Charles (Chas) Frick is a system applications engineer within the Aerospace and Defense Group in Greensboro, North Carolina. Prior to ADI, Chas received two Bachelor of Science degrees in robotics and electrical engineering from Worcester Polytechnic Institute in 2016. Since joining ADI in 2016, he has worked on all manner of internal and external customer projects touching areas of PCB design, embedded C code, MATLAB GUIs, Python test automation, motor control and more. Outside of work, Chas can most likely be found either working on his Jeep Wrangler JLR in the garage or out offroading (probably covered in mud) at Uwharrie National Forest with his wife and fur baby pitbull “Atlas.”<\/p>\n

Session: Antennas to Bits: System Apps Does It All<\/h2>\n

The aerospace and defense industry is pushing for increased performance, decreased costs and quicker time to market, and companies are forced to do more with less resources. RADAR systems are no exception, with customers wanting to track more targets, improve sensitivity and range, all while they work with fewer specialized engineers. My focus as a systems applications engineer for Analog Devices is to document, prototype and create collateral to facilitate customer projects in this space so customers can overcome personal cuts to deliver next generation products. In this presentation, learn about cutting edge RADAR systems, life as a systems applications engineer and hear a few nuggets of career wisdom along the way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Session: Federal Policies, Programs and Funding Opportunities in Engineering Policy<\/h2>\n

The federal research\u00a0agencies offer many funding opportunities and programs that directly advance the interests of the engineering community and broader science, technology, engineering and mathematics community.\u00a0 Through these programs, university faculty receive grant funding, small and medium businesses are able to partner with the government on technology development projects, international standards are developed, and the US is able to work and research at the cutting edge of technological innovation.\u00a0 From AI and quantum to cybersecurity and\u00a0nuclear power, Congress plays a role in providing federal support for research programs.\u00a0 Given the wide variety of issues faced by Congressional staff each day, IEEE-USA works to develop relationships with the House Science, Space and Technology Committee; House Energy and Commerce Committee; House and Senate Armed Services Committees; Senate Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committees; Small Business Committees, and House and Senate Appropriations Committees.\u00a0 We do so by taking ideas from our policy committees and holding conversations with policymakers to educate them about technical issues.\u00a0 In this interactive session, I will provide an overview of some of the issues IEEE-USA\u00a0is engaged in from improving defense funding for basic research programs, strengthening the electric grid, supporting NIST’s technology transfer initiatives, to working with NASA and the State Department on international partnerships in space and improving policies for busin<\/span>esses to collaborate with the federal agencies focused on space.\u00a0 Participants will be able to ask questions about various policy topics but also learn about the process we engage in to make\u00a0changes to help engineers throughout the US.\u00a0 It will be a session that\u00a0provides tools to conference\u00a0participants so they can engage with their congressional representatives.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
