Renewal of Information Assurance Excellence Program

加州州立大学圣贝纳迪诺分校（CSUSB）的Cybercorps®：服务奖学金（SFS）项目通过动态课程、独特的应用学习要求和多样化的学生群体，促进网络安全卓越。该课程是围绕政府机构寻找合格学生的需求而设计的。虽然全国各地的许多SFS项目都侧重于政策；技术管理；或安全编程、设计开发；中南财经大学创建了一个课程，结合了各种项目的元素，包括国家安全研究的一些元素。一个典型的CSUSB网络军团学生精通网络安全政策、战术、威胁分析、反情报、网络、数据库、攻防黑客和渗透测试以及取证，所有这些都具有应用专业经验。所有SFS赛博军团的学生都面临着各种各样的挑战，包括SCADA安全；网络防御和取证竞赛；还有课外活动，比如社会工程、人身安全和情报收集。CSUSB的服务区域人口密集，居民来自不同的种族背景，包括那些目前在网络安全领域代表性不足的群体。大多数CSUSB赛博军团的学生都是第一代少数族裔学生，他们从社区大学转学，通常来自低收入和弱势家庭，与非第一代同龄人相比，他们进入大学时在学术和社会方面的准备不足。从辅导到礼仪再到职业行为，CSUSB非常重视确保这些多样化的学生群体（50%的西班牙裔，43%的女性）学习成功获得和保持专业就业所需的技能。CSUSB网络军团计划98%的安置率支持联邦网络安全任务。

The Cybercorps®: Scholarship for Service (SFS) program at California State University San Bernardino (CSUSB) promotes cybersecurity excellence through a dynamic curriculum, unique applied learning requirements, and a diverse student population. The curriculum is designed around the needs of government organizations seeking well-qualified students. While many SFS programs across the country focus on policy; management of technology; or secure programming, design and development; CSUSB has created a curriculum that combines the elements of various programs, including some elements of national security studies. A typical CSUSB Cybercorps student is well versed in cyber security policy, tactics, threat analysis, counter intelligence, networking, database, offensive and defensive hacking and penetration testing, and forensics, all with applied professional experiences. All SFS Cybercorps students are challenged in a variety of ways including SCADA security; cyber defense and forensics competitions; and extracurricular activities such as social engineering, physical security, and intelligence gathering. CSUSB's service area is richly populated with residents from diverse ethnic backgrounds, including those groups that are currently underrepresented in cybersecurity field. Most CSUSB Cybercorps students are first generation minority students, transferring from community colleges, often from low-income and disadvantaged backgrounds, coming to college less academically and socially prepared than their non-first generation peers. From tutoring to etiquette to professional behavior, CSUSB places great emphasis on ensuring this diverse student cohort (50% Hispanic, and 43% female) learns the skills necessary to successfully obtain and retain professional employment. The CSUSB Cybercorps program's 98% placement rate supports the federal cybersecurity mission.
