Renewal: Scholarship for Service @ Carnegie Mellon

卡内基梅隆大学(CMU)是指定的国家网络防御教育、研究和网络运营学术卓越中心，该大学建议继续并扩大其对CyberCorps(R)：服务奖学金(SFS)计划的参与，为进入政府工作队伍培养高素质的网络安全专业人员。该项目将通过信息安全跨学科硕士项目塑造的严谨教育经验，与同行机构参与学习和研究社区，丰富元课程倡议，以及社区外联机会，为国家的网络安全工作人员做好准备。SFS计划为解决网络安全教育和劳动力发展的项目提供资金，包括为网络安全专业的学生提供奖学金。作为奖学金的回报，获奖者毕业后将在联邦、州、地方或部落政府组织中与网络安全相关的职位工作，任期与奖学金的期限相同。到目前为止，美国联邦政府已经雇用了198名卡内基梅隆大学的SFS毕业生，他们后来在国防部、国家安全局、联邦资助的研究和发展中心(FFRDC)和许多其他联邦组织服务和保护国家的信息基础设施。网络安全的学术课程以技术、跨学科的课程为特色，纳入了工程、计算机科学、商业和政策领域一流大学的商业和政策观点。CMU的CyLab是一家安全和隐私研究机构，是整个SFS计划中丰富的安全和隐私活动的焦点。CyLab致力于跨学科和跨学科的研究和教育，拥有来自多个系的109名教师，包括计算机科学、软件研究所、亨氏公共政策学院、信息网络研究所、电气和计算机工程等。CyLab是一个研究中心，涉及技术和社会问题、经济问题和政策问题。领先的网络安全研究人员、调查人员和教师与SFS的学生并肩工作，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。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

Carnegie Mellon University (CMU), a designated National Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense Education, Research and Cyber Operations, proposes to continue and expand its participation in the CyberCorps(R): 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 a rigorous educational experience shaped by an interdisciplinary master's programs in Information Security; participation in learning and research communities with peer institutions, enriching meta-curricular initiatives; and community outreach opportunities. The SFS program funds projects that address cybersecurity education and workforce development, including 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.To date, the U.S. federal government has hired 198 Carnegie Mellon 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. Academic programs in cybersecurity feature technical, interdisciplinary coursework that incorporates business and policy perspectives from top-ranked colleges in engineering, computer science, business, and policy. CMU's CyLab, a security and privacy research institute, serves as a focal point for the wealth of security and privacy activity across the SFS program. CyLab is committed to interdisciplinary and cross-disciplinary research and education, with 109 faculty from many departments, including Computer Science, Institute for Software Research, Heinz College of Public Policy, Information Networking Institute, Electrical and Computer Engineering and many more. CyLab is a hub for research that touches technical and societal problems, economic issues, and policy questions. Leading cybersecurity researchers, investigators and teaching faculty work side by side with SFS students to explore and advance critical areas such as software security, cryptography, reverse engineering, privacy, biometrics and cyber forensics.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
