Information Session, October 30 @ 2:00 p.m. in EEB 248

Sign Up for CSCI 599 – Innovation for Defense Applications, Spring 2020
Graduate and upper-division undergraduate students both welcome!

Innovation for Defense Applications is USC’s class that is part of the Hacking for Defense program sponsored by NSIN.  This class provides students with the opportunity to learn how to work with the Department of Defense (DoD) and Intelligence Community (IC) to address the nation’s emerging threats and security challenges. In this course, teams of 3-5 students from interdisciplinary backgrounds develop minimum viable products (MVPs) and prototypes that match DoD/IC users’ needs by the end of the semester.

Using Lean Startup Methodology, and working closely with their problem sponsors, mentors, and military liaisons, the student teams work together to bring a product or service to market.  Read more about the journey of the ATOMUS team who took this class in the spring of 2019.

Why take this class?

1.  You’ll work on hard, gnarly problems, while contributing to
national service.
2.  You’ll work on real national security issues, with real national
security leaders.
3.  You’ll learn Lean Startup methodology to help you build efficient
and successful startups, and develop skills to solve problems in any
organization.

All nationalities/citizenship are encouraged to apply. Graduate and
upper-division undergraduate students both welcome.
