CITADEL: Coordinated Information Techology and Assurance Development and Education Laboratory

CITADEL为信息安全和保证的教育、培训和实际应用提供了一个智力高地。CITADEL培养学生成为领导者，而不仅仅是从业者，在信息保障和安全的日益重要的领域。它还为教师提供了与政府机构最优秀的学生和研究人员合作的机会。CITADEL协调新墨西哥州技术CAE/IAE、信息技术项目、计算机科学系和NMT的ICASA（复杂添加剂系统分析研究所）部门的工作。每个学者的计划将包括以下内容：定制的课程序列，以匹配学者的兴趣领域和信息保障和安全研究;研究项目和顾问在研究相关领域的描述;他或她的个人监督委员会（包括研究顾问）;前往出席会议介绍研究成果;前往参加夏季SFS讲习班（由两名PI陪同）;在OPM批准的实习岗位上的个性化安置;在OPM批准的服务岗位上的个性化安置;专业技能发展研讨会和支持;指导，包括与两名PI的定期互动。为了支持CITADEL计划中的信息保证和安全，教师致力于提供以下专业知识进行研究和咨询：自适应控制和动态系统;基于代理的金融系统建模&仿真;软计算的应用;应用数学;非金融风险建模&分析;复杂的加法系统建模，仿真和分析;复杂系统;概念建模;密码学;道德问题;金融系统;信息系统;数学规划;网络安全和性能;并行和高性能计算;软件完整性;适定性和灵敏度分析。

CITADEL provides an intellectual high ground for the education, training, practical application of information security and assurance. CITADEL trains students to become leaders, not merely practitioners, in the increasingly important field of information assurance and security. It also provides faculty enhanced opportunities to work with the best students and researchers at government agencies. CITADEL coordinates the efforts of New Mexico Techs CAE/IAE, Information Technology Program, the Computer Science Department, and NMT's ICASA (Institute for Complex Additive Systems Analysis) division. Each scholar's program will include the following: a customized course sequence to match the scholar's area of interest and research in information assurance and security; a research project and advisor in a research relevant area described; his or her personal supervisory committee (including research advisor); travel to a conference to present research results; travel to summer SFS workshop (accompanied by both PIs); individualized placement in an OPM approved internship position; individualized placement in an OPM approved service position; professional skill development workshops and support; mentoring, including regular interaction with both PIs. To support information assurance and security in the CITADEL program, faculty have committed to providing the following expertise for research and advising: Adaptive Control and Dynamic Systems; Agent-based Financial System Modeling & Simulation; Applications of Soft Computing; Applied Mathematics; Non-financial Risk Modeling & Analysis; Complex Additive Systems Modeling, Simulation, and Analysis; Complex Systems; Conceptual Modeling; Cryptography; Ethical Issues; Financial Systems; Information Systems; Mathematical Programming; Network Security and Performance; Parallel and High Performance Computing; Software Integrity; Well-posedness and Sensitivity Analysis.
