REU Site: An REU Site on Security for Mobile Sensing

本CISE研究经验的本科生（REU）网站奖资金一个新的REU网站专注于安全和移动的传感在哥伦布州立大学。REU网站每年夏天将为8名本科生提供在最先进的研究实验室中与教师导师合作开展网络安全和移动的传感重要领域项目的机会。 移动的计算设备及其相关联的感测能力和应用在我们的社会中是普遍存在的。 这些设备和通过相关应用程序收集的数据的安全性是所有公民的重要关注点。 这个网站将为学生提供一个机会，探索和深入研究一个相关和及时的计算领域。 REU网站将受益于访问哥伦布州立大学（CSU）的新网络安全中心。 CSU也被国家安全局设计为信息保障教育学术卓越中心。学生们还将参加一些专业发展活动和实地考察，这将使他们为未来的职业生涯做好准备，成为网络安全领域的计算专业人员，这是未来劳动力的关键需求领域。该网站由国防部与NSF REU项目合作支持。该项目由一位杰出的教师导师领导，指导本科生探索与安全和移动的传感相关的问题。该网站的目标是激发本科生，并提供研究经验，否则可能没有机会在自己的机构的研究经验的学生。 该网站将特别寻求从计算领域代表性不足的群体中招募学生。该网站有潜力通过研究和实现安全和隐私的算法、框架和应用程序，智能数据收集和分析，室内定位方法以及移动的传感器网络环境的电源管理机制，为移动的传感和安全领域做出贡献。 计算机安全和移动的传感是许多消费产品的基本组成部分，也是医疗保健、交通和交通控制、家庭和楼宇自动化、环境监测和能源等领域的许多常见应用的基本组成部分。这些都是应该吸引学生的领域，并积极让他们参与对计算研究社区有意义的项目，并与所有公民相关。

This CISE Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Site award funds a new REU site focused on the security and mobile sensing at Columbus State University. The REU site will provide 8 undergraduates per summer the opportunity to work with faculty mentors in state-of-the-art research labs on projects in the important areas of cybersecurity and mobile sensing. Mobile computing devices and their associated sensing capabilities and applications are pervasive in our society. Security of these devices and the data that is collected through related applications is an important concern to all citizens. This site will give students an opportunity to explore and delve deeply into an area of computing that is relevant and timely. The REU Site will benefit from access to the new Cybersecurity Center at Columbus State University (CSU). CSU was has also been designed as a Center for Academic Excellence in Information Assurance Education by the National Security Agency. The students will also participate in a number of professional development activities and field trips that will prepare them for future careers as computing professionals in the field of cybersecurity, an area of critical need for the workforce of the future. This site is supported by the Department of Defense in partnership with the NSF REU program.The project is led by an outstanding of faculty mentors to guide undergraduates in explorations of problems related to the security and mobile sensing. The goal of the site is to excite undergraduates and to provide research experiences to students who might not otherwise have opportunities for research experiences at their own institutions. The site will particularly seek to recruit students from groups under-represented in computing fields The site has the potential to will contribute to the field of mobile sensing and security through research and implementation of algorithms, frameworks, and applications for security and privacy, intelligent data collection and analysis, indoor location methods, and power management mechanisms for mobile sensor network environments. Computer security and mobile sensing are fundamental components of many consumer products as well as many common applications in areas such as healthcare, transportation and traffic control, home and building automation, environmental monitoring, and energy that are important in our society. These are all areas which should appeal to students and actively engage them in projects that are meaningful to the computing research community and relevant to all citizens.
