The Cyber Summer Program (CSP) is the National Security Agency's premier outreach effort to the very best undergraduate and graduate computer science and engineering students in the country. Each summer we invite up to 16 exceptional students to participate in a 12-week program where they work together, and in teams, directly with NSA technical professionals on mission-critical cyber-related problems.
The goals of the Cyber Summer Program are to:
- Introduce our country's future leaders in cyber-related fields to the Agency's mission and share with them the excitement of working on problems of national importance,
- Provide a deep understanding of the vital role that computer science and engineering plays in enabling the Agency to tackle a diverse set of technical challenges,
- Encourage bright undergraduate computer science and engineering majors to continue their studies and pursue careers in the cyber-related fields,
and, of course, to
- Provide solutions to current operational problems.
The students participating in the program work on a broad range of problems involving applications of computer science and engineering. During the first weeks of the summer internship, they are broadly exposed to NSA's cyber mission through a variety of lectures and tours. The students are presented with eight current mission-driven problems and choose which problems they will focus on for the summer. The outstanding work accomplished by each student is documented in the CSP year-end report. Students learn and develop data analysis and exploitation techniques, apply what they learn to obtain real-time solutions, and experience the excitement of success built on hard work and innovation. All the students find the work at NSA very exciting and challenging.
