This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Undergraduate Education aims to enhance undergraduate cybersecurity education through a mission-based learning model. With $292,359 in funding from July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2025, Boise State University will develop instructor and student lesson plans for a set of cybersecurity missions in an existing computer science course. Senior undergraduate and graduate computer science students will be trained to coach younger students through the missions. The missions are designed to improve students' technical and problem-solving skills through experiential learning that simulates real-world cybersecurity challenges. Lesson plans will be disseminated nationally to advance knowledge of using adversarial practices and mission-based learning in cybersecurity education. This award is being made through the NSF's Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics Education program (CFDA 47.076), which supports improving STEM education effectiveness.
