Taken from prospects 2022

It's possible to enter the cyber security profession without a degree by starting in an entry-level IT position. You could then work your way up to a cyber security role by gaining experience and industry certifications.

Alternatively, you could undertake an apprenticeship in cyber security, where you combine employment and study to work towards a recognised qualification. Apprenticeships are available at various levels, including degree-level. Tech Partnership Degrees, for example, accredits the Digital and Technology Solutions Degree Apprenticeship, some of which have a cyber security analyst specialism.

Employers recruiting for a graduate position may require, or prefer, a degree in a science, technology, engineering or mathematics (STEM) subject. 

Relevant degree subjects include:

• cyber/information/network security

• computer science

• computing and information systems

• software/electrical/network engineering

• mathematics

• physics

• other IT/security/network-related degrees.

• It's also possible to enter the profession with a non-technical/unrelated degree. Some graduate schemes or graduate roles, for example, welcome graduates from any degree discipline.

As you gain experience, your degree subject will be less important, and employers will be more interested in what you've done professionally.

There are also opportunities to move into a cyber security role after gaining experience in a more general IT role.
