NSU Recognized Nationally for Excellence in Cyber Research

Thanks to the efforts of Nova Southeastern University’s College of Computing and Engineering, NSU has been designated as a National Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Research (CAE-R) for the approved doctoral programs through academic year 2028.

The program’s criteria validate that NSU will serve the nation well in contributing to the protection of the national information infrastructure and addressing the critical shortage of professionals with cybersecurity skills.

This new designation complements NSU’s re-designation as a National Center of Academic Excellence in Cybersecurity (NCAE-C) – Cyber Defense in 2021 – but NSU now has the additional higher classification – “R” for research.  NSU is the only private not-for-profit university in Florida to hold both Cyber Research (CAE-R) and Cyber Defense (CAE-CD) designations under the NSA’s National Centers of Academic Excellence in Cybersecurity program.
