Collaborative Research: Building Information Assurance Education Capacity with Auburn University

该项目是通过奥本大学（AU）和HBCU阿拉巴马州立大学（ASU）之间的合作伙伴关系建立信息保障教育能力。奥本大学正在将其信息保障课程从目前的工程学院、科学学院和数学学院扩展到商学院，并扩展到阿拉巴马州立大学的多个项目中。知识价值。该项目有四个目标：首先，该项目通过专业发展活动增加非盟和亚利桑那州立大学信息保障教师的数量。其次，该项目正在开发、改进和修订教材，使非计算机科学与工程专业的学生也能获得非盟信息保障学位。第三，通过现场推广，该项目正在协助亚利桑那州立大学发展一个多学科的信息保障教育计划，其最终目标是使亚利桑那州立大学成为国家安全局信息保障教育学术卓越中心。非盟已经有了这样的称号。第四，该项目正在调整和实施美国空军学院的信息战和计算机安全课程，以供亚利桑那州立大学和非盟大学使用。更广泛的影响。该项目正在对国家信息保障界产生多重和重大的影响。正在开发的课程材料增加了信息保障教育的可及性，使更多不同学科的学生群体能够获得信息保障教育。非盟大学和亚利桑那州立大学之间的合作伙伴关系为不同的教师、行业专家和社区合作伙伴提供了一个极好的平台，在跨学科的环境中进一步提高他们的IA知识和经验。

This project is building information assurance educational capacity through a partnership between Auburn University (AU) and Alabama State University (ASU), an HBCU. Auburn is expanding its information assurance curriculum beyond the current Colleges of Engineering, and Sciences and Mathematics into the College of Business, and into multiple programs at Alabama State University. Intellectual merit. This project has four objectives: First, the project is increasing the number of information assurance faculty at both AU and ASU through professional development activities. Second, the project is developing, improving, and revising educational materials to make the AU information assurance degree available to students in outside of computer science and engineering. Third, through on-site outreach, the project is assisting ASU in developing a multi-disciplinary information assurance educational program with the ultimate goal of qualifying ASU as a National Security Agency Center of Academic Excellence in Information Assurance Education. AU already has such a designation. Fourth, the project is adapting and implementing the US Air Force Academy's information warfare and computer security curriculum for use at both ASU and AU. Broader impact. This project is yielding multiple and significant impacts to the national information assurance community. The course materials being developed are increasing the accessibility of information assurance education to a broader and more diverse group of students across a variety of disciplines. The partnership between AU and ASU is providing an excellent platform for a diverse group of faculty, industrial experts, and community partners to further their IA knowledge and experience in an interdisciplinary environment.
