These DE short courses are some of the professional development
opportunities now available to the community. DEPS also sponsors a series of short courses that are associated
with the Annual DE Symposium and some other events. Continuing Education Unit (CEU) credits are
offered for completion of DEPS short courses
Currently Scheduled Short Courses
15 November 2010
These courses are being offered in conjunction with the 2010 Annual Directed Energy Symposium,
to be held 15-19 November 2010 in Bethesda, Maryland. Students may register for the
courses without registering for the Conference.
