A free, full-day summer program hosted by NYU Tandon School of Engineering, designed to introduce high school students to cybersecurity and computer science fundamentals, with a focus on empowering underrepresented groups in STEM.
The Computer Science for Cyber Security (CS4CS) program offers high school students an immersive introduction to cybersecurity and computer science fundamentals. Participants engage in hands-on challenges and research projects, exploring critical topics such as digital forensics, steganography, ethical hacking (white-hat hacking), and cryptography. Students gain practical skills in detecting cyber threats, investigating their origins, and developing foundational coding abilities. The curriculum also delves into the behavioral science behind common threats like phishing scams and identity theft, providing a comprehensive understanding of cybersecurity challenges. Through classes taught by NYU faculty and graduate students, the program aims to empower a diverse new generation of engineers, fostering a strong understanding of cybersecurity fundamentals and preparing them for future STEM pursuits.
A typical day involves full-day, in-person instruction and hands-on activities, focusing on cybersecurity fundamentals and challenges.
High school students residing in New York City or neighboring areas who are curious about cybersecurity and coding, and are highly motivated in STEM.
