I knew I wanted a career in security, but I had not thought about getting to the executive level and the breadth of experience it would require. I started looking at degrees that provided a larger scope of the defense industry, and OU was always one of the top suggestions. The program was exactly what I was looking for: it covered a broad spectrum of information, was designed for mid-career professionals and equipped its graduates for the executive level. It was the perfect fit.
