TheSCADA laboratory we designed and the research findings we present will be either used todevelop new courses or supplement the existing courses in the undergraduate and graduatecurriculum with fairly enough number of hands-on activities. Moreover, our paper highlights thechallenges, limitations and the methodologies in the project to achieve these goals. Thecross-disciplinary design of the lab allows students from various programs with specific goals touse the lab for their studies.Related WorkThe SCADA systems have been target of attacks particularly in the last two decades with theadvancements in technology.

This reviewal process requires exploring use-cases for the programming mechanisms presented as solutions to the security issues discussed. Inaddition to the security modules presented in lectures, students were given a hands-on approachto understanding the concepts through Model-Eliciting Activities (MEAs). MEAs are open-ended, problem-solving activities in which groups of three to four students work to solve realisticcomplex problems in a classroom setting. The semester project related to encryption anddecryption was implemented into the course as an MEA.To assess the effectiveness of incorporating security

Computer occupations play a critical role in STEM.The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projected that about 600,000 or 67% of all new jobs inSTEM between 2018 and 2028 would be in computing. Average annual openings in computeroccupations during the decade were projected to be about 450,000 [2]. Although the number ofstudents who graduated with a bachelor's degree in computer and information sciences in 2016was more than 70,000
