Kennesaw State University’s Information Security Education Center to boost conference with grant money

Kennesaw State University has recently received a $50,000 grant to improve its annual conference for students studying cybersecurity, a growing field the university is hoping to expand.

The Virginia-based National Science Foundation awarded KSU’s Center for Information Security Education the grant. Housed in KSU’s Coles College of Business, the center was notified of the grant in July and plans to use it to fund programming for graduate and undergraduate students at its 12th Cybersecurity Education Research and Practice Conference on campus in October.

Herb Mattord, associate director of the Center for Information Security Education, said the grant will fund a graduate student research workshop that will include mentorships with five information services experts from across the country. For the full article click here
