The School of Systems and Enterprises at Stevens Institute of Technology has embarked on a partnership with the Armament Research, Development and Engineering Center (ARDEC) to develop outstanding employees with research and development skills and experience in System Engineering through a yearlong Fellowship program. Headquartered at Picatinny, NJ, ARDEC is the Army's principal researcher, developer and sustainer of current and future armament and munitions systems.
All research activity conducted through the Fellowship is directly related to accomplishing ARDEC’s mission, which is to improve current systems, develop new ones, maintain a strong armament technology base in government, industry and academia, and provide technical support to the soldier in the field. Research activity will be coordinated with ARDEC Systems Engineering Directorate and Stevens Institute of Technology’s School of Systems and Enterprises.
The first ARDEC Fellowship has been awarded to Deputy Product Manager Matt Cilli, who will be conducting advanced research in Decision Analysis and Resolution, a critical process area in the successful management and execution of DoD armament and weapons programs. For those interested in applying to the Fellowship for the 2009 award, the application deadline is November 1, 2008.
