Cybersecurity & Accounting Combine
Having a longstanding interest in technology, Nick Speakman-Viggiano '24 chose to major in cybersecurity. He also has a minor in accounting, so is professors encouraged him to apply to companies in the financial industry and last summer he interned with American Heritage Federal Credit Union, gaining a range of experience in information systems.
“All of my professors, I’ve found, they’re not here for a paycheck; they’re here to actually help students develop and learn,” Speakman-Viggiano said. “We have a ton of amazing professors who have connections all over the place, and they’re going to make sure that you’re in the best spot to graduate.” View full story here.
