Career Growth Opportunities for Scientists and Engineers

Abstract

The single most critical determinant of the success of the Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) is the appropriate selection, development, and retention of highly trained Scientists and Engineers. By acknowledging that people have individual interests, abilities, styles, and needs, the NSWC understands the importance of being responsive to the career aspirations of these key personnel. The purpose of this pamphlet is to provide an overview of the opportunities for career growth for Scientists and Engineers at the NSWC, Dahlgren, Virginia. Management is committed to providing employees with challenging and varied developmental assignments that will stimulate their intellectual and experiential growth. Through an aggressive educational and training program and with appropriate recognition and rewards for technical accomplishments, the NSWC will strive to motivate its Scientists and Engineers to advance as far as their capabilities and interests will take them. Whatever career option these employees choose, the opportunities are there for them to have a significant impact on the business and future direction of the NSWC and the Navy. Career focus is a concept that attempts to distinguish between areas of technical leadership. The Center provides opportunities for growth in three career focus areas: Science and Engineering, Project and Program Management, and Line Management.
