项目摘要

This project at the Polytechnic University of New York (NYU-Poly) is training a cadre of two-year and four-year faculty in cyber security. The faculty, who are recruited from urban inner-cities with socially diverse, economically disadvantaged, and underrepresented students, engage in an intensive six-week summer cyber-security course and also participate in on-going, cutting-edge cyber-security research projects with their mentors from NYU-Poly. The program provides the faculty with arc of experience starting from knowledge acquisition in the summer workshop, application and integration of the knowledge in a research project, transmission of this knowledge as they teach their classes, mentoring of their student teams for the Capture the Flag challenge, and finally the culmination of their experience in the national Capture the Flag challenge conducted by NYU-Poly that attracts thousands of students. Faculty develop and hone their research, communication, and presentation skills, which are critical to their professional growth and success. The faculty are introduced to a topic of critical national need and mentored to develop and offer courses that, in turn, introduce their students to concepts and challenges in cyber security. The project team is disseminating the results of project through the competitions and the TeachEngineering digital library, for adoption by others.

纽约理工大学 (NYU-Poly) 的这个项目正在培训一支由两年制和四年制网络安全教师组成的骨干队伍。这些教师是从城市内城区招募来的，这些学生有社会多元化、经济弱势和代表性不足的学生，他们参加为期六周的夏季强化网络安全课程，并参与正在进行的前沿网络安全研究项目和他们来自纽约大学理工学院的导师。该计划为教师提供了从夏季研讨会中获取知识、在研究项目中应用和整合知识、在课堂上传播这些知识、指导学生团队应对“夺旗”挑战的经验弧，最后是他们在纽约大学理工学院举办的全国夺旗挑战赛中的经验达到顶峰，该挑战赛吸引了数千名学生。教师发展和磨练他们的研究、沟通和演讲技能，这对于他们的专业成长和成功至关重要。向教师介绍国家关键需求的主题，并指导他们开发和提供课程，进而向学生介绍网络安全的概念和挑战。项目团队正在通过竞赛和 TeachEngineering 数字图书馆传播项目成果，以供其他人采用。
