The University of North Texas (UNT) has received a National Science Foundation (NSF) award for CyberCorps: Scholarship for Service (SFS) to provide scholarships, including stipends, tuition, health insurance, travel and textbooks, to enable US citizens to pursue a PhD degree in information systems with information assurance (IA) concentration on a full-time basis. The University of North Texas Interdisciplinary Information Assurance PhD Program responds to the varied and changing needs of an information age. This program's graduates will be prepared to contribute to the advancement and evolution of the information society in a variety of roles and settings as scientists, educators, administrators, and information security architects.

We are looking for high-quality SFS students. The selected students receive a $30K/nine-months stipend. As summer research/interns, students will receive a salary from their host organization for three months (salary varies based on the host organization). SFS students receive tuition scholarships of $8.1K/year. In addition, students will be supported $4K/year for the travel, $1.2K/year for books, and $1.5K/year for health insurance.

If you have any current or recent Master's graduates who are looking to start a PhD degree in Information Systems or closely related field, we would be grateful if you could pass this information to them.
