Paul Wang is a Professor and Chair of Computer Science at Morgan State University. He also holds a joint faculty position at University of Maryland, College Park. Paul is a LINK Fellow, Fellow of Naitonal Quantum Lab, Board Member of CyberVets, and has held positions as the TSYS Endowed Chair in Cybersecurity by a $5 million endorsement, Director of Center for Security Studies with more than 3,000 cyber students, and Chief Information and Technology Officer (CIO/CTO) of the National Biomedical Research Foundation. He has been a consultant to many companies and serveing on multiple boards and government and private sector technology committees. Paul was directly involved in drafting of the National Initiatives of Cybersecurity Education (NICE) framework. His research areas are quantum crypto, secure architecture, AI, IoT/CPS, and video indexing.

In teaching, one of his students appeared in Time Magazine for doing his class project which he continued to pursue and later became an entrepreneur. Paul has extensive experiences working with students especially underrepresented minorities and track records in mentoring students to excel in learning and entering into the workplace.

In addition to books, refereed publications, conference speakers and numeral grant activities including recent grants from NSF, NSA, Apple, and Microsoft, Paul has four patents; three of them have been licensed to the industry. Paul Wang received his Ph.D. under Dr. Robert Ledley, the inventor of body CT scanner in 2004. He completed his post-doc studies at MIT in Quantum Computing following a renowned scholar Peter Shor and in Data Science/AI at University of Cambridge.
