Mentorship
Bryce has encouraged "thousands of middle and high school students" to become computer scientists through the University of North Texas's Bug Catcher and Bug Wars competitions, in which entrants compete to find bugs in software.
In 2015 the National Center for Women & Information Technology gave Bryce their Undergraduate Research Mentoring Award. In 2018 Tech Titans, a Texas trade organization, gave her their University Tech Titan of the Future Award for this work.
