Student Workshop
Education is vital to the Directed Energy community. Fostering the professional growth of current workers in the field and
increasing the number of young, new members in the community are important DEPS educational goals. This was the twentieth
Workshop in a series of DE Student Workshops to advance these goals. The
Workshops consider current and future Directed Energy education programs around the country. Support for the Workshop was provided
by the Directed Energy Joint Transition Office and by DEPS.
The scope of the Workshop included:
- Graduate/post-graduate studies and technical vocational training
- Professional continuing education
- Student motivators (scholarships, fellowships, recognitions)
- Summer internship programs
- Curriculum development
Additionally, the Student Workshop offered a sampling of the work being pursued
by students, especially those supported by JTO and ONR internships or scholarships.
The Workshop was held in parallel with sessions of the
2021 Annual Directed Energy Science and Technology Symposium.
Proceedings of the Workshop were included in the unclassified Symposium proceedings. Proceedings from
previous Workshops are available through the DEPS online store.
Registration
Registration for the Workshop is closed.
Call for Papers
Contributions were solicited for inclusion in the technical program of the Workshop. Contributions were unclassified and suitable for public release, with abstracts being submitted by 26 February 2021.
We intend for the Student Workshop session to be a low threat environment, offering the speaker an opportunity to gain technical
presentation experience, and, of course, to present his/her interesting work.
