The University of Texas at Dallas (UTD) has identified the development of research and teaching programs to "make the nation secure" as one of its six strategic goals and establishes an NSF scholarship for Service (SFS) program. The program is built on strong educational and research foundations in Information Assurance (IA) that UTD has been developing since 2000. The main objectives of the project are to graduate at least 22 highly qualified students in the graduate level IA concentration track program and to provide active mentoring and support to successfully place the graduates in covered federal positions.A team of faculty, engaged in IA-related research funded by various government agencies, leverages these research activities to enhance the education process of SFS students. The program includes a substantial research experience and students are expected to publish papers in journals and conference proceedings. This integration of research, development and education efforts as well as close collaborations with industry, academia and research labs enable to recruit and graduate students with knowledge of cybersecurity both in theory and practice. The project reduces the current personnel gap in cyber security for the national information infrastructure and it implements a promising approach for recruiting women and minority students.

德克萨斯大学达拉斯分校 (UTD) 已将发展研究和教学项目以“确保国家安全”作为其六大战略目标之一，并设立了 NSF 服务奖学金 (SFS) 项目。该项目建立在 UTD 自 2000 年以来一直在开发的信息保障 (IA) 领域强大的教育和研究基础之上。该项目的主要目标是让至少 22 名高素质学生从研究生水平 IA 集中课程中毕业，并提供积极的指导和支持，以成功地将毕业生安置在联邦职位。由多个政府机构资助，从事 IA 相关研究的教师团队利用这些研究活动来加强 SFS 学生的教育过程。该计划包括丰富的研究经验，学生应在期刊和会议记录中发表论文。这种研究、开发和教育工作的整合，以及与行业、学术界和研究实验室的密切合作，使得能够招募和毕业具有理论和实践网络安全知识的学生。该项目缩小了国家信息基础设施网络安全方面目前的人员缺口，并实施了一种有前途的招募女性和少数民族学生的方法。
