This award is to set a new site for Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) in the Computer Science Department at the Missouri University of Science and Technology. Each summer a cohort of undergraduate students will visit Missouri S & T campus to work with faculty in small groups to design, implement, and evaluate research projects involving Cybersecurity, Data Analytics, and Blockchain for securing systems such as Cyber-physical Systems. The site will focus on recruiting under-represented and women students from diverse groups in computing fields from 2 to 4-year institutions. The students will participate in professional development activities that make them more aware of graduate school and professional aspects of a computing career. The students will be able to use the state-of-the-art facilities available at the university and interact with faculty mentors to conduct challenging and timely research on emerging technologies to develop secure systems for the future.This new REU Site at The Missouri University of Science and Technology will focus on research projects involving Secure Data Sharing Scheme for Cloud, IoT Access Control Using Permissioned Blockchain, Security and Trustworthiness in Data-Driven CPS and IoT and Crowd-Audit in ML-based Systems. The use of cybersecurity across different domains and technology offers an effective means for establishing secure cyberinfrastructures across a wide variety of applications thus, contributing toward a technology-based society. REU students, postdocs, graduate students, and faculty will have the opportunity to explore problems that are important and timely, and relevant to our society. This project will also build human capacity in cybersecurity, machine learning, CPS, and IoT research and knowledge. The program will provide experiences to undergraduate students that may influence their choices about further education and future careers and continue to give them the confidence to pursue these choices and thus, increase the size and diversity of the scientific workforce.This site is supported by the Department of Defense ASSURE Program in partnership with the NSF REU Program.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.

该奖项旨在为密苏里科学技术大学计算机科学系的本科生（REU）设定一个新的网站。每年夏天，一批本科生都会参观密苏里州S＆T校园与小组的教职员工一起设计，实施和评估涉及网络安全，数据分析和区块链的研究项目，以确保网络物理系统等系统。该网站将着重于招募人数不足的人和来自2至4年机构的计算领域的不同群体的女学生。学生将参加专业发展活动，使他们更加了解计算职业的研究生院和专业方面。学生将能够使用大学可用的最先进的设施，并与教师互动，对新兴技术进行挑战和及时的研究，以为未来开发安全的系统。系统。在不同领域和技术上使用网络安全性提供了一种有效的手段，可以在各种应用程序上建立安全的网络基础设施，从而为基于技术的社会做出了贡献。 REU学生，博士后，研究生和教职员工将有机会探索重要，及时且与我们的社会相关的问题。该项目还将在网络安全，机器学习，CPS和IoT研究和知识方面增强人类能力。该计划将为本科生提供经验，这些学生可能会影响他们对进一步的教育和未来职业的选择，并继续使他们有信心追求这些选择，因此，增加了科学劳动力的规模和多样性。该站点得到了国防安全计划的支持。更广泛的影响审查标准。
