6) Northrop Grumman

Northrop’s HBCU Invitational has become a high-yield event for technical and business talent—students network, attend sessions, and often interview on the spot for internships and new-grad roles. Pair that with the company’s robust summer internship program and you get a clear route into aerospace, defense, cyber, and space systems.
Programs to watch: HBCU Invitational (events + interviewing), Internships at Northrop Grumman, Students & Entry-Level Careers.
