Our students are consummate professionals at every level, our faculty are world-class, and our educationalA programs are relevant, adaptable and of immediate value to the Navy and DOD.

Late last year, an Atlas V rocket launched in Southern California carried with it a small, cube- shaped nanosatellite that SOUTHCOM hopes can support tactical communications in some of the dense jungles within its region. To evaluate the capability, SOUTHCOM turned to NPS students and researchers in our Distributed Information Systems Experimentation, or DISE, group.

The Marine Corps first initiated the E2O program in 2009 with the mission to “analyze, develop and direct the Marine Corps’ energy strat- egy.” The impetus for the initiative was born of the realization that the Marine Corps is using far more energy today than it did in the past. “Over the last 10–15 years, we have had a 250 percent increase in computer usage on the battlefield, and the average Marine infantry bat- talion is using four-times the amount of fuel today than it did in 2001,” Naval Postgraduate School student Lt.
