As the first honors undergraduate program in cybersecurity in the United States, the University of Maryland’s Advanced Cybersecurity Experience for Students (ACES) program is a unique multidisciplinary living and learning and minor program within the University’s Honors College. ACES is designed to educate future leaders from all disciplines in the field of cybersecurity through rigorous, hands-on learning experiences, an intensive interdisciplinary curriculum, collaborative projects, and professional insight from industry and business leaders.
ACES was built with external partners in mind, offering opportunities for project-based coursework, connections to mentees, and more. Because of the unique nature of the creation of this program and the rising costs of instructors and materials, we request a monetary donation from corporate collaborators to build long-standing partnerships and ultimately gain access to these highly-skilled, sought-after graduates.
Located at the intersection of public and private industry, and in close proximity to the nation’s capital, the University of Maryland is an ideal location for technology development and partnerships in the cybersecurity field. This provides an opportunity to establish mutually beneficial, strategic relationships between your company and University of Maryland College Park students, faculty, and researchers through ACES.
