Each student in the program may be supported for up to two years. The benefits are:

An undergraduate will be paid a stipend of $8,000 per academic year. A graduate student will be paid a stipend of $12,000 per academic year.

Additional support funds will be provided to cover the equivalent of on-campus room and board expenses: a single dorm room for undergraduate students, and graduate housing for graduate students.

Applicable tuition and fees, including any out-of-state and graduate student fees, will be paid on behalf of the scholarship recipients.

Each student will have a laptop computer and printer made available to them shortly after the beginning of the term.

Each student will participate on research projects investigating issues on information assurance.

Each student will participate in the SFS professional development course every semester to prepare for government service.

Each student will have access to the NMT SFS parallel computing facility.

Each student work directly with Dr. Liebrock and their student cohort on research.

The SFS program awards new scholarships for the Fall Semester of each year. April 24th is the application deadline, but the application process is competitive, so applicants should contact Dr. Liebrock before applying. Applicant presentations are normally scheduled for late April or early May.

The SFS program awards new scholarships for the Spring Semester of each year. November 24th is the application deadline, but the application process is competitive, so applicants should contact Dr. Liebrock before applying. Applicant presentations are normally scheduled for late November or early December.

Under exceptional circumstances, students may be admitted at other times.

Students can be in the program for one to two years, but are required to graduate within that time frame and then begin a period of paid service to the federal government equal to the time for which they received scholarship support.
