Overview
Founded in 1972, Turtle Mountain Community College (TMCC) is an autonomous Native-controlled college on the Turtle Mountain Chippewa Reservation. It was the sixth tribal college founded in the United States. TMCC now offers an Associate of Applied Science degree in Cybersecurity and Data Privacy, and is one of the first tribal colleges in the U.S. to offer a policy-relevant cyber program. This grant will allow TMCC to develop a Bachelor of Applied Science (BAS) degree in Cyber Law & Policy, an interdisciplinary undergraduate major designed to prepare students for positions in government, industry, and research, as well as the foundation necessary for success in graduate programs. The Cyber Law & Policy program will prepare students to become leaders in the growing cyber industry, providing them with a solid understanding of security technology, privacy laws, and policy.
