THE OFFICE OF NAVAL RESEARCH GLOBAL
Abstract
Description: This PE supports the Office of Naval Research (ONR) Global mission to search the globe for emerging scientific research and advanced technologies to enable ONR and the Naval Research and Development Establishment (NR&DE) to effectively address the current needs of the Naval Fleet/Forces (F/F), and discover and assess revolutionary, high-payoff technologies for future Naval missions and capabilities. Within this Global mission, funding for the ONR Global Science Advisor Program ensures the F/F help shape the DON investment in science and technology (S&T), develops teaming relationships to rapidly demonstrate and transition technology, supports development of technology-based capability options for Naval Forces, and enables warfighting innovations based on technical and conceptual possibilities. Science Advisors provide insight into issues associated with Naval Warfighting Capabilities that influence S&T program decision making. The program develops leaders among civilian scientists and engineers in the NR&DE. Upon completion of their tours, Science Advisors return to the NR&DE with firsthand knowledge of the how the SN/USMC conduct business, operational warfighting issues, and strategic decision making. The ONR Global Science Advisor Program enables continuous communication and collaboration between the warfighters, the technical community, and strategic development commands.
