Hey,

So I've been thinking about my future career and I signed up for Monster to email me jobs that are hiring, and the ones that sound interesting I click on a view the requirements and what not and most of them say Security Clearance.

So, my question how do you gain security clearance?

I'm majoring in the Computer Information Systems/Computer Science haven't decided which one to follow, but as of right now it is CIS.

So how does one who wants to score a well paying job that requires security clearance go about getting it?

Would taking some security tracking courses help?  The university offers a few, but nothing major...

Just wondering if anyone knows...
