MacKenzie Kallevig, a junior majoring in Computer Science, shares how she discovered SMSU and how the sport of swimming has taught her how to be a leader in the pool and in the classroom.

Eventually she became curious to how the games were programmed and coded. Now, she hopes to parlay a childhood passion and an undergraduate degree into a Master of Science (MS) in Cybersecurity from SMSU. The newly launched 30-credit Cybersecurity curriculum was was approved by the Higher Learning Commission in the fall of 2021.
