On-campus summer research in security

February 22nd, 2009

Professor Kuperman is looking for students interested in working with him on 2 projects related to computer security this summer.  You would be paid for 8-10 weeks of work, up to 40 hours per week with some flexibility as to scheduling.

One project needs students with a strong C programming background and comfort working in Unix environments.

The second project will be building a custom server to be used as part of labs in future security courses.  A good background in Linux/Unix is needed, and experience setting up custom systems/distributions would be great.

If you are interested in either or both of these projects, or have questions about them, send email to Benjamin.Kuperman@oberlin.edu by Thursday, February 26.
