AFCEA West: AI is America’s ‘Sputnik Moment,’ Defense Academic Says
The Naval Postgraduate School’s recent partnership with the Defense Innovation Unit formalizes NPS’ focus on fostering innovation in the school’s student body.
NPS President Ann Rondeau said last week that the school not only supports innovation, but lays the foundation for creative thinking, collaboration and finding real-world solutions to support the Defense Department.
During AFCEA West in San Diego, California, Rondeau described NPS as a hub for “warrior scholars” – experienced military, international, civilian government and industry professionals – who work together to address real challenges facing DOD. She added that the school’s curriculum is also continuously updated based on feedback, ensuring relevance and responsiveness to evolving needs like AI, quantum and other emerging technology.
