Before Â鶹ԭ´´ football takes on North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University for the military game on Saturday, here’s a look at Knight Nation’s longstanding partnerships with U.S. Armed Forces.

The program provides tuition, fees, a monthly stipend and research opportunities for students pursuing doctoral degrees in areas of military importance.

The scholarship includes an annual stipend, internship, mentorship and employment with the Department of Defense after graduation.

After developing more than 90 U.S. patents and several tech companies, Jason Eichenholz ’95MS ’98PhD has launched a personal endeavor that could make the most meaningful impact of all.

Â鶹ԭ´´ joins the Systems Engineering Research Center, a University Affiliated Research Center consortium at the Stevens Institute of Technology, to leverage U.S. Department of Defense funding for impactful research.

The tour included visits with the Institute for Simulation and Training, the College of Optics and Photonics and the Center of Excellence in Hypersonic and Space Propulsion.

ZuLeris Interactive, founded in 2023 by Â鶹ԭ´´ students Zack Zuniga and Liam Etan ’24, is developing virtual training environments for electromagnetic defense scenarios.

Â鶹ԭ´´ and the University of South Florida facilitated a two-day symposium where faculty from Florida universities and U.S. Department of Defense research and development officers collaborated on advancing critical technologies.

Advanced hypersonic propulsion systems are a national priority and are essential to maintaining U.S. national defense as global technological advancements continue to evolve.
