Summary	The proposed funding provides direct support between Curriculum Sponsor (PEO-IWS), curriculum students, faculty and their research. The proposed funding is provided for sponsorship of the NPS Combat Systems Science and Engineering (CSS&E) Curriculum. Participants will work directly with the faculty in the study of missile systems as well as student thesis research. This curriculum includes topics that are of direct interest and have application to PEO IWS including Theater Air Missile Defense, Radar Missile design, and advanced sensors, and improvements to better prepare the student in future air and surface threats. PEO IWS recognizes the need to participate directly with the faculty in the study of military systems and in curriculum development, educational upgrades, and student thesis research. PEO IWS also recognizes the importance of directly linking the curriculum students to the programs managed by PEO IWS. Central funding at the (Physics) department level is requested in order to enable better coordination with individual research projects and to initiate efforts that further the science and technology goals of PEO IWS.
