Birute Jurjonas, right, assigned to Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command (SPAWAR) pictured with Naval Sea Cadets at the San Diego Regional SeaPerch Competition at Grossmont College. SeaPerch, sponsored by the Office of Naval Research, is an innovative underwater robotics program that trains teachers to teach their late elementary through high school students how to build ROVs from low-cost kits. Jurjonas was one of several SPAWAR personnel who volunteered as judges, timekeepers and in-water assistants at the event. As the Navy's Information Dominance Systems Command, SPAWAR supports robotics development and strongly encourages all students to explore careers in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields.
