Cyber Institute @ RIC

RIC is on the move…which we celebrated today at the Rhode Island State House! ❤️💛 Go, Anchors! ⚓️

Sonya is a Hope Scholarship recipient and will be one of the first students to earn a degree in AI from @RICNews. My Affordability for All agenda would make the Hope Scholarship permanent so more students can pursue a degree that leads to good-paying, in-demand jobs.

Thank you @GovDanMcKee for making college accessible to more RIers by making the Hope Scholarship permanent! A RIC degree delivers real return on investment for students & students who benefit from this scholarship will deliver real return on investment for our state! #RISOTS

Sonya Cheteyan is a senior at Rhode Island College and part of our 1st graduating class of artificial intelligence majors! Tonight, she's at @GovDanMcKee's State of the State address to celebrate her success using AI to assist in medical imaging and help care for Rhode Islanders.

I want to make sure more Rhode Island students can afford to go to college. That’s why, as part of my Affordability for All agenda, I’m making the Hope Scholarship at @RICNews permanent for every qualifying student—no matter their income. #RISOTS

In a new op-ed for @CyberScoopNews, @JimLangevin and fellow @CyberSolarium alum Mark Montgomery call on Congress to bolster @CISAgov, address the cyber workforce crisis, encourage public-private collaboration and rebuild our cyber diplomatic capacity. 🔗: cyberscoop.com/us-cyber-defen…

We miss you, Anchors, and hope everyone is having a wonderful start to 2026! ❄️

The Institute wishes you health, happiness and a strong cybersecurity posture in 2026! If upgrading your organization's cyber skills is on your list of New Year's resolutions, let us help! Reach out at cyberinstitute@ric.edu to book time in our world-class cyber range.

We’re preparing Rhode Islanders for good-paying jobs in growing industries. This year, the @CyberInst_RI thrived—enrollment is up, it earned the National Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense designation, and students now train in its new state-of-the-art cyber range.

In partnership with @SkillsforRI and @springpod, Dr. Tim Henry created a Master Class-style course that explores the future of AI in business, helping students understand how AI and machine learning skills can translate into a meaningful career. 🔗: springpod.com/subject-spotli…

For our students, faculty and community members — support is available as we navigate this difficult time together.

Our capital city experienced an unthinkable tragedy today. Our hearts are with the people of Providence and all those impacted. A shelter in place remains in effect for the greater @BrownUniversity area. We’re making every resource available as an active investigation continues.
