I'm hoping you can help us by forwarding this email to undergraduate
students interested in privacy to let them know about our unique Privacy
Engineering masters program in the School of Computer Science at Carnegie
Mellon University. This program is designed for computer scientists and
engineers, or others with technical backgrounds, who wish to pursue careers
as privacy engineers or technical privacy managers - a rapidly growing
field.

As new privacy regulations take effect, companies and other organizations
have created positions for people responsible for ensuring that privacy is
an integral part of the design process. Our recent graduates have received
job offers from Adobe, Deloitte, Facebook, Google, LinkedIn, Nike, Oracle,
Snap, Uber, and more! Through two-semesters of coursework, our students
learn to integrate perspectives that span product design, software
development, cyber security, human computer interaction, as well as
business and legal considerations. Students conclude their studies with a
learning-by-doing, capstone project, where they work in teams on
privacy-by-design projects sponsored by clients, including start-ups and
major companies. Our students also participate in events sponsored by the
International Association of Privacy Professionals (now over 30,000 members
strong) and take their privacy certification exams.

Students can learn more about our program at http://privacy.cs.cmu.edu. Our
early application deadline is December 15, 2017.

Thank you!

Lorrie
