This Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Site award renews an exemplary REU site at Oakland University. Each summer, undergraduate students from across the nation will work on challenging research problems related to cybersecurity, an area of national priority for our nation. The site includes a strong research component combined with professional development opportunities for the participating undergraduate students. The team will continue to use successful strategies employed in past REU Sites to recruit undergraduate students from groups traditionally under-represented in computer science. A particular focus will be on recruiting women and students from institutions where there are limited research opportunities. The ultimate goal is to contribute to the development of a diverse scientific workforce with expertise in areas critical to national security in the evolving global society of the future.This project is led by an outstanding team offering research experiences in topics that are current and of national interest. Students will learn how to use tools and techniques to solve problems that are timely and of relevance to the field of computer science as well as to our nation. The students are immersed into a research environment with all of its facets: participating actively in shaping a research project and in defining the solution; communicating to peers and other audiences about the research and their findings; visiting research laboratories and attending scientific and technical presentations; and forming collegial relationships with research teams that include faculty, graduate students, and other scientific researchers. The resulting research is often presented at professional conferences and included in technical publications thus contributing to the body of research critical to sustaining secure and trustworthy cyberspace.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.

本研究经验的本科生（REU）网站奖更新了奥克兰大学的示范REU网站。 每年夏天，来自全国各地的本科生将致力于与网络安全相关的具有挑战性的研究问题，这是我们国家的国家优先领域。该网站包括一个强大的研究组成部分，并为参与的本科生提供专业发展机会。 该团队将继续使用在过去的REU网站雇用成功的策略，从传统上在计算机科学代表性不足的群体招收本科生。将特别注重从研究机会有限的机构招聘妇女和学生。 该项目的最终目标是在未来不断发展的全球社会中，为发展一支具有国家安全关键领域专业知识的多元化科学队伍做出贡献。该项目由一个优秀的团队领导，该团队在当前和国家利益的主题上提供研究经验。学生将学习如何使用工具和技术来解决与计算机科学领域以及我们国家相关的问题。 学生们沉浸在一个研究环境中，它的所有方面：积极参与塑造一个研究项目，并在定义解决方案;与同行和其他观众交流有关的研究和他们的发现;参观研究实验室，参加科学和技术演示;并与研究团队，包括教师，研究生和其他科学研究人员形成合议关系。 其研究成果经常在专业会议上发表，并被收录在技术出版物中，从而为维持安全和值得信赖的网络空间的关键研究做出贡献。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
