This project is extending the current Scholarship for Service (SFS) program at Polytechnic University. It is leveraging the resources and improving the infrastructure generated by the current SFS program. The project is supporting an educational program that relies on a number of high-quality courses in the area of information assurance (IA), participation in research projects supervised by faculty, hands-on experience both at Polytechnic University and during summer internships, and state of the art infrastructure for IA research. The graduates of this program are becoming valuable members of the federal work force in charge of protecting information and technological infrastructure of our country. Polytechnic has been a host University to the SFS program since September 2002 and has graduated 25 students as of May 2005. Intellectual merit: The nature of the SFS program is primarily educational. This project is using the infrastructure and environment to prepare high-quality information assurance professionals who can be effective in protecting the information technology infrastructure of the Federal government. Polytechnic is innovating in information assurance education, in particular placing a stronger emphasis on research projects by the SFS students. This effort is sharpening the students' ability for creative thinking, making them better information assurance professionals. Broader impact: The SFS program at Polytechnic is training information assurance professionals for positions in agencies of the Federal government. Using knowledge and skills obtained in the program, the graduates are well prepared to meet challenges of protecting the information and infrastructure resources of the United States. The SFS program at Polytechnic is continuing to attract female students at a higher percentage than the larger Polytechnic student population. Further, the revised program is enhancing outreach efforts to continue to broaden participation. These efforts include an alumni mentoring program, an assessment and evaluation component, and partnerships with NY city industry, government and voluntary organizations.

该项目是对目前理工大学服务奖学金（SFS）项目的延伸。它正在利用现有的SFS计划所产生的资源和改善基础设施。该项目正在支持一项教育计划，该计划依赖于信息保证（IA）领域的一些高质量课程，参与由教师监督的研究项目，在理工大学和暑期实习期间的实践经验，以及IA研究的最先进基础设施。该计划的毕业生正在成为负责保护我国信息和技术基础设施的联邦劳动力的宝贵成员。理工学院自2002年9月以来一直是SFS计划的主办大学，截至2005年5月已有25名学生毕业。智力价值：SFS计划的性质主要是教育。该项目正在利用基础设施和环境培养高质量的信息保障专业人员，他们可以有效地保护联邦政府的信息技术基础设施。理工学院正在信息保障教育方面进行创新，特别是更加重视SFS学生的研究项目。这一努力正在提高学生的创造性思维能力，使他们成为更好的信息保障专业人员。更广泛的影响：理工学院的SFS计划正在为联邦政府机构的职位培训信息保证专业人员。利用在该计划中获得的知识和技能，毕业生做好充分准备，以应对保护美国信息和基础设施资源的挑战。理工学院的SFS方案继续吸引女生，其比例高于较大的理工学院学生人数。此外，修订后的方案正在加强外联工作，以继续扩大参与。这些努力包括校友辅导计划，评估和评价部分，以及与纽约市工业，政府和志愿组织的伙伴关系。
