Find Funding in Science & Engineering: Working with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)
Are you interested in doing research at the leading edge of science and technology? The Defense Sciences Office (DSO) within the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) identifies and pursues high-risk, high-payoff research initiatives across a broad spectrum of science and engineering disciplines and transforms them into important, new game-changing technologies for national security. Current DSO themes include frontiers in math, computation and design, limits of sensing and sensors, complex social systems, and anticipating capabilities for current and future threats.
In this virtual presentation to the BU research community, Dr. Philip Root, acting director of the DSO, will provide an overview of DARPA, how to work with DARPA and the Defense Sciences Office, and the DSO’s current research activities and interests. Faculty will leave the talk with a better understanding of how to share their research with DARPA program managers and the types of research DARPA DSO is interested in supporting.
