The Naval Postgraduate School has long been a testing ground for the Navy’s most advanced research. A large portion of the technology that has made our military the most advanced in the world has been developed right on our Monterey campus.
NPS develops cutting edge technologies for numeric meteorological predictive sciences, oceanographic vehicles, and ultra-high complexity computer model simulations for Department of Defense use.
NPS continues to grow in providing cutting edge research for the military and federal government and is supported by government funds, private funding, the benefits of technology transfer and university-corporate relationships. The value of NPS' contribution to Naval research and education is evident in the remarkable growth of its reimbursable research budget from $30 thousand funded by the Office of Naval Research in 1955, to $57 million in 2002 and $66 million executed in 2003.
According to the National Science Foundation’s most recent national R&D Expenditures Survey, the Naval Postgraduate School ranked in the top 25% of institutions in total R&D expenditures. NPS also ranked within the top 30% for national science and engineering (S&E) obligations.
