Delivering Capability

The NPS Foundation has moved swiftly to support the infrastructure, programming and innovation culture for the AI ecosystem at NPS. The Naval Postgraduate School’s partnership with NVIDIA—plus the ecosystem that NVIDIA brings with them—is both the foundation and the template for how the Naval Innovation Center will work. The initiatives the Foundation supports will enhance curricula, increase collaborative work with industry partners and DOD sponsors, and support the DOD’s push for faster AI implementation in support of warfighting. The NPS Foundation is working closely with NPS to support partnerships that will enhance NPS’ mission effectiveness and increase the impact of research that is fully informed and contributes to warfighting.
