Collaborative Project: Bridging Gaps in IA Education through Collaboration

该项目弥合了多数族裔和少数族裔社区之间日益扩大的“高科技差距”，这种差距可能严重破坏我国在科学和技术方面的领导地位。该项目的主要目标是建立在NC AT SU IA教育能力，使它能够提供一个独立的IA程序，符合NSA CAE/IAE指定标准。CAE/IAE机构夏洛特夏洛特在这方面为NC A T SU提供了关键支持。该项目还使夏洛特夏洛特能够进一步提高其IA教育能力。随着重点信息保障课程的发展，该项目建立了新的IA本科课程内的计算机科学系在NC AT SU和软件和信息系统系在夏洛特夏洛特。这些项目虽然独立，但旨在共享IA资源，以便为两个机构的学生提供更丰富的选修课。课程开发包括现有课程的修改，新课程的设计和开发，以及实验室和实验室项目的开发。该项目还通过精心设计的教师暑期课程促进了NC A T SU的教师发展。

This project bridges the widening "high-tech gap" between majority and minority communities that can seriously undermine our nation's leadership position in science and technology. The main objective of the project is to build up IA education capacity at NC A&T SU so that it can offer an independent IA program that meets NSA CAE/IAE designation criteria. UNC Charlotte, a CAE/IAE institution, provides critical support to NC A&T SU in this effort. The project also enables UNC Charlotte to further enhance its IA education capacity. With focus on the development of information assurance curricula, the project establishes new IA undergraduate programs within the Computer Science Department at NC A&T SU and within Software and Information Systems Department at UNC Charlotte. These programs, though independent, are designed to share IA resources in order to offer richer electives for students at both institutions. Curriculum development involves activities such as modification of existing courses, new course design and development, as well as laboratory and lab projects development. The project also promotes faculty development at NC A&T SU, through a well-designed faculty summer program.
