The Naval Research Program (NRP) will host Naval Research Working Group (NRWG) 23, April 18-20, 2023. This activity serves as a forum to communicate and recommend topics for NPS research. This is an excellent annual opportunity to effectively leverage NPS faculty expertise and student operational experience as valuable research assets.

All Research Sponsors, NPS faculty and students are invited and encouraged to participate.

During the main event Topic Sponsor Representatives will be assigned a trade show booth in the NPS McNitt Ballroom where they will be able to discuss research opportunities. NPS faculty and students are invited to meet with sponsors during the tradeshow and/or to schedule a Breakout Session to discuss topics and begin scoping research to form an Initial Research Estimate Form (IREF). Engagement Sessions will provide Topic Sponsors, faculty and students additional small group opportunities to present and discuss research opportunities. There will also be key institutional priorities focused Moderated Panel Sessions, comprised of expert Topic Sponsors, faculty, and/or students. NPS faculty will host a selection of NPS Lab Tours and participate in a Faculty Research Poster Session and Social to provide sponsors a better understanding of the wide range of research capabilities at NPS.
