Dr. Saxena to Co-Lead a New $2M NSF SFS (Cyber AI) Program

Posted on July 27, 2026 by nsaxena

We have been awarded a new ~$2 Million NSF SFS (Scholarship for Service) grant, funded under the new incarnation of the Cyber AI program. Led by our Cybersecurity Center. This will be Dr. Saxena’s 3rd SFS program in the past 10 years (and about $10 Million in funding) that he will be co-leading or leading, including at UAB (lead) and TAMU (2 programs; co-lead). Way to go! Cybersecurity education rocks, with or without AI!

Please send your kids out to us so we can train them to serve in the US government cybersecurity workforce and Make America Secure Again!
