Global Overview

Office of Naval Research (Public Law 588, 1946)

“…plan, foster, and encourage scientific research in

recognition of its paramount importance as related to the

maintenance of future of naval power, and the preservation of

national security…”

Transitioning S&T (Defense Authorization Act, 2001)

“…manage the Navy’s basic, applied, and advanced

research to foster transition from science and

technology to higher levels of research,

development, test, and evaluation.”

Naval Research Laboratory (Appropriations Act, 1916)

“[Conduct] exploratory and research work…necessary

…for the benefit of Government service, including the

construction, equipment, and operation of a laboratory….”

The Serendipitous Nature

of Basic Research

• Progress enabling advanced technology products in information fields is built upon work of a few individuals who decades ago were investigating something called solid state physics

– none of whom probably ever thought about cell phones,

GPS, or iPods with 160,000 books in your pocket and now storage in the Cloud

• iPhone has more computing power than the Apollo spacecraft

• What is next …. Can we predict the breakthroughs a half century hence

ONR-Global

•Develop Partnerships

•Leverage Global S&T Advances

•Avoid Technology Surprise

US Defense Science Board

on Basic Research Jan 2012

• Increasing fraction of world' s basic research is being conducted outside US as part of larger trend toward globalization of science.

• In order to avoid tech surprise, it is important for DoD to be involved in cutting edge of basic research on topics of specific interest, whether cutting edge is in US or overseas

• DoD should increase percentage of basic research funding that is invested internationally from 2.5 to 3 percent to 5 percent over next 2 years

ONR Global History

• 1946 – ONR Branch London Office created to survey, assess, and report on European S&T Activities

• 1974 – ONR Tokyo Office opened to liaise and assess Asian S&T activities

• 1977 – ONR European & Tokyo Offices combined to form International Field Office

• 2003 – ONR Global: merger of Naval Fleet/Force Technology Innovation Office & International Field Office

• 2004 – Branch office in Santiago, Chile, established

• 2005 – Branch office in Singapore established

• 2010 – Branch office in Prague established

ONR Global Mission Statement

Search globe for promising, emerging scientific research and advanced technologies to enable ONR to effectively address current needs of the Fleet/Force and investigate and assess

revolutionary, high-payoff technologies for future Naval missions and capabilities.

ONRG Science Program Tools

Collaborative Science Program (CSP)

– Support non-US workshops and conferences of Naval interest

Visiting Scientist Program (VSP)

– Support travel of non-US scientists to US to socialize new S&T ideas or findings with NRE

Naval International Cooperative Opportunities Programs (NICOP)

– Support insertion of innovative, international S&T into core ONR, NRE, & DoD S&T Programs

Liaison Visits (Not a Grant) – ONRG technical staff visit international

institutions to develop access and discover cutting edge S&T

ONRG provides seedling
