This funding establishes a new Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Site at the Florida International University. Undergraduate students from across the nation will participate in summer research focused on the security of smart devices, particularly wearable devices. The research projects will introduce practical innovations and testbeds for maintaining the privacy and security of smart devices such as wearable technologies, sensors, and mobile devices as well as smart infrastructures involving smart buildings, smart grids, and smart lighting and communication infrastructures. The students should acquire skills that will lead to rewarding professional careers in areas that are vital for preserving our national security.The students will learn how to design, implement, and assess research projects in areas that are needed to ensure safety and privacy of all citizens. The site will focus on recruiting under-represented minorities, particularly drawing on the surrounding universities with large Hispanic populations. The students will use of state-of-the art facilities and devices run by faculty members with significant expertise in the security of smart things. The goals of the project include providing a quality research experience for undergraduates, increasing participation of female and under-represented minorities in computing fields, and preparing students to pursue graduate studies in cyber security fields, and building a community of security of smart things researchers. This site is co-funded by the CISE Secure and Trustworthy Cyberspace (SaTC) Program.

这笔资金为佛罗里达国际大学的本科生（REU）网站建立了新的研究经验。来自全国各地的本科生将参加夏季研究，重点是智能设备的安全性，尤其是可穿戴设备的安全性。 研究项目将介绍实用的创新和测试床，以维护智能设备的隐私和安全性，例如可穿戴技术，传感器和移动设备，以及涉及智能建筑，智能电网以及智能照明和通信基础架构的智能基础设施。 学生应获得技能，这些技能将导致在保护我们的国家安全至关重要的领域中获得奖励的职业。 。该网站将着重于招募代表性不足的少数民族，尤其是利用大量西班牙裔人口的周围大学。学生将使用具有智能事物安全专业知识的教职员工运营的最先进的设施和设备。 该项目的目标包括为本科生提供优质的研究经验，增加女性和代表性不足的少数群体在计算领域的参与，并准备学生在网络安全领域攻读研究生研究，并建立智能事物研究人员的安全社区。 该站点由CISE安全且值得信赖的网络空间（SATC）计划共同资助。
