Through the Network Management and Security program developed by the Cyber Security Institute at the University of Houston-Clear Lake, students learn security principals, networking concepts, how to configure networking devices, utilize network tools and how to secure networks through interactive lectures and lab experience. I reinforce lecture topics through a combination of active participation during instructor presentations and providing students the opportunity to discuss learning topics and gain hands-on experience with Cisco networking equipment and dedicated laptops during exclusively scheduled lab time. The lab's network is designed to operate independently of the university's local network allowing students to gain experience with tools typically restricted on local area networks. Virtualized services are under development to enhance the learning experience and capabilities offered by the University of Houston-Clear Lake's Cyber Security Institute.
