This National Science Foundation (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CFDA 47.070) Project Grant of $299,486 awarded to George Mason University (Mason) aims to develop a curriculum that helps future cybersecurity professionals adopt an ethical and responsible mindset when working with AI-enabled technologies.

The project will create a series of four case studies highlighting social and ethical risks associated with AI systems used for security-related applications, such as automated video surveillance, smart home privacy, and algorithmic hiring. These interactive case studies will be integrated into undergraduate and graduate cybersecurity courses to reinforce students' perspective-taking abilities and prepare them to consider ethics and responsibility when securing AI-powered technologies. The curriculum development will be paired with a concept map assessment approach grounded in security standards to evaluate student learning and the transferability of these ethical mindsets to the workforce.
