WISE 2008

Women’s Institute in Summer Enrichment
Sponsored by the Team for Research in Ubiquitous Secure Technology (TRUST)
June 8th through 13th, 2008: Ithaca, New York

The Women's Institute in Summer Enrichment (WISE) is affiliated with the Center for the Team in Research for Ubiquitous Secure Technology (TRUST).

WISE is a residential summer program on the Cornell University campus that brings together graduate students, post-doctoral fellows and professors from all disciplines that are interested in Ubiquitous Secure Technology and the social, political, and economical ramifications that are associated with this technology. Women are strongly encouraged to attend, though all are welcome.

Professors from across the country come to Cornell to teach power courses in several disciplines, including computer science, economics, law, and electrical engineering. The one-week program includes rigorous classes in the morning, and allows participants to explore through hands-on experiments and team-based projects in the afternoons.

The objectives of the TRUST WISE Institute are:

  • To disseminate the most recent results in Cyber-security and privacy;
  • To give enough information to the participants so that they can start a course or a research activity in Cyber-security and privacy;
  • To create a network of interested parties in the area of cyber-security and privacy
