Call for Faculty Talks, Student Research Papers, and Student Posters

Department of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering
University of Maryland, Baltimore County  

9-4 Friday, May 5, 2023
Atrium, ECS Building, and online  

The Event 

2023 CSEE Research Day celebrates the research accomplishments made by UMBC CSEE faculty and students in the 2022-2023 academic year. A single track will combine computer science, electrical engineering, computer engineering, cybersecurity, and data science. The event will take place from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm on Friday, May 5, in the ECS Atrium, with talks presented remotely. It will include research talks by UMBC students and faculty, student research awards, lunch, and a student poster session. The event is free and open to the public.

What to Submit  

Faculty Talks. We seek UMBC CSEE faculty to present their best research accomplishments from 2022-2023. There will be five faculty talks, each 20 minutes long. The talks should describe recent concrete research accomplishments (not ongoing research) that are understandable to most CSEE faculty. Submit your name, lab, talk title, and informative abstract in ASCII (maximum 350 words).

Student Research Prizes and Talks. We invite UMBC CSEE undergraduate and graduate students to have their best research papers considered for the prizes ($100 gift certificate each) of Best Undergraduate Research, Best MS Research, and  Best Ph.D. Research. Winners will present their research in 20-minute talks. Submit name, lab, title, informative abstract (in ASCII), one technical report (a pdf file), one description of research novelty/impact, and a letter of approval from your advisor. To qualify, the work must have been written, submitted, or accepted for publication in a refereed conference or journal between April 1, 2022 - March 31,  2023. Prizes are awarded to the research rather than individuals. Award criteria include:

  1. Scientific merit (significance, originality, non-triviality, correctness, completeness) of a single submitted paper
  2. Effective technical writing (clarity, proper English usage, organization), with some preference in close cases given to  students awarded degrees in 2022-2023

Student Research Posters and Prizes. We seek UMBC CSEE undergraduate and graduate students to present their best research accomplishments from 2022-2023 in posters. Submit name, lab, poster title, and informative abstract in ASCII (at most 350 words)  approved by your research advisor. Prizes ($50 gift certificate each) to the best three posters, voted by professors based on scientific merit and effective presentation, using range voting.

Deadlines & Submission Details 

Electronic submissions will be through the Microsoft Conference Management Toolkit (CMT).

March 29 (12noon):  Faculty talks, student research, and poster submissions due

April 10:  Program, awards, and posters will be announced

Organizers: Karen Lorenz, Dr. Alan T. Sherman, Dr. Roberto Yus, Dr. Rebecca Williams, Dr. Ryan Robucci

Test information curve for the CCA and curves for other validated CIs calculated from 2PL model fit parameters provided in the studies. Compared to other CIs, the CCA gives more information about students who performed above average.

CSEE Professor Alan T. Sherman and colleagues won best paper at the 2023 ACM SIGSCE conference in Toronto on computer science education, from among 474 submissions.  Their research paper, Psychometric Evaluation of the Cybersecurity Curriculum Assessment, validates a concept inventory for cybersecurity that they created.  This inventory, the first of its kind for cybersecurity, provides scientific evidence to evaluate the effectiveness of various approaches to teaching cybersecurity.

The Cybersecurity Curriculum Assessment (CCA) was completed by 193 students from seven colleges and universities. The CCA builds on the group's prior work developing and validating a Cybersecurity Concept Inventory (CCI), which measures students' conceptual understanding of cybersecurity after a first course in the area. The CCA deepens the conceptual complexity and technical depth expectations, assessing conceptual knowledge of students who had completed multiple courses in cybersecurity. The paper reviews the development of the CCA and presents an evaluation of the instrument using Classical Test Theory and Item-Response Theory. The CCA is a difficult assessment, providing reliable measurements of student knowledge and deeper information about high-performing students.

Sherman's coauthors include CSEE Ph.D. student Enis Golaszewski, Dr. Linda Oliva (education), Dr. Geoffrey Herman and Shan Huang (University of Illinois), and Dr. Peter Peterson (University of Minnesota Duluth).

Support for this research was provided in part by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the Department of Defense. Applying their assessment tool, under another NSF grant, Sherman and his group are studying and improving how the Navy and Army Military Academies teach cybersecurity.

The University System of Maryland (USM) Board of Regents honored members of its faculty at institutions across the system as recipients of the 2023 USM Regents’ Faculty Awards. They selected UMBC CSEE Professor Anupam Joshi for a USM Regents' Faculty Award for Excellence In Scholarship or Research. The announcement cited some of his many research accomplishments.

"Dr. Joshi is an accomplished scholar, widely recognized as an international leader in cybersecurity and artificial intelligence. A Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (IEEE), last year he won an IEEE Senior Researcher Award. Earlier this year, he was named a Fellow of the International Cyber Security Center of Excellence, a US-UK-Japan collaborative research organization. Dr. Joshi has published nearly 300 peer-reviewed articles, secured nine U.S. patents, and garnered over $22 million in competitive extramural research funding. In addition, working with industry and government, he helped translate technology created in his lab to two Maryland startups, both founded by African American entrepreneurs."
