Cybersecurity Fellows: The Scholarship for Service Program at Georgetown University

该项目寻求在乔治城大学建立一个新的CyberCorps®：服务奖学金(SFS)计划，为进入联邦、州、地方或部落政府的工作人员培养高素质的网络安全专业人员。该提案提出了一个创新的教育项目，对网络安全采取了多方面的方法。乔治敦大学的网络安全研究员计划将为学生提供关于网络安全的广泛看法。SFS学生不仅将学习网络安全的技术方面，还将了解国内外政策、政治、商业、文化和伦理。该计划的毕业生将为联邦、州、地方和部落政府组织带来广泛的观点。该团队在网络安全的多个领域拥有丰富的经验，并在成功吸引学生参与研究、专业发展和将毕业生安置在政府组织中方面拥有既定的记录。越来越多的乔治敦大学的学生选择了技术领域，计算机科学入门课程的注册人数在过去四年里几乎增加了两倍。网络安全研究员计划旨在通过招聘、毕业并将女性和代表性不足群体的成员安排在政府职位上，使网络安全工作人员多样化。该项目将利用乔治敦大学与Cristo Rey高中网络的关系，从城市学校向乔治敦大学招收代表性不足的学生。丽晶学者计划是为STEM中代表性不足的学生提供的暑期桥牌项目，将帮助为严格的科学课程引入准备充分的学生。网络安全研究员计划将提供额外的教师指导、跨学科学术规划和就业安置服务。乔治敦大学被指定为国土安全部/国家安全局网络防御研究学术卓越中心，其安全项目与政策、法律、国际研究和数据科学等其他领域高度交叉。SFS学生将获得计算机科学、科学、技术和国际事务、安全研究、公共政策和技术管理方面的网络安全学位。该项目跨学科性质的一些例子包括：监视和审查；信息战；网络空间和美国力量；网络冲突和政策困境；以及网络安全冲突和政策。计算机科学系的教职员工定期与政府机构合作并保持密切联系，这些机构包括美国海军研究实验室、国土安全部、国家标准与技术研究所、海军学院和国家卫生研究院。学生将有机会在乔治敦大学的安全和软件工程研究中心参与关于软件安全、系统安全和软件技术问题的应用和基础研究。

This project seeks to establish a new CyberCorps®: Scholarship for Service (SFS) program at Georgetown University to prepare highly-qualified cybersecurity professionals for entry into the federal, state, local, or tribal government workforce. The proposal presents an innovative education program that takes a multifaceted approach to cybersecurity. The Cybersecurity Fellows Program at Georgetown will provide students with a broad view of cybersecurity. SFS students will not only learn the technical aspects of cybersecurity but will also understand domestic and foreign policy, politics, business, culture, and ethics. It is this broad view that the graduates of the proposed program will bring to Federal, State, Local, and Tribal Government organizations. The team has extensive experience in multiple areas within cybersecurity and has an established record of successfully engaging students in research, professional development, and in placing graduates in government organizations. More of Georgetown students have been choosing technical fields and the introductory computer science course enrollment has almost tripled in the last four years. The Cybersecurity Fellows program aims to diversify the cybersecurity workforce by recruiting, graduating, and placing women and members of underrepresented groups in government positions. The project will use Georgetown's relationship with the Cristo Rey network of high schools to recruit underrepresented students from urban schools to Georgetown. The Regents Scholars Program, a summer bridge program for underrepresented students in STEM, will help usher in well-prepared students for a rigorous science curriculum. The Cybersecurity Fellows program will offer additional faculty mentoring, interdisciplinary academic programming, and job placement services. Georgetown is designated as a DHS/NSA Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense Research and its security programs are highly interdisciplinary with other areas including policy, law, international studies, and data science. The SFS students will be offered cybersecurity degrees in Computer Science; Science, Technology, and International Affairs; Security Studies; Public Policy; and Technology Management. Some examples of the interdisciplinary nature of the program include courses such as: Surveillance and Censorship; Information Warfare; Cyberspace and American Power; Cyber Conflict and Policy Dilemma; and Cybersecurity Conflict and Policy. Faculty members in the Computer Science department regularly collaborate and maintain strong ties with government organizations, including the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory, the Department of Homeland Security, the National Institute of Standards and Technology, the Naval Academy, and the National Institutes of Health. Students will have an opportunity to participate in applied and basic research on software security, system security and software technology problems in Georgetown's Security and Software Engineering Research Center.
