The committee therefore recommends that ONR should adopt a "lead, leverage, and monitor" framework for the strategic programming, prioritization, and integration of NNR-NE investments both within and across the R&D, workforce, and infrastructure pillars (Recommendation 6-1) Read the entire page →

SUMMARY ASSESSMENT AND ADVICE 81 by leading metrics, such as the number of undergraduate students choosing majors in NE and related disciplines, to provide an earlier indication of program successes, opportunities, and challenges. Additional metrics could assist in the evaluation of the NNR-NE portfolio: • Research Potential: The number of graduate students (Ph.D., master's) Read the entire page →
