Engineering, Materials, and Physical Sciences (Code 33)

This department is comprised of four divisions and a ship demonstration office: Physical Sciences Science & Technology; Materials Science & Technology; Mechanics and Energy Conversion Science & Technology; Ship Hull, Mechanical, Electrical Systems Science & Technology; and Navy Science & Technology Ship Office. The four divisions contribute to naval strengths in the areas of: chemistry; physics; structural & functional materials; structural, solid, & fluid mechanics; propulsion; energetics; and hull, mechanical, & electrical systems. Ideas and techniques developed in these areas are applied to surface ship, submarine, and undersea payload systems to improve naval warfighting effectiveness and to provide opportunities for environmental amelioration in all aspects of Fleet operations. The Navy Science and Technology Ship Office provides a focal point for system level technology demonstration to induce revolutions in design, construction and operation of Naval ships through early technology transfer to the acquisition or commercial communities.
