How did you decide on your Computer & Digital Forensics major?
I chose Champlain because of the Digital Forensics major, which interested me more than anything else I’d seen at other schools. I’ve always been interested in computers, and since I want to go into law enforcement after college, Computer & Digital Forensics was the logical move to make. I like Champlain’s program because I get to take my major-specific classes early with the Upside-Down Curriculum. I wanted to go to one of the best schools in the country for my degree.
So how did the Upside-Down Curriculum impact your education?
My major-specific classes and professors give me hands-on experience with topics I’ll need when I enter the field. I’ve already done practical reports in my cybercrime, forensic science, and digital forensics classes. Instead of just hearing about methods and ideas, I’m actually applying them.
Can you tell us about your experience with the Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC)?
The University of Vermont’s United States Army ROTC hosts students from other area schools, such as Champlain. The partnership allows us to participate in the program and experience a lot of interesting classes and hands-on training. It also provides great scholarship opportunities. I get to do a lot of things most other college students won’t ever do, and I have the opportunity to serve my country in the military when I graduate.
