<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/td><td>\u2022 Networking basics<br>\u2022 Databases<br>\u2022 Protocols<br>\u2022 Network security<br>\u2022 Secure coding<br>\u2022 Understanding defender and attacker<br>\u2022 Wireless and cellular<br>\u2022 Big data and machine learning in cybersecurity<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Need for Hands-On Academic Computer Science ProgramsSTEM education is evolving.
