Emporia State University is celebrating the grand opening of its Cybersecurity Research and Outreach Center this week, and US Senator Jerry Moran is part of the celebration.
Senator Moran will be one of the speakers Friday, along with ESU CyROC Director Leticia Rust and Dean of the School of Business Ed Bashaw.
Activities will be at 2 pm at ESU Cremer Hall fifth floor.
CyROC is the first facility of its kind in Kansas. The initial funding was $1.5 million through the federal government’s fiscal 2022 appropriation bill for the National Institute of Standards and Technology. Senator Moran was a driving force in securing the funds for ESU.
