Victoria Lentz ’15 Wins HP/SWISS Cybersecurity Scholarship
Earlier this year HP and the Scholarship for Women Studying Information Security (SWSIS) selected UMBC undergraduate Victoria Lentz (Computer Science, 2015) and ten other female cybersecurity students from across the U.S. to receive scholarships.
Lentz was in the first cohort of students to be accepted into the UMBC Cyber Scholars Program, which began in Fall 2013. The program prides itself on influencing minorities and women to become involved in the cyber security and computing industries.
With particular interests in malware and digital forensics, Lentz plans to work in the cybersecurity industry after finishing her undergraduate education to gain experience before returning to school for a Master’s degree.
More from Lentz appears in Technically Baltimore.
