The Asian Office of Aerospace Research and Development (AOARD) is the International Office of the Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR), the Basic Research Technology Directorate of the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) located in Tokyo, Japan. Dr. Tony Kim is currently an International Program Officer (IPO) in AFRL / AFOSR/ AOARD. He has been with the US Air Force (USAF) for over 37 years now holding various positions from Technical Advisor to Branch Chief and Program Manager.

Part of AOARD’s mission is to “Find and Fund” innovative basic and applied research, and advanced technology development. The goal is to build relationships and facilitate communication and collaboration, especially with Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AOFSR)- related research, between AFRL scientists, engineers, and experts with their counterparts among countries in East Asia and West Pacific.

As a vital component of AFRL, AFOSR’s mission is to support Air Force goals of control and maximum utilization of air, space, and cyberspace. The AFOSR International Office works to identify priority areas and mechanisms for research exchange. They also conduct outreach on behalf of AFRL and the USAF’s greater research enterprise.

Dr. Tony Kim will present USAF’s strategic programs and other opportunities that his agencies can offer. He will also explain the overview of AOARD and the grant process.
