SFS: Capacity: A Streamlined Cyber-Security & Intelligence (CS&I) Pathway: A Collaborative Model between Two Centers of Academic Excellence (IC CAE & CAE2Y)

冰碛谷社区学院/芝加哥州立大学（MVCC/CSU）合作伙伴关系在芝加哥大都市社区建立了网络安全和情报（CS&amp；I）的本地教育管道。该项目解决了对训练有素的教师和学生的需求，以满足对csi专业人员日益增长的需求。这个项目在本科和研究生课程之间建立了通道。MVCC的学生，在现有的专业，如网络安全，地理空间信息系统，管理信息系统，计算机科学，刑事司法和其他社会和物理科学专业，可以在科罗拉多州立大学的本科专业，学术副修安全和情报（SIS）。这种伙伴关系建立在两个公认的学术卓越中心的基础上；科罗拉多州立大学的学术卓越情报社区中心（IC CAE）和国家安全局/国土安全部的两年制学院学术卓越中心（CAE2Y）在冰碛谷社区学院（MVCC）。该项目还利用了由美国国家科学基金会（NSF）资助的MVCC国家系统安全和信息保障支持中心（CSSIA）建立的资源和学术界。本项目通过利用和调整加州州立大学圣贝纳迪诺分校（CSUSB）先前资助的国家科学基金会在cs&i领域的项目，在三个关键领域丰富了SFS计划：1)将CSUSB网络情报课程的内容和课程纳入CSU的SIS本科辅修课程；2)在使用CSSIA网络安全课程的本地社区学院学生之间建立一条途径，使他们能够在科罗拉多州立大学获得安全和情报辅修专业的本科学位；3)在NSF ATE网络中心“CSSIA”及其附属社区学院网络与CSU网络情报之间建立类似于CyberWatch West和CSUSB的通道。该项目还包括一系列夏令营，让两年制院校的学生接触到CS&amp；I的就业机会。另外;该项目包括一个小规模的研究项目，探索在城市和不同的中学教室中教授和学习cs&i的方法，以及培养cs&i职业意识的策略。该研究项目利用基于课堂的行动研究（合作研究），教师与CS&amp；I专家合作，开发和提供CS&amp；I内容领域的教学。最终，研究结果可用于开发最佳实践，并在二级网络安全和情报教学领域产生理论。

The Moraine Valley Community College/Chicago State University (MVCC/CSU) partnership establishes a local educational pipeline in the cybersecurity and intelligence (CS&I) in the Chicago metropolitan community. The project addresses the need for both well-trained faculty and students to meet the growing need for CS&I professionals. This project creates pathways between undergraduate and graduate level programs. Students at MVCC, in existing majors like cybersecurity, geospatial information systems, management information systems, computer science, criminal justice and other social and physical sciences programs, can articulate to undergraduate programs at CSU with an academic minor in the security and intelligence (SIS). This partnership builds upon two recognized centers of academic excellence; the Intelligence Community Center for Academic Excellence at CSU (IC CAE) and the NSA/DHS Center for Academic Excellence in Two-Year Colleges (CAE2Y) at Moraine Valley Community College (MVCC). The project also leverages the resources and academic community established by the NSF ATE funded National Support Center for Systems Security and Information Assurance (CSSIA) at MVCC. This project enriches the SFS program by utilizing and adapting a previously funded NSF project in the area of CS&I at California State University, San Bernardino (CSUSB) in three key areas: 1) incorporate content and courses from the CSUSB Cyber Intelligence curriculum into the CSU's SIS undergraduate minor; 2) create a pathway between students from local community colleges using the CSSIA cybersecurity curriculum to articulate into undergraduate degrees at CSU with a security and intelligence minor; 3) build a pathway between the NSF ATE Cyber Center "CSSIA" and its network of affiliate community colleges and the CSU Cyber Intelligence similar to CyberWatch West and CSUSB. The project also includes a series of summer camps that expose students from two-year institutions to the career opportunities in CS&I. Additionally; the project includes a small-scale research program that explores the methods of teaching and learning CS&I and strategies to develop awareness of careers in CS&I in urban and diverse secondary classrooms. The research program utilizes classroom-based action research (collaborative research), where teachers, working collaboratively with CS&I experts, to develop and deliver instruction in the content area of CS&I. Ultimately, research findings could be used to develop best practices and to generate theory in the area of secondary level cybersecurity and intelligence instruction.
