Education and Human Resource development By Ruzena Bajcsy TRUST TRUST:Team for Research in Ubiquitous Secure Technologies September 13th 2004 NSF STC Review
Education and Human Resource Development We believe that The TRUST agenda will have to change the core of the whole engineering education. That is: Curriculum development both at the undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate level. At our outreach programs It will have to integrate more than ever the engineering and social sciences TRUST September 13th 2004 NSF STC Review 2
What are we doing? Concrete examples at the undergraduate level At Stanford,a freshman seminar “Ten Ideas in Computer Security and Cryptography; a sophomore seminar “Computer security and privacy; At Berkeley, a freshman seminar “Information and Communication Technologies in Humanities and Social Science (more than half of the class are undeclared freshman); Many more, listed in the proposal
At the graduate level Berkeley, Cornell, CMU, and Stanford have all offered seminars in areas of “CyberSecurity:Issues in Privacy, Security and critical Infrastructure protection A new course is planned “Security Systems” associated with a security laboratory course. We already have several testbeds such as DETER and PlanetLab and several MOTE networks for this purpose.
Outreach The experience obtained already from these educational activities are and will be systematically transferred to various partners, such as San Jose State Univ., Mills College, Smith College, and many others. Vanderbilt will support the wide dissemination of the TRUSTed Systems design curricula and corresponding agenda.
