As advancements in connected technology and AI produce new threats to national security, the federal government needs proven cybersecurity engineers to protect its people, systems and interests. This project builds upon a 24-year effort at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) to strengthen the pipeline of federal cybersecurity professionals while increasing cross-disciplinary collaboration to meet the nation's evolving security needs in the era of AI. To address the unfulfilled demand for skilled security professionals in federal service, this project provides graduate students at CMU’s Information Networking Institute with full scholarships to support their successful pursuit of a master’s degree in information security or artificial intelligence and information security. The foundation of this project is the MS in Information Security (MSIS), CMU’s flagship cybersecurity degree founded in 2003, which is the cornerstone of the university’s designation as a National Center for Academic Excellence in Cybersecurity. Coursework that pairs a deeply technical curriculum in cybersecurity and AI engineering with interdisciplinary skills in policy, ethics, business and research results in Scholarship for Service graduates that are exceptionally prepared for service in the federal executive branch after graduation. Through this project, CMU leverages its expertise in cybersecurity and AI to advance the field and deepen national relationships. This proposal leverages CMU’s existing str
