The U.S. National Science Foundation CyberCorps Scholarship for Service program is renewing funding for seven academic institutions, providing more than $24 million over the next four years. These awards build on a prior investment of $29 million announced early this year.
The funding supports institutions "that have demonstrated exceptional success and innovative advancements to their existing projects with the aim of fostering a robust workforce and growing interest in cybersecurity careers," NSF Director Sethuraman Panchanathan said in a statement.
The awardees of renewed funding are: University of Alabama at Birmingham; California State University, Sacramento; University of Tennessee at Chattanooga; Tuskegee University; SUNY at Buffalo; Mississippi State University; and Idaho State University.
