CITADEL: Coordinated Information Technology and Assurance Development and Education Laboratory (SFS)

新墨西哥州矿业与技术学院（NMT）的协调信息技术和保障发展与教育实验室（CITADEL）为信息安全和保障的教育、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。CITADEL为教师提供与政府机构最优秀的学生和研究人员合作的更多机会，并协调NMT的CAEIAE、信息技术项目、计算机科学系和NMT的ICASA（复杂可加性系统分析研究所）部门的工作。当前SFS奖学金计划的延续包括定制的课程序列，以匹配学者在信息保证和安全，研究和专业发展以及指导组件方面的兴趣和研究领域。智力上的优点。CITADEL将NMT跨学科教师的专业知识与才华横溢的学生结合在一起，以解决信息保障和安全的真实的应用。目前的研究课题包括自适应控制和动态系统，基于Agent的金融系统建模仿真，软计算的应用，以及网络安全和性能。通过与教师研究人员的参与，SFS学者正在学习解决信息保证和安全的当前和未来的应用。CITADEL通过整合大量学生在信息保障方面的研究来扩展教育计划。CITADEL计划增加了美洲原住民，西班牙裔和妇女在信息保障和安全方面的代表性。在目前参加NMT计划的24名SFS学者中，三名是美洲原住民，一名是西班牙裔，一名是亚裔美国人，五名是女性。为了巩固这一成功，招聘和保留计划正在更新，以进一步提高学生的多样性。

The Coordinated Information Technology and Assurance Development and Education Laboratory (CITADEL) at the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology (NMT) 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. CITADEL provides faculty enhanced opportunities to work with the best students and researchers at government agencies and coordinates the efforts of NMT's CAEIAE, Information Technology Program, the Computer Science Department, and NMT's ICASA (Institute for Complex Additive Systems Analysis) division. This continuation of the current SFS scholarship program includes a customized course sequence to match the scholar's area of interest and research in information assurance and security, research and professional development, and mentoring components. Intellectual merit. CITADEL brings the expertise of NMT's interdisciplinary faculty together with talented students to address real applications of information assurance and security. Current research topics include Adaptive Control and Dynamic Systems, Agent-based Financial System Modeling & Simulation, Applications of Soft Computing, and Network Security and Performance. By participating with faculty researchers, SFS scholars are learning to address current and future applications of information assurance and security. CITADEL expands the educational program by integrating substantial student research in information assurance.Broader impacts. The CITADEL program increases the representation of Native Americans, Hispanics, and women in information assurance and security. Of the 24 SFS scholars currently participating in the NMT program, three are Native Americans, one is Hispanic, one is Asian American, and five are women. To build on this success, recruitment and retention programs are being updated to further improve on the diversity of the student body.
