Jonathan Page joins NAME faculty

Jonathan Page has joined the faculty as Professor of Engineering Practice in Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering beginning July 1, 2023. He will be teaching NA 331 Marine Power and Energy I in the fall semester. 

Commander Page is closing out a Naval career that includes tours designing, acquiring, building, delivering, maintaining, and operating ships of various classes, including the lead ships of the Zumwalt (DDG 1000) and Lewis B Puller (ESB 3) classes. He was most recently a Naval Officer serving as the Future Ships Requirements Officer on the staff of the Chief of Naval Operations in Washington, DC. In April 2022, he earned a Ph.D. in Design Engineering from MIT that leveraged his position as the Deputy Ship Design Manager for the next-generation destroyer, DDG(X). The experience allowed him to exercise his research interests, including understanding emergent properties like flexibility, real options analysis, team organization, and decision management with Set-Based Design on a largescale project.
