This joint project between University at Buffalo (UB) and Hilbert College (HC) is expanding capacity in Information Assurance (IA) and Computer Forensics in the Western New York region via institutional faculty development as well as technical experiences for faculty. The end goal of our effort is to carve out a flexible curriculum pathway to specialize in IA and computer forensics with multiple exit points for the students depending upon their career goals. The universities are offering workshops and intensive seminars to faculty in the neighboring community colleges and universities to learn about recent advances in IA and computer forensics and (b) technical experience for faculty at UB and HC so that the IA faculty can then develop full-fledged computer forensics courses and teach them to students with hands-on experience. The project has two unique aspects. First, it draws upon the expertise from The Cyber Security Education Consortium (CSEC) at Oklahoma and involves the members of the Regional Computer Forensics Laboratory (RCFL) of Western NY in this learning process. Second, it provides multiple exit points for students at the associate degree level, BS/BA level and MS/MBA level at three different colleges and universities without the need for relocating students. While the Western NY RCFL does not currently have an Honors Internship program, project leaders anticipate that it will have one in the near future - similar to all other RCFLs with an internship program (preference will be given to local students within community distance). As a multidisciplinary Center of Academic Excellence in Information Assurance Education (CAE/IAE), UB faculty members anticipate IA expansion through various disciplines ranging from computer science and engineering and mathematics to management sciences and legal/ethical studies. The broader impacts of this project include: (a) the furtherance of ongoing collaborations with two-year colleges, Erie Community College (ECC, a Minority Institution) and Genesee Community College, (b) a partnership with the Erie County Department of Police Services through the involvement of the Commissioner of Police Services on the Center's advisory board, and (c) active engagement of students from underrepresented groups through the local Minority Management Society and the SUNY Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation program as well as the Women in Management and Engineering and Science groups.

布法罗大学（UB）和希尔伯特学院（HC）之间的这一联合项目正在通过机构教师发展以及教师的技术经验来扩大西纽约地区的信息保障（IA）和计算机取证能力。我们努力的最终目标是开辟一个灵活的课程途径，专门从事IA和计算机取证，并根据学生的职业目标为他们提供多个出口点。这些大学正在为邻近社区学院和大学的教师提供研讨会和密集的研讨会，以了解IA和计算机取证的最新进展以及（B）UB和HC教师的技术经验，以便IA教师可以开发全面的计算机取证课程，并将其教授给具有实践经验的学生。该项目有两个独特的方面。首先，它借鉴了俄克拉荷马州的网络安全教育联盟（CSEC）的专业知识，并让纽约州西部的区域计算机取证实验室（RCFL）的成员参与到这个学习过程中。第二，它为三所不同学院和大学的副学士学位、学士/学士学位和硕士/工商管理硕士学位的学生提供了多个出口点，而无需重新安置学生。虽然纽约西部RCFL目前没有荣誉实习计划，但项目负责人预计，它将在不久的将来有一个-类似于所有其他RCFL的实习计划（优先考虑社区距离内的当地学生）。作为学术卓越的信息保障教育（CAE/IAE）的多学科中心，UB教师预计IA通过从计算机科学和工程，数学到管理科学和法律的/伦理研究等各个学科的扩展。该项目的广泛影响包括：（a）继续与两年制学院、伊利社区学院（ECC，一个少数民族机构）和杰内塞社区学院，（B）与伊利县警察局建立伙伴关系，让警察局局长参与该中心的咨询委员会，以及（c）通过当地少数民族管理协会和纽约州立大学路易斯·斯托克斯少数民族参与联盟计划以及管理、工程和科学领域的妇女团体，积极吸引来自代表性不足群体的学生。
