It is my distinct pleasure to invite you to attend the 2017 Submarine Technology Symposium (STS) to
be held 9 to 11 May 2017, at The Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory (JHU/APL) in Laurel, Maryland.
STS is jointly sponsored by JHU/APL and the Naval Submarine League, with approval by Commander Submarine Forces. This year's symposium will provide a classified forum for examining current,
emerging, and future technologies to aid the Undersea Warfare Community and to enhance the cur-rent and future availability and operational performance of our submarines and undersea systems.
The theme for this year’s symposium is Delivering a Spectrum of Effects from Under the Sea. The forum will include linkages to critical elements of the Commander’s Intent for the United States Submarine Force and Supporting Organizations as presented by Submarine Force leadership,
who will be serving as keynote speakers. The introductory remarks for each session will be presented by a Fleet representative who will tie that session’s theme to the Undersea force’s operations and criti-cal challenges. The sessions that comprise this year’s symposium have been designed to focus on
Seabed Warfare; Vital Intelligence; Undersea Based Deterrence; Sea Control; and Effects Ashore.
As in the past, our goal is to stimulate the symposium audience to respond to the Submarine Force’s
existing, emerging and future requirements. Additional details concerning the Symposium agenda, technical sessions, local accommodations and
points of contact are provided at the STS website. Secure registration and payment for the Symposi-um may be accomplished on-line by clicking on the Register button.
Seating is limited in accordance with local fire and safety regulations. The organizers reserve the right to terminate the registration process at any time if the facility’s capacity is exceeded. Symposium at-tendees must be U.S. citizens and possess a DoD SECRET clearance.
I look forward to your participation in this year’s Symposium.
Sincerely yours,
