I am pleased to announce the designation of the Lane Department of Computer Science & Electrical Engineering as the host for West Virginia University's Institute for Information Assurance Studies (IIAS). Our department has a long record of successful work in the information assurance and computer security fields. Some of our academic programs which train students in the field of information assurance include:
The department also has highly active research programs in the fields of information assurance, computer security, biometric systems, and identity management. These research programs feature close collaborations with NASA, the FBI, the West Virginia State Police, and the National Archives. One of the jewels in this research program is the Center for Identification Technology Research (CITeR), a National Science Foundation-supported Industry/University Cooperative Research Center
With the designation of the Institute of Information Assurance Studies, we believe it will be possible to continue to grow the depth of our research and education programs in the field of information assurance, as well as increasing the synergy between existing activities. |
