Secure and reliable communications are a cornerstone of modern military operations! The Department of Applied Mathematics at the Naval Postgraduate School has a long and successful track record of educating officers in this highly technical and operationally critical discipline. We currently offer a graduate certificate in Secure Communications, as well as MS and PhD degrees with concentrations in Cryptology and Coding & Information Theory. Many of our alumni have gone on to serve in key operational and technical assignments within their respective services and the National Security Agency.
