Cyber for All Students

Cyber security is not just for computing students — it’s a life skill. At Lancaster, every student has access to the tools, training and support needed to navigate the digital world with confidence. Whether you study law, engineering, management, politics or the arts, our digital environment is designed to help you stay safe, protect your work, and understand how technology shapes society.

Cyber literacy underpins employability in every sector. Our aim is to ensure every Lancaster graduate understands how to work securely, recognise digital risks, and make responsible decisions in online spaces.

A whole-University approach

Cyber appears across:

  • Computing degrees through embedded technical content
  • Non-computing degrees through modules, guest lectures and real-world case studies
  • Digital safety training provided to all students at induction
  • Research support for postgraduate and doctoral learners
