The Division of Mathematical Sciences (DMS) is hosting a webinar to provide an overview of the NSF Secure and Trustworthy Cyberspace (SaTC) program.
Traditionally, mathematics and statistics have played a key role in the implementation of cryptographic systems, both in their design and in analysis of their vulnerability to cryptanalytic attack. Today, the range of activities in the cybersecurity domain has broadened and includes aspects of privacy and analysis of a host of other vulnerabilities for which the expertise of researchers in DMS disciplines is needed. The SaTC program welcomes proposals for projects that draw on expertise in algebra and number theory, combinatorics, computational mathematics, statistics, applied mathematics, and probability, as well as other disciplines. Proposals that advance the field of cybersecurity and privacy within a single discipl

The National Science Foundation’s Directorate for Education and Human Resources invites your participation in a listening session providing an opportunity to stimulate discussion with respect to the potential for online learning environments (e.g., distance learning tools, virtual laboratories, access to museum exhibits and other out-of-school STEM education resources) to change the organization of STEM education. It is not intended to make recommendations to NSF.
