The Office of Naval Research (ONR) today announces the first class of 12 winners in its inaugural Chief of Naval Research (CNR) Fellows program.

TechSolutions has just celebrated its 1000th request for a technology-driven solution identified by the men and women who need it most – Sailors and Marines on the frontlines of the mission. “Necessity is the mother of invention, which is why it’s so important to deliver what our warfighters need when they need it – not five to ten years later, but as soon as possible,” said Capt. Andy Berner, commanding officer of the Office of Naval Research (ONR) Global, which oversees TechSolutions. “When a viable request comes in, TechSolutions works to put that technology into the hands of our Sailors and Marines within months while other procurement requests are still working their way through red tape.” TechSolutions received its 1000th request on Jan. 19. Jason Payne, director of TechSolutions, said they are looking forward to celebrating the next milestone, number 1500, which he hopes comes in sooner than the first 500 requests since warfighters can now contact TechSolutions directly by phone, email, Teams, or through the ONR mobile app.

The Office of Naval Research (ONR) is committed to identifying and attracting young scientists in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM).

The Office of Naval Research offers science fairs, summer research internships and fellowships at naval labs, graduate fellows and more for students pursuing interests in the science, technology, engineering and mathematics disciplines.

The Science, Mathematics and Research for Transformation (SMART) Scholarship for Service Program has been established by the Department of Defense (DoD) to support undergraduate and graduate students pursuing degrees in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) disciplines.

The Office of Naval Research (ONR) sponsors research in multiple research areas. Key research initiatives include core basic and applied research programs executed by ONR Program Officers, research performed at naval laboratories, and additional specialized initiatives (university research initiatives and the Young Investigator Program).
