Collaborative Project: Expanding Information Assurance Education

自1997年以来，FSU一直致力于建立和支持信息保障和安全的教育和研究计划。1999年秋季和2000年春季学期提供了第一批信息保障课程。该计划已稳步增长以来，随着扩大信息保障课程和不断增长的学生人数增加。FSU和FAMU之间的这种合作努力旨在通过帮助FAMU开发目前不存在的IA计划来使FAMU受益，并通过扩大其研究工作来加强FSU的计划，增加少数民族在其研究生课程中的代表性，并通过加强其本科水平的教学课程内容。智力优点这个项目是创新的适应性和它的承认和利用一个巨大的资源库。在建立研究生IA计划在FSU获得的知识和经验被转移到FSU和FAMU，在那里大量的学生正在寻求这样的机会本科课程。据统计，在每年预计的100名毕业生中，60%至70%的学生将来自贫困和弱势群体。

FSU has been committed to building and supporting an education and research program in Information Assurance and Security since 1997. The first Information Assurance courses were offered in the fall 1999 and spring 2000 semesters. The program has grown steadily since, with the addition of expanded Information Assurance courses and a growing student population.This collaborative effort between FSU and FAMU is intended to benefit FAMU by helping to develop an IA program at FAMU that does not currently exist and to strengthen the program at FSU by broadening its research effort, increasing minority representation in its graduate program, and by enhancing its instructional course content at the undergraduate level.Intellectual MeritThis project is innovative in its adaptive nature and its recognition and leverage of a vast resource pool. The knowledge and experience gained in establishing the graduate IA program at FSU is transferred to undergraduate programs at FSU and FAMU, where large numbers of students are seeking such opportunities.Broader ImpactsThis approach produces a large number of IA graduates from previously untapped resources. Of the anticipated one hundred graduates per year, statistics show that sixty to seventy percent of these students will be from underprivileged and disadvantaged groups.
