Ryan Klemm ’24, a third-year B.S. in Computer Science major, has been selected as the 2023 Computer Science Departmental Scholar. A stellar student, his journey at Michigan Tech includes numerous achievements.

Klemm is a recipient of the National Science Foundation Scholarship for Service, a leading competitor and officer of the MTU RedTeam, a research assistant in the MTU Security and Privacy Lab, and an instructor for the local middle/high school Husky Cyber Team.

“Ryan is an excellent undergraduate student and he has won a lot of top achievements in national-level cybersecurity, programming, and mathematics competitions,” says Associate Professor Bo Chen, Department of Computer Science.
