This project seeks to continue Dakota State University (DSU) participation in the CyberCorps®: Scholarship for Service (SFS) program to prepare highly-qualified Cybersecurity professionals for entry into the government workforce. DSU is one of the 13 Centers of Academic Excellence in Cyber Operations as designated by the National Security Agency (NSA) and graduates students in the most technical areas of Cybersecurity in their accelerated program where a bachelors and masters degree is earned in a total of five years. This project will enroll three cohort groups of 10 students each and will support them for the last three years before graduation. Almost half of students' activities are hands-on technical exercises in offensive security practices in hardware, operating systems, networks, databases, and software. All DSU CyberCorps® SFS members will take part in innovative mechanisms of community building such as the Cybersecurity Computer Club and taking part in the North Central Region on the Collegiate Cyber Defense Competition (CCDC) as a team member or administrator of the competition. The NSF's CyberCorps® SFS program funds projects that address Cybersecurity education and workforce development. The Scholarship Track provides funding to award scholarships to students in Cybersecurity. In return for their scholarships, recipients will work after graduation for a Federal, State, Local, or Tribal Government organization in a position related to Cybersecurity for a period equal to the length of the scholarship. The Capacity Track seeks innovative proposals leading to an increase in the ability of the United States higher education enterprise to produce Cybersecurity professionals.To date, DSU has supported a total of 29 CyberCorps® SFS students and formed strong partnerships with both federal and state agencies, including the NSA, Navy SPAWAR, and Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Lab. The applicable undergraduate degrees at DSU have 452 students in target majors, which are made up of 200 students in Cyber Operations, 80 students in Network & Security Administration, and 182 students in Computer Science. These three majors account for over 40% of the total on-campus student population. The graduates of DSU CyberCorps® SFS will be well versed in security policy, infrastructure operations, and defensive programming and exhibit strong oral and written communication skills.

该项目旨在继续达科他州立大学（DSU）参与CyberCorps®：服务奖学金（SFS）计划，为进入政府工作队伍准备高素质的网络安全专业人员。DSU是由国家安全局（NSA）指定的13个网络运营学术卓越中心之一，并在其加速计划中为网络安全最具技术领域的研究生提供学士和硕士学位，总共需要五年时间。该项目将招收三组学生，每组10名学生，并在毕业前的最后三年为他们提供支持。几乎一半的学生活动都是在硬件、操作系统、网络、数据库和软件方面进行攻击性安全实践的实际技术练习。DSU CyberCorps®SFS的所有成员将参加网络安全计算机俱乐部等创新社区建设机制，并作为比赛的团队成员或管理员参加中北部地区的大学网络防御竞赛（CCDC）。美国国家科学基金会的CyberCorps®SFS计划资助解决网络安全教育和劳动力发展的项目。奖学金项目为网络安全专业的学生提供奖学金。作为奖学金的回报，获奖者将在毕业后为联邦、州、地方或部落政府组织工作，担任与网络安全相关的职位，工作时间与奖学金的期限相同。能力跟踪寻求创新建议，以提高美国高等教育企业培养网络安全专业人员的能力。迄今为止，DSU共支持了29名CyberCorps®SFS学生，并与联邦和州机构建立了牢固的合作伙伴关系，包括国家安全局，海军SPAWAR和约翰霍普金斯大学应用物理实验室。DSU的目标专业有452名学生，其中网络运营专业200名学生，网络与安全管理专业80名学生，计算机科学专业182名学生。这三个专业占在校学生总数的40%以上。DSU CyberCorps®SFS的毕业生将精通安全政策，基础设施运营和防御性编程，并表现出强大的口头和书面沟通能力。
