Overview

Murray State University received funding in 1998 for a Program of Distinction in telecommunications, using resources made available through the Regional University Excellence Trust fund. Specifically, a Center for Telecommunications Systems Management (CTSM) was established through which the University is to address regional and national public and private sector needs. As technology has evolved, so has Murray State's approach to technology education. Currently, CTSM has changed its name to the Cyber Education and Research Center, and its new focus is to include all aspects of cyber education, outreach, development, and research for Murray State University's cybersecurity-related programs.
