The Cyber Defense Education and Training (C-DET) Scholarship Program offered by Norfolk State University (NSU) Information Assurance, Research, Education and Development Institute (IA-REDI) is a Federal Cyber Service: Scholarship for Service (SFS) program which is supporting three cohorts of undergraduate and graduate students in Information Assurance (IA).Highly trained NSU IA-REDI faculty with expertise in information assurance are serving as instructors and mentors for the SFS Scholars. C-DET Scholars are engaging in cutting edge research projects and have access to state of the art equipment and IA industry leaders. The goals of this project include: (a) Guiding students in obtaining meaningful summer internships and permanent placement in the Federal Government. (b) Providing mentoring and close monitoring to ensure their success in the program. (c) Involving students in research projects and requiring presentations on IA topics to faculty and peers in an active seminar series. (d) Providing scholarship recipients with opportunities to interact with IA experts from industry and academia via guest lectures and industry tours. (e) Engaging scholarship recipients in organizations such as the Information Assurance Club, and competitions such as the Mid-Atlantic Regional Collegiate Cyber Defense Competition (CCDC) and the Digital Forensics Challenge (DC3).The project is having an immediate impact on the cybersecurity capabilities of the federal workforce by providing graduates with security skills to federal agencies. NSU's Computer Science Department consists of approximately 300 undergraduate and graduate students of which 90% belong to various minority groups. The establishment of this scholarship program is having an immediate impact on increasing the number of trained IA professionals from under-represented groups entering the Federal Cyber Service program. The project is conducting IA awareness and education activities involving high school students through various departmental and university liaison programs.

由诺福克州立大学（NSU）信息保障，研究，教育和发展研究所（IA-REDI）提供的网络防御教育和培训（C-DET）奖学金计划是一个联邦网络服务：服务奖学金（SFS）计划，该计划支持信息保障（IA）的三个本科生和研究生群体。训练有素的NSU IA-具有信息保证专业知识的REDI教师担任SFS学者的讲师和导师。C-DET学者正在从事尖端的研究项目，并有机会获得最先进的设备和IA行业领导者。该项目的目标包括：（a）指导学生获得有意义的暑期实习机会和在联邦政府的长期安置。(b)提供指导和密切监督，以确保他们在计划中取得成功。(c)让学生参与研究项目，并要求在一个活跃的研讨会系列中向教师和同行介绍IA主题。(d)通过客座讲座和行业图尔斯参观，为奖学金获得者提供与来自行业和学术界的IA专家互动的机会。(e)让奖学金获得者参与信息保障俱乐部等组织，以及中大西洋地区大学生网络防御竞赛（CCDC）和数字取证挑战赛（DC 3）等竞赛。该项目通过为联邦机构提供安全技能的毕业生，对联邦劳动力的网络安全能力产生了直接影响。NSU的计算机科学系由大约300名本科生和研究生组成，其中90%属于各种少数民族。该奖学金计划的设立对增加来自代表性不足群体的训练有素的IA专业人员进入联邦网络服务计划的人数产生了直接影响。该项目正在通过各部门和大学的联络方案开展有高中生参加的IA意识和教育活动。
