Hello! I would like to say first and foremost that it's a pleasure to be able to document and share my experiences abroad with the Fitchburg State community!

My name is Jordan Malachi, currently a junior Communications Media Film/Video student. Throughout these posts I am documenting my sophomore year of college spent studying abroad at Tsinghua University in Beijing, China.

Cybersecurity is a hot and fast growing field. The National Science Foundation (NSF) and Computing Research Association (CRA) predicted that three areas of computer science were primed for exponential growth where the number of jobs available would vastly outnumber the number of qualified people to fill them. One of those areas, cybersecurity, has already hit that point.

As the market for cloud computing services is growing at a rapid speed, so is the demand for cybersecurity. Not only are the government and large enterprises facing this problem, but small businesses are now also facing a cybersecurity threat that they are ill-prepared to meet. In fact, as noted [1], small businesses are especially unprepared for the growing cybersecurity issues faced by small and medium businesses (SMB).

What is the CCAC?

Saturday will mark seven months since beginning my new journey as an academic and career coach at the Career Counseling and Advising Center (CCAC). Like many of the students I work with, I am getting used to a new campus. I am navigating various offices and I am fortunate enough to be working in a newly merged set of departments. The CCAC was created about a year and a half ago when the Career Counseling Center and Advising Center became one entity.

It’s 2018 and at least 30 million people of all ages and genders suffer from an eating disorder in the U.S. alone*. There are people in our own college community who suffer from eating disorders, and you may know someone who does even if you can’t tell by their behavior or weight. 

As a Communications Media student, I always kept internship on my mind from the get-go. The Internship Program serves as a capstone experience for all Communications Media students. Required for graduation, the 12-credit program typically takes place during a student’s final semester. Students first undergo a portfolio defense process, presenting work which best exhibits their respective talents and interests.
