Computer Security - Languages / Programs

[darkstellar]

I'm currently choosing between two colleges and their programs. Both are in the computer and network security sector. My primary interests are: Privacy, Data/Information Assurance, Computer & Network Security, Penetration Testing, etc.

DSU Teaches: SQL, JavaScript, HTML, XML, Visual Basic, Assembly Language and Linear Programming. It also goes in depth about Databases.

Penn State Teaches: C++ and only a little about data.

However, Penn State is the much more "known" college; yet I think DSU's program/course load looks better.

Here's Penn State's Course List for their program: http://www.worldcampus.psu.edu/degr...urity-and-risk-analysis-bachelors/course-list

Here's DSU's Course List for their program: http://catalog.dsu.edu/preview_program.php?poid=567

Which program would you recommend is best suited for me?

Thank you very much!

DSU. Experience and knowledge will trump a well known college any day. I'd suggest you try to get an internship or two while you are at college as well, stuff like that really helps when you try to get a job.
