comprehension of the subjects in cybersecurity. Following the lecturesessions, the students appeared to have improved their knowledge and understanding of thesubject, as evidenced by the rise in the average value of each question in the post-surveycompared to the pre-survey. This may be ascribed to the thorough lecture materials and practicallab exercises that were made available to the students, which helped to reinforce the ideas andprovide them with hands-on experience using the knowledge acquired. The findings support theidea that providing cybersecurity education to undergrad students can significantly affect theircomprehension of and readiness for the sector.

Similarly, we observed that URM statusdid not have a statistically significant association with office hours usage.5.2 LimitationsOne limitation of our study is that we cannot disentangle remote learning from the pandemic. Asa result, the pandemic could have caused interesting student behaviors without affecting usagepatterns. Because remote learning was immediately adopted following the onset of the pandemic,we cannot separate how remote learning and pandemic onset interacted in our final results.An example of possible interference would be if pandemic onset caused widespread mental
