Augusta, Georgia, is becoming a primary hub for cybersecurity in the United States, and the area is poised for explosive development.

The second, 165,000-square building of the Center is under construction to be completed in December of 2018.

Augusta University has embarked on an ambitious, multi-year effort to significantly expand its computing, cybersecurity, and data science activities.
