Cybersecurity is a priority area of national need. As a multidisciplinary field, cybersecurity requires that the professionals have knowledge and skills in various disciplines. The REU site program offers unique multidisciplinary learning and research opportunities for undergraduate students in an inherently multidisciplinary cybersecurity discipline. Each student will be able to select his/her preferred mentor and work with the mentor to select an REU research project based on his/her interests and background. The students will master research methodologies and obtain valuable research experiences in an area of critical national need, and also better prepare for graduate studies. The REU program is also enriched through various seminars, social activities, and field trips to Naval Base Norfolk, and Navy Cyber Defense Operation Command (NCDOC).
