Cyber Policy Leadership Institute for Racially-Diverse Students

The cyber policy leadership institute aims to provide racially-diverse undergraduate and graduate students, particularly students enrolled at Historically Black Colleges or Universities (HBCU), Minority-Serving institutions (MSI), and Tribal Colleges and Universities (TCU), with opportunities to learn and engage in domestic and international cybersecurity public policy. 

The institute will help train students and create policies through a racial equity lens that will create better solutions to address the evolving cyber threats and empower participation from those historically underserved and underrepresented.  As participants in the leadership institute, students will have access to mentorships and internships in cybersecurity and public policy. In addition, students will have opportunities to further their education and networking through virtual and in-person professional and community events.
