Northrop Grumman awarded $50,000 in scholarships last week to high school students on the winning teams of the CyberPatriot IX National Finals Competition.
Winners were announced during the CyberPatriot IX Awards Banquet, April 5, at the Hyatt Regency, Baltimore Inner Harbor, in Baltimore, Md., following an intensive daylong competition, April 4.
The Northrop Grumman Foundation is the presenting sponsor of CyberPatriot, the National Youth Cyber Education program created by the Air Force Association.
“CyberPatriot remains one of the most relevant STEM competitions of our day,” said Sandra Evers-Manly, vice president, global corporate responsibility and president of the Northrop Grumman Foundation. “We couldn’t be more thrilled with its growth and the opportunity it’s given to thousands of students to pursue this critically important STEM path. The program’s focus on diversity is evident in the growing number of young women and minorities participating.”
