Federal Cyber Service: Scholarship for service

计算机工程(32)这个项目扩展了爱荷华州立大学(ISU)SFS网络兵团计划的能力。ISU被美国国家安全局指定为信息保障教育卓越学术特许中心，通过支持校园内的信息保障中心，进一步认识到信息保障(IA)领域的重要性。通过这一项目，执行支助股继续参与国家科学基金会的自给自足方案。来自电气和计算机工程系、计算机科学系、政治学系、数学系、教育领导系以及物流、运营和管理信息系统系的教员领导着跨学科网络兵团计划。学生与教职员工密切合作，接受IA培训，进行研究，并发展为领导者和团队成员。学生完成IA课程，并通过更深入的研究努力和与主要教授的参与来培养更深层次的解决问题的技能。所有学生都参加ISU SFS项目独特而关键的组成部分：领导力、团队合作和专业精神发展。扩大后的SFS计划为教师团队领导人提供了制定全年招聘计划的基础，特别强调：增加来自代表性不足群体的参与者数量；进一步加强遴选过程；支持强大的学生队列经验；扩大对学生的指导范围；更有系统地让所有学生参与IA研究；以及采用其他衡量计划成功与否的措施。这一基础设施允许在毕业后将100%的毕业生安置在联邦政府。ISU SFS计划为联邦工作人员提供新的专业人员，他们有能力以创新的方式解决关键联邦信息基础设施的安全问题，从而继续造福社会。它通过加强若干执行支助股的研究方案，解决了入侵检测系统、网络安全、数据隐私和安全、可靠的系统和网络以及安全政策等重要问题，从而为执行支助股知识库作出了贡献。

Computer Engineering (32) This project expands the capacity of the Iowa State University (ISU) SFS Cyber Corps program. Designated by the National Security Agency as a charter Center of Academic Excellence in Information Assurance Education, ISU further recognizes the importance of the information assurance (IA) field by supporting an IA Center on campus. Through this project, ISU continues participation in the NSF SFS program. Faculty from the Departments of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Political Science, Mathematics, Educational Leadership, and Logistics, Operations, and Management Information Systems lead the interdisciplinary Cyber Corps program. Students work closely with the faculty to receive IA training, conduct research, and develop as leaders and team members. Students complete IA courses and develop deeper problem-solving skills through more in-depth research efforts and involvement with major professors. All students participate in the unique and critical component of the ISU SFS program: leadership, teamwork and professionalism development. The expanded SFS program provides faculty team leaders with a foundation to develop a year-round recruiting plan with special emphasis on: increasing the number of participants from underrepresented groups; further enhancing the selection process; supporting the strong student cohort experience; increasing the scope of mentoring for students; more systematically involving all students in IA research; and employing additional measures of program success. This infrastructure allows placing 100% graduating students in the federal government after graduation.The ISU SFS program continues to benefit society by providing the federal workforce with new professionals who have the capacity to address the problems of securing critical federal information infrastructure in innovative ways. It contributes to the IA knowledge base by enhancing several ISU research programs that address important issues including intrusion detection systems; network security; data privacy and security; dependable systems and networks; and security policy.
