Navy Engineering Analytics Program (NEAP)

The Navy Engineering Analytics Program (NEAP) is developing an innovative education and training program in Navy Engineering Analytics for ISU undergraduates to learn:

  • Complex system design analysis
  • Designing and evaluating human-computer interaction (HCI) systems
  • Crisis decision making with uncertainty and multiple objectives
  • Risk assessment and mitigation
  • Modeling and forecasting an uncertain future
  • Data science and machine learning

Joining NEAP will enable ISU undergraduates to obtain analytical skills that they can use to enter into exciting professions in the Navy, the broader defense community, and industry that directly supports the Navy and the Department of Defense.

Skills in this program are very valuable to industries unrelated to defense and security.

Four classes will be offered through NEAP over a span of two years (one class per semester). See here for the proposed set of courses.

A limited number of tuition scholarships are available for engineering students. See more information here

Internship and Research Opportunities are posted here

NEAP is funded by the Office of Naval Research
