Service Chiefs Fellow

• Jan 2016 - Mar 2016

The DARPA Service Chiefs’ Fellows Program (SCFP) was established to immerse outstanding military officers and Government civilians into imaginative and innovative, fast-paced science and technology research. Fellows from each Service have the opportunity to dive deeply into specific technology development in areas of interest to them and to their respective Service, as well as a chance to understand the breadth of DARPA research across the spectrum of technology development. Exposure to the innovation process allows Fellows to return to the field with an appreciation for the Agency’s role in supporting DoD missions by preventing and creating strategic surprise on short-and long-term scales. Upon completion of their assignment to SCFP, Fellows create an effective liaison between DARPA and the Services due in large part to the close relationships forged during the program and the experiential understanding of DARPA's technology development process.
