Seymour Goodman, Regents Professor in the Sam Nunn School of International Affairs visited Florida Atlantic University, on November 17, where he discussed his article, “Building the Nation's Cyber Security Workforce: Contributions from the CAE Colleges and Universities.” 

The article published by ACM Transactions on Management Information Systems examines the necessary size and composition of the cybersecurity workforce in the U.S. Then Goodman further discusses what the nation’s workforce should look like and explains how the government-designated Centers of Academic Excellence could help close the workforce gaps.

Georgia Institute of Technology is helping recruit students interested in entering the cybersecurity field through the CyberCorps Scholarship for Service. The scholarship offers a generous stipend, paid tuition, guaranteed internship, in exchange for serving the federal government in a cybersecurity role after graduation. Seymour Goodman is one of the faculty contacts in the Sam Nunn School of International Affairs Ivan Allen College for the CyberCorps Scholarship for Service.
