Subject: NYU: Polytechnic Institute: Fellowship for PhD Students

Dear Prof. Joel C. Adams,

As Assistant-Director of the Center for Interdisciplinary Research and
Education on Security and Privacy (CRISSP) an NYU Poly, I am writing you
to inform about
the possibility offered to PhD candidates by our program.

At NYU Poly, we are recruiting students (US citizens or green card holders) to apply for our PhD
program and our INSPIRE fellowship in the area of Cyber-Security. The Polytechnic
Institute of NYU is a top-ranked university and offers great opportunities for
jobs after graduation. More information can be found here:

  http://www.poly.edu/

Our NSF-Funded INSPIRE program is focused on Interdisciplinary Studies on
Cyber-Security. A very interesting feature of our program is to require both a
technical advisor and a non-technical (e.g., from other NYU schools like the
Stern School of Economics) co-advisor. Both advisors will be there to guide the
students in their research and to inspire them to adopt new approaches to
cyber-security.

The offered fellowship is for 2 years and covers tuition and a generous
stipend of $30,000 per year after which funding will be provided by the
students' primary advisor. One of the exciting news this year is that our program
now accepts students enrolled in Ph.D. programs from different NYU schools (NYU Poly,
NYU Courant, NYU Stern and NYU Wagner).

If you think that some of your students could be interested, and eligible, for
our INSPIRE program, I would be really happy to talk with you about it. My main
contacts are:

Here's some details about our CRISSP Center which administer the INSPIRE fellowship
program (http://crissp.poly.edu):

As of now, we are processing applications (for both the PhD program and the INSPIRE
fellowship) on a rolling bases and we would appreciate if you could discuss this
opportunity with your most promising students who might be interested in applying
(soon) to our program.

If you are interested in knowing more about the program and/or know any other
colleagues who might be interested in providing their students with this opportunity,
please feel free to contact me, I will be more than happy to discuss the details of
the program and help in the application process.

Thanks for your attention,

Best Regards,
