The University of Arizona is a Center of Academic Excellence in Cybersecurity.

The National Security Agency has named the University of Arizona as a Center of Academic Excellence in Cybersecurity, with designations for Cyber Defense (CAE-CD), Cyber Operations (CAE-CO), Research (CAE-R) and, most recently, Artificial Intelligence (CAE-CyberAI)—one of very few institutions that hold all four designations.
