The Department of Energy (DOE) leverages the technical expertise of its national laboratories to develop unique scenarios and facilitate participation by students from across the United States. Currently in its ninth iteration, the CyberForce Competition works to increase 1) hands-on cyber education to college students and professionals, 2) awareness of the nexus between critical infrastructure and cybersecurity,  and  3)  basic  understanding  of  cybersecurity  within  a  real  world scenario.

This year, UMBC's CyberDawgs will be attending this national intercollegiate cyber competition at the Q Center in St. Charles, Illinois.
