The National Science Foundation Division of Graduate Education awarded the University of Cincinnati Sponsored Research Services Division $499,996 on September 1, 2026, to develop and deliver an undergraduate certificate program in artificial intelligence of things focused on national defense and security applications. The award funds development of the AIOT-EdNaDS (Educational Program on National Defense and Security-Centric Artificial Intelligence of Things) certificate program, an experiential learning program in computer science that integrates AI and machine learning with cybersecurity concepts for designing, deploying, and operating secure defense and security-centric systems. The curriculum employs a top-down learning structure combining guided project-based learning and problem-based learning modules incorporating model-eliciting activities and threshold concepts. The program addresses a gap in academic offerings by equipping undergraduate students with hands-on skills in AIOT systems to strengthen the national pipeline of AI and cybersecurity talent for defense and security roles. The award carries a period of performance from September 1, 2026, through August 31, 2029, with work performed in Cincinnati, Ohio. The project is funded under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076).
