NASEC 2011
Naval Academy Science and Engineering Conference
6 - 9 November 2011
The U.S. Naval Academy, a leading institution of higher education with strong programs and emphases in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM), will host an annual conference to bring policy makers and science advisors together with university faculty and students to meet and discuss significant science and engineering issues and challenges.
The conference provides a forum to bring together the nation's future Navy and Marine Corps officers with their peers from other colleges and universities, both civilian and military, from across the country.
The conference begins on Sunday, Nov 6th, with an information session, followed by dinner and a social gathering.
The conference has three themes, which are listed below. On the first full day of the conference, Monday, Nov 7th, subject matter experts will present their views on the current state of our understanding in the three conference themes and point us to some of the challenges and open problems we face in each area. Following these presentations, the student participants will select a theme and spend the remainder of the conference in discussions and research on the challenges presented.
