AI Summary

This bill requires the Secretary of Defense to conduct a feasibility study on establishing a designated central program office within the Department of Defense (DoD) to oversee all academic engagement programs focused on creating cyber talent across the Department. The study would examine how such an office would manage funding and interact with university consortia, the unique aspects of cyber programs compared to other STEM programs, and whether the creation of the office would result in net savings for the DoD. If the Secretary determines that such an office should be established, they must do so within 180 days and provide rules and regulations for its implementation. The bill also requires the Secretary to submit a comprehensive report updating previous reports on DoD cyber education and recruitment programs.
