WGU is now designated as an NSA Center of Academic Excellence in Cybersecurity - GizmoJack - 09-25-2021
Institutions that receive a CAE-C designation have met the rigorous requirements set forth by the sponsors of the program, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the National Security Agency (NSA). The NSA awards CAE-C designations to institutions that commit to producing cybersecurity professionals that will reduce vulnerabilities in our national infrastructure.
Designated educational institutions are eligible to apply for scholarships and grants through the Department of Defense Cyber Scholarship Program (DoD CySP) and can apply for the National Science Foundation (NSF) CyberCorps.
Good news for all you cybersecurity majors!
