CyberCorps: New Scholarships for Service (SFS) Program at the University of Kansas - Jayhawk SFS

这项提案将在堪萨斯大学启动一个名为Jayhawk SFS的CyberCorps®：服务奖学金(SFS)项目。拟议的Jayhawk SFS计划的目标是：建立一个积极、管理良好、以学生为中心的SFS计划；招收致力于网络安全专业和政府服务的优秀学生；为他们提供卓越的教育和专业培训，实现100%的留学生和安置；以及扩大主办机构的研究和教育能力。Jayhawk SFS计划将进行内部和外部评估，以确保计划的质量和持续发展。我们精心制订晋升、招聘、教育、研究、专业发展、外展、安排就业和评估计划，以物色资历优良和积极进取的学生，为他们提供卓越的教育和培训经验，从而扩展主办机构的教育和研究能力。建议的计划将培养训练有素的保安专业人员，以配合政府机构的需要。该计划将与堪萨斯州国民警卫队莱利堡的第一步兵师、美国陆军网络司令部(ARCyBER)和KU的研究生军事计划密切合作，以招募过渡士兵和退伍军人。此外，项目团队将与麦克奈尔学者计划等大学三人计划广泛合作，招募代表不足和服务不足的学生(例如，非裔美国人、西班牙裔美国人、土著学生和第一代大学生)。拟议的计划还将通过各种丰富的活动，增加少数族裔在网络安全教育中的代表性。通过外展和社区服务活动，Jayhawk SFS计划将向社区突出网络安全问题，介绍教育机会，激发公众意识，长期目标是改变人们对S的安全和隐私观念，改善他们在日常生活中的安全行为。

This proposal will inaugurate a CyberCorps®: Scholarship for Service (SFS) program at the University of Kansas under the name of Jayhawk SFS. The goals of the proposed Jayhawk SFS program are: establish an active, well-managed, student-centered SFS program; recruit outstanding students who are dedicated to cyber-security profession and government service; provide them with superior education and professional training, achieve 100% student retention and placement; and expand research and education capacities at the host institution. The Jayhawk SFS program will be evaluated internally and externally to ensure the quality and continuous development of the program. Promotion, recruitment, education, research, professional development, outreach, placement and evaluation plans are carefully crafted to identify well-qualified and highly-motivated students, provide them with outstanding education and training experience, and in-turn expand the education and research capacities at the host institution.The proposed project will produce well-trained security professionals to serve the needs of government agencies. The program will closely work with the 1st Infantry Division at Fort Riley, Kansas National Guard, U.S. Army Cyber Command (ARCYBER), and the Graduate Military Program at KU to recruit transitioning soldiers and veterans. In addition, the Project Team will extensively collaborate with University TRIO programs, such as the McNair Scholars Program, to recruit underrepresented and underserved students (e.g., African-Americans, Hispanic-Americans, indigenous students, and first-generation college students). The proposed program will also increase the representation of minorities in cybersecurity education through a variety of enrichment activities. Through outreach and community-service activities, the Jayhawk SFS program will highlight cybersecurity issues to the community, introduce educational opportunities, and stimulate public awareness with the long-term goal of changing people?s security and privacy perceptions and improving their security behaviors in daily life.
