Jan. 28 Transition to Virtual Operations, Campus Closed

Bowie State University will be transitioning to virtual operations for all classes and office operations on Wednesday, January 28, 2026. The campus will be closed to all non-essential personnel, and all campus activities are canceled. All buildings except residence halls will be closed. Essential personnel should report on time. This is due to the extended time required to clear the extensive snow and ice accumulation on campus. University crews are making every effort to resume campus operations, as a safe return to in-person learning and work remains our top priority. Only essential personnel and residential students are permitted access to the campus on Jan. 28. For more information, please visit BowieState.edu/weather.

Research Experience for Undergraduates in Cybersecurity

Guy-Alain Amoussou, PhD; PI, Associate Provost, Division of Academic Academic Affairs & Provost

The Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) in Cybersecurity, a project of the Summer Undergraduate Research Institute (SURI), is a nine-week program where students work collaboratively and engage with faculty members in research teams. Student participants learn how to use the most current cyberinfrastructure tools with individually designed training sessions targeted to their specific degree of preparation. Each student receives a stipend up to $5,400. A funding allocation is also available to support each proposed project.

Note that only US citizens or permanent residents are eligible for the National Science Foundation REU program.
