> As Associate-Director of the Center for Interdisciplinary Research and Education on Security and Privacy (CRISSP) at NYU, Polytechnic School of Engineering, I am writing you to inform about the possibility offered to PhD candidates by our program.  We are currently recruiting students (US citizens or green card holders)  for our PhD program and our INSPIRE fellowship in the area of Cyber-Security. NYU, Polytechnic School of Engineering is a top-ranked university and offers great opportunities for jobs after graduation. More information can be found at:
> http://engineering.nyu.edu/crissp/projects/inspire
> 
> 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 advisorThe program accepts applications from students enrolled or applying to Ph.D. programs in the 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, they are encouraged to apply at:
> http://engineering.nyu.edu/crissp/projects/inspire/inspire-application-form
> 
> Here's some details about our CRISSP Center which administer the INSPIRE fellowship program: 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.
