Outreach & Community Impact
Our outreach initiatives aim to broaden participation in computing disciplines, promote scientific literacy, and inspire the next generation of technologists and innovators.
INQUIRE Cybersecurity Workshop
Annual Five-Day Intensive Training Program
INQUIRE Cybersecurity Workshop is an annual, intensive five-day training program for IT professionals and related fields, proudly sponsored by the Oklahoma Office of Homeland Security and FEMA. Through a dynamic mix of expert-led sessions, hands-on labs, and interactive discussions, participants explore critical areas such as emerging threats, ransomware prevention, phishing defense, secure network design, identity and access management, quantum-safe cryptography, and incident response strategies. Each day features practical exercises — from Red Team/Blue Team simulations to configuring SIEM tools and running forensic investigations — ensuring attendees leave with actionable skills to protect critical infrastructure and data in today's evolving cyber threat landscape.
Community Engagement & Partnerships
We actively collaborate with schools, community organizations, and industry partners to promote STEM education and diversity in computing. Our partnerships span across Oklahoma and beyond, creating opportunities for underrepresented groups to engage with cutting-edge computing technologies. Through mentorship programs, guest lectures, and hands-on demonstrations, we bridge the gap between academic research and community needs.
