UMBC Cybersecurity Scholarship for Service Program and Innovations in Cybersecurity Education Workshop Series

为了满足美国的网络安全需求，马里兰大学巴尔的摩县分校(UMBC)正在培养这一跨学科领域受过教育的专业人员，方法是根据CyberCorps®：服务奖学金(SFS)计划为学生提供奖学金，让他们在MMBC学习网络安全和信息保障。学者通过现有的计算机科学、计算机工程以及计算机科学和电气工程系的专业研究硕士：网络安全专业攻读学士或学士、硕士、学士/硕士、硕士或博士学位。还欢迎来自相关领域的合格学生，包括电气工程、信息系统、数学、物理、教育和公共政策。密歇根大学信息安全与保障中心的学生参与合作组织的指导研究项目，包括诺斯罗普·格鲁曼公司、JHU应用物理实验室、融合技术、国防部网络犯罪研究所、帕拉巴尔和密歇根大学信息技术办公室。UMBC的许多实验室都有研究机会，包括UMBC网络防御实验室，目前的项目包括数字云取证、取证可视化、高安全投票系统，以及太阳系互联网的延迟和中断容忍网络。该项目正在增加网络安全方面的合格专业人员数量，这增强了美国的安全和竞争力。为了提高网络安全教育的质量，在项目的第二至第四年，密歇根大学将主办一次为期一天的区域公共研讨会，重点关注K-12、本科生和研究生网络安全教育的创新。为了吸引和留住少数族裔和其他代表性不足的学生，UMBC的SFS努力与UMBC全国认可的Meyerhoff计划、女性技术中心和其他大学组织密切合作。

To meet America's cybersecurity needs, the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC) is developing educated professionals in this interdisciplinary field by offering scholarships for students to study cybersecurity and Information Assurance at UMBC under the CyberCorps®: Scholarship for Service (SFS) Program. Scholars pursue BA or BS, MS, combined BS/MS, MPS, or PhD degrees through existing programs in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, and the Masters in Professional Studies: Cybersecurity in the Department of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering. Qualified students from related fields also are welcome, including Electrical Engineering, Information Systems, Mathematics, Physics, Education, and Public Policy.Students at the UMBC Center for Information Security and Assurance engage in mentored research projects at partner organizations, including Northrop Grumman, JHU Applied Physics Lab, Convergent Technologies, DoD Cyber Crime Institute, Parabal, and the UMBC Office of Information Technology. Research opportunities exist at many UMBC labs, including at the UMBC Cyber Defense Lab, where current projects include digital cloud forensics, forensics visualization, high-security voting systems, and delay- and disruption-tolerant networks for a solar system Internet.This project is increasing the number of qualified professionals in cybersecurity, which strengthens American security and competitiveness. To enhance quality in cybersecurity education, in years 2-4 of the project, UMBC is hosting a one-day regional public workshop focusing on innovations for K-12, undergraduate, and graduate cybersecurity education. To attract and retain minorities and other underrepresented students, UMBC's SFS effort cooperates closely with UMBC's nationally recognized Meyerhoff Program, Center for Women in Technology, and other university organizations.
