SEC Industry Impact: Community
The SEC's founding principles include an obligation to improve the whole of the security industry through consulting, partnership with industry and academic institutions, and research. In 2022, the SEC's academic partnerships expanded in new ways.
The SEC launched a scholarship program aimed at supporting and encouraging students of excellence and next-generation leaders at the SEC's partner academic institutions in security, risk, and intelligence - Kennesaw State University, the University of South Carolina's Darla Moore School of Business, and Mercyhurst University.
As part of the internship program started with Mercyhurst University's Ridge College of Intelligence Studies and Applied Sciences, 122 Mercyhurst interns worked on 47 projects for SEC clients, covering data analysis and intelligence studies as well as capstone research and other projects.
