We are seeking nominations for advanced PhD students to participate in and showcase faculty research highlights at the upcoming NCEC.

The 2024 CAE-R CoP Research Symposium will be held at Marriott St. Louis Grand, on Thursday, October 10, 2024, as part of the National Cybersecurity Education Colloquium (NCEC). The goals of the symposium are to (1) further establish the CAE-R as a community of practice, (2) build a community that involves PhD students, and (3) showcase the excellent research done at CAE-R designated institutions.

PhD Candidates Presentations. Like last year, we strive for the CAE-R Symposium to be a unique opportunity to both (a) showcase our outstanding PhD students and (b) identify and connect them with potential future faculty hires. We are seeking up to two nominations from each CAE-R institution. Students will be selected based on diversity of research areas and representation of a variety of CAE-R institutions. We expect that we will be able to offer travel support to some of the students (support will only be available for US citizens and permanent residents).

CAE-R PoCs and faculty members should nominate their PhD students by August 9, 2024, using this Qualtrics Form.

Research Highlights Posters. With the goal of fostering awareness and collaboration between CAE-R institutions and showcase the research to government representatives, we will also have a Research Highlights Poster Session to feature papers that have been recently published. We encourage CAE-R PoCs to nominate up to three research papers in cybersecurity from their institution that have appeared (or will appear) in a 2023 or 2024 cybersecurity research conference.

CAE-R PoCs and faculty members should nominate research highlight posters by August 9, 2024, using this Qualtrics Form.
