Meet our scholars

The world of technology is forever growing and expanding by connecting communities, spreading knowledge and creating new possibilities. This virtual world is becoming an integral part of everyday life, affecting all members of the community. I am one such person, having completed my secondary education through distance education and relying on the virtual world to connect me to society. Through this firsthand experience, I have seen how personal data has become a commodity that can be stolen and sold. This has led me to developing an interest in cyber security. As a neurodiverse person I have become aware of people with mental health conditions and disabilities that keep them isolated from communities. I have chosen to complete a bachelor in cybersecurity and human behaviour as this follows my interest in cybersecurity but also in human behaviour to support the disability community accessing the virtual world in a safer environment.
