Dakota State University students are following in their parents’ footsteps.

Joëlle Malacko and Mikaila Fluth are both technology majors at Dakota State. Both have parents who work in cyber security, and this inspired them to enter the field. To keep them moving into that career path, they both recently received a $5,000 scholarship from Peraton. 

Peraton is a national security company that drives missions of consequence spanning the globe and extending to the farthest reaches of the galaxy. They have been providing Dakota State students with scholarships since 2021.
