PUG has removed some master's degree programs from ExcelTrack

I'm in the Cybersecurity Management track now. My class was the last to take it. My advisor has alluded to the fact that it will be brought back with an updated curriculum from Purdue to get rid of some of the old Kaplan classes.

That is a real issue, so I'm happy that they seem to be looking at updating the curriculum. I noticed it more with my BSIT classes than MSIT -- maybe a quarter of the modules referred at times to technology that was painfully out of date. For a few of the papers I wrote, I literally started with a statement akin to this: "I have made some changes from the given assignment to reflect the fact that the technology referenced is no longer current." Never any pushback from the professors for my changes; they were quite aware of the issues.

So, if they're temporarily closing the tracks to new students to make legitimate improvements to them, I'm all in favor of that.
