汉普顿大学是指定的国家网络防御教育学术卓越中心（CAE-CDE），建议继续并扩大其在CyberCorps（R）中的参与：服务奖学金（SFS）计划，以准备高素质的网络安全专业人员进入政府工作队伍。该计划将使汉普顿大学能够继续培养高技能的网络安全工作者，并解决缺乏学生（特别是来自代表性不足的社区）攻读研究生学位的问题。该奖学金计划的目标是支持网络安全专业人员的发展，包括汉普顿大学（IAC@HU）信息保障中心的本科和研究生水平。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，包括为网络安全学生提供奖学金。作为对奖学金的回报，获奖者将在毕业后为联邦、州、地方或部落政府组织从事与网络安全相关的工作，工作时间与奖学金的期限相等。SFS汉普顿大学信息保障研究生教育和培训奖学金（HU GETS-IA）计划旨在支持网络安全专业人员的发展。SFS学者将与高素质的教师导师密切合作，为相关和创新的网络安全研究做出贡献。作为他们的培训的一部分，参与的学生预计将发展自己的研究兴趣与教师顾问合作。计划组成部分包括：（i）促进SFS计划，并通过参加会议和招聘会发展实习和就业联系;（ii）要求学者参加计算机科学和网络安全方面的专业和技能发展活动;（iii）为学者提供指导;及（iv）要求参与至少一项网络安全竞赛，并发布/该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为是值得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的支持。

Hampton University, a designated National Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense Education (CAE-CDE) 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 program will allow Hampton University to continue to produce highly skilled cybersecurity workers and address the lack of students (particularly from underrepresented communities) that are pursuing graduate degrees. The goal of the scholarship program is to support the development of cybersecurity professionals, both undergraduate and graduate levels at the Information Assurance Center at Hampton University (IAC@HU). 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.The SFS Hampton University Graduate Education and Training Scholarships in Information Assurance (HU GETS-IA) program aims to support the development of cybersecurity professionals. SFS scholars will work closely with highly qualified faculty mentors to contribute relevant and innovative cybersecurity research. As part of their training, participating students are expected to develop their own research interests in collaboration with a faculty advisor. Program components include: (i) promoting the SFS program and developing internship and employment contacts through participation in conferences and job fairs; (ii) requiring scholars to attend professional and skills development events in computer science and cybersecurity; (iii) providing mentorship to scholars; and (iv) requiring participation in at least one cybersecurity competition and publish/present at least one paper or poster with original research.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.
