Northrop Grumman’s Electronic Systems sector recently donated $30,000 to establish the Northrop Grumman Scholarship at UMBC. Awards of $10,000 will be made to three students who are U.S. citizens studying Computer and Electrical Engineering, which will serve a goal of increasing the quantity of Americans graduating with undergraduate and graduate degrees in those fields. Initial awards will be provided to high-performing sophomores and juniors, who may be candidates for UMBC’s accelerated BS/MS program.

Northrop Grumman is a leading global security company providing innovative systems, products and solutions in unmanned systems, cyber, C4ISR, and logistics and modernization to government and commercial customers worldwide. The scholarship recipients will be eligible for summer internship positions at Northrop Grumman.

“Northrop Grumman is proud to support education programs that will develop tomorrow’s leaders in computer science and engineering. I am very pleased Northrop Grumman is partnering with UMBC,” says Ted Imes, Sector Director, Talent Acquisition at Northrop Grumman Corporation.

UMBC thanks Northrop Grumman for their continuing commitment to our students.
