A research and technology division of
The Johns Hopkins University, located halfway between Washington
and Baltimore in Laurel, Maryland (see
map), APL supports the Department of Defense and other government
agencies through innovative applied research, technology development,
and problem solving. The Laboratory maintains specialized research
and test facilities, employs approximately 3,300 staff, and receives
more than $590 million of annual funding.
APL's interdisciplinary teams of physicists,
engineers, and mathematicians have been successfully applying military
and space-derived expertise to solve problems in transportation,
biomedical engineering, health care, the environment, and other
fields for over 60 years.
Many of APL's hundreds of proven and emerging
technologies present opportunities for transfer to the private
sector to develop new and improved products. (Search
