Cyber Cup
The Duke Cyber Cup is an annual cybersecurity policy simulation hosted by Duke University’s Sanford School of Public Policy. The Cyber Cup is open to both undergraduate and graduate students, where, in teams, students respond to a hypothetical cyber crisis with real-world policy implications. The team will analyze the scenario, draft policy memos, and deliver briefings before expert judges from government, academia, and industry. The Cyber Cup offers a unique opportunity to engage with the complex intersection of technology, law, and public policy.
Cybersecurity Leadership Program
Successful private and public sector leaders need cutting-edge knowledge and training to meet tomorrow’s cybersecurity challenges.
The Cybersecurity Leadership Program at Duke University, a combined effort of the Pratt School of Engineering, Sanford School of Public Policy, Department of Computer Science, and Duke Law School brings together private sector leaders from various sectors and government officials for an intensive three-day program. Participants will have the chance to learn from Duke scholars in policy, law, engineering, business, and computer science, as well as from leading industry and government experts.
