Deliberate Transformation of Ground Systems
The NDIA Michigan Chapter presents the 17th Annual Ground Vehicle Systems Engineering & Technology Symposium (GVSETS) & Modernization Update! GVSETS provides the opportunity for the Ground Systems community to network and share technical research and innovations while discussing capability gaps and modernization needs. With global threats becoming more aggressive and complex, our nation must implement solutions to ensure our Warfighters have the right tools and solutions for current and future conflicts.
To start, scientists and engineers from government, academia and industry are invited to submit papers for the GVSETS Technical Sessions. The Technical Sessions are executed in conjunction with the Engineering Society of Detroit (ESD), with paper publication support delivered by SAE Government Technologies.
