This project seeks to continue Carnegie Mellon University participation in the CyberCorps®: Scholarship for Service (SFS) program to prepare highly-qualified Cybersecurity professionals for entry into the government workforce. This project will prepare the nation?s cybersecurity workforce through advanced studies with interdisciplinary strengths in engineering, computer science, humanities, management and policy, as defined by the National Initiative for Cybersecurity Education (NICE) Workforce Framework. It will support 4 cohorts of students, each comprised of approximately seven students with a technical focus in the Master of Science in Information Security Technology and Management program and up to four students with a policy focus in the Master of Science in Information Security Policy and Management program. This program will require a course in ethics for all CyberCorps® SFS students and a project in cybersecurity, either as part of their formal curriculum or through a research assistantship. 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, the U.S. federal government has hired 148 Carnegie Mellon CyberCorps® SFS graduates who have gone on to serve and protect the nation?s information infrastructure at the Department of Defense, National Security Agency, Federally Funded Research and Development Centers (FFRDC) and many other federal organizations. Carnegie Mellon has earned three national Center of Academic Excellence (CAE) designations in the areas of Information Assurance, Research and Cyber Operations. Leading cybersecurity researchers, investigators and teaching faculty work side by side with the CyberCorps® SFS students to explore and advance critical areas such as software security, cryptography, reverse engineering, privacy, biometrics and cyber forensics.

该项目旨在继续卡内基梅隆大学参与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。这个项目会让国家做好准备吗？根据国家网络安全教育倡议（NICE）劳动力框架的定义，通过在工程、计算机科学、人文科学、管理和政策方面具有跨学科优势的高级研究，培养美国的网络安全劳动力。它将支持4组学生，每组由大约7名信息安全技术与管理理学硕士课程的技术重点学生和最多4名信息安全政策与管理理学硕士课程的政策重点学生组成。该项目将要求CyberCorps®SFS的所有学生选修一门伦理学课程，并开展一个网络安全项目，作为其正式课程的一部分或通过研究助理奖学金进行。美国国家科学基金会?CyberCorps®SFS计划资助网络安全教育和劳动力发展项目。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，美国联邦政府已经雇用了148名卡耐基梅隆大学赛博军团SFS毕业生，他们已经继续服务和保护国家。美国国防部、国家安全局、联邦资助研究与发展中心（FFRDC）和许多其他联邦组织的信息基础设施。卡耐基梅隆大学在信息保障、研究和网络操作领域获得了三个国家学术卓越中心（CAE）的指定。领先的网络安全研究人员、调查人员和教学人员与CyberCorps®SFS学生并肩工作，探索和推进关键领域，如软件安全、密码学、逆向工程、隐私、生物识别和网络取证。
