  1. STEM2Stern for the Naval Research Enterprise OPENING MINDS • CAPTURING THE FUTURE Dialogue 1 Dr. Sujata Millick (Acting) Director of Research Office of Naval Research 03 September 2009

  2. Projections of Population Demographics Aging S&T workforce Globalization Competitiveness (First-to-market, largest market-share) Best-in-defending…National Security interests Multiple stakeholders Plethora approaches/initiatives Why this Dialogue… COMPLEXITY

  3. STEM and Naval S&T Acquisition Transition New Ideas Requirements Generating Knowledge Physical Laboratory Virtual Laboratory Mobile Laboratory Research Infrastructure University Industry Federal Laboratories Federal Agencies Scientists, Engineers, Researchers…

  4. 15,000 brain trust (predominantly national) works on ONR S&T challenges… The Gap, The Need In 2050, approx. 54% of the U.S. population will be non-white In 2004, approx. 35% of the B.S. in S&E was awarded to non-whites 20 percentage point gap…IF the S&E population make-up is to reflect the makeup of the U.S. population ONR brain trust: universities, laboratories, industry, Navy/Marine Corps organizations

  5. 15,000 brain trust (predominantly national) works on ONR S&T challenges… The Gap, The Need In 2050, approx. 54% of the U.S. population will be non-white In 2004, approx. 35% of the B.S. in S&E was awarded to non-whites Just 3 decades away from this shift... 20 percentage point gap…IF the S&E population make-up is to reflect the makeup of the U.S. population ONR brain trust: universities, laboratories, industry, Navy/Marine Corps organizations

  6. Education and Outreach Nurture pipeline of U.S. S&Es in Naval-relevant disciplines and expand diversity of US S&E researchers & research institutions Naval Labs Academia Industry Presidential Early Career Awards for Scientists and Engineers Research Researchers Young Investigator Program Future Faculty National Naval Responsibilities National Defense Science & Engineering Graduate Program Graduate Education Fellowships Education Science, Mathematics And Research for Transformation Diversity Naval Research Enterprise Intern Program Undergraduate Naval Science Awards Program High School Outreach Science & Engineering Apprentice Program Middle School

  7. Leverage S&T initiatives to ensure warfighting benefits accrue to future sailors We will support Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) education and outreach to inspire tomorrow’s Navy Scientists CNOG 2010 (released 9/2/09) CNOG -- Chief of Naval Operations Guidance

  8. What is the Naval Research Enterprise? Includes stakeholders from ONR, NRL, NWC’s, USNA, NPGS, SYSCOMS,MCU, MCWL, OPNAV, …. Identify the keyelements that will ensure access to, availability of scientists, engineers, and researchers for the NRE Objectives

  9. Open discussion 3 more Dialogues (Oct, Nov, Dec) Summarize Dialogue 1 Seek input for Dialogue 2 “The mind is not a vessel to be filled, but a fire to be ignited." - Plutarch OPENING MINDS • CAPTURING THE FUTURE
