The collaboration could strengthen cybersecurity research and the facilitation of engineering projects supporting DoD Red Team operations, utilizing the more than $10 million received last year.

While the research and engineering projects will serve multiple objectives, AAMU students will gain exposure to real-world research, advanced problem solving, as well as specialized engineering projects.

Moreover, AAMU will be able learn ways to shape and hone its curriculum to avoid gaps in the course offerings, while matching current and future requirements needed for today’s fast pace and ever-evolving cyber domain.
