There are four primary objectives:

(1) By examining cyber security issues from a socio-political 
perspective, the course hopes to generate awareness among 
students of technological development and the future of human 
society as a whole;
(2) By surveying the potential socio-economic and political 
risks of our networked society from a broad perspective, this 
course intends to foster a humanistic, societal, and political 
understanding of cyber security; 
(3) By developing a humanistic, societal, and political
understanding of cyber security, the course prepares students 
to engage the issue from less technological, but more political 
and policy points of view; and 
(4) By preparing students to engage cyber security issues from 
the political and policy perspective, the course hopes students 
can gain the ability to communicate across the divide between 
technological and policy communities.

The academic honesty policy of the university is supplemented
(not replaced) by an Honor Code which was adopted by the Student
Government Association and approved by the University Council May
1, 1997, and provides: "I will be academically honest in all of
my academic work and will not tolerate academic dishonesty of 
others." All students agree to abide by this code by signing the
UGA Admissions Application.
