Please read-while not paid...this could be a tremendous opportunity --especially for freshmen and sophomores.

DHS has launchedthe 2015 Secretary’s Honors Program Cyber Student Volunteer Initiative through which approximately 75 undergraduate students will complete cybersecurity-focused assignments at more than 50 locations across the country. Selected student volunteers will learn about the DHS cybersecurity mission and engage in hands-on cybersecurity work related to digital forensics, network diagnostics, incident response and a variety of other specialties.

The department has extended the application deadline to January 9, 2015, and interested students may apply via USAJobs.gov. If you have not done so already, please share this opportunity with possible applicants at your institution. You can find more information about the Initiative in the attached description, and feel free to direct any questions to CMSI@hq.dhs.gov.
