eCYBERMISSION

eCYBERMISSION is a free, virtual Army Educational Outreach Program competition for grades 6–9. Teams of two to four students, guided by an adult advisor, identify a problem in their community and either investigate it with scientific practices or design an engineering solution. Teams document the problem, evidence, process, results, and proposed impact and can work with volunteer STEM mentors. State, regional, and national recognition includes U.S. savings bonds; in 2025 the four national-winning teams earned a combined $130,000 in bonds at maturity, within more than $1.6 million awarded to top teams that cycle.
