The Naval Postgraduate School’s Joint Interagency Field Experimentation (JIFX) program hosts quarterly collaborative field experimentation events that bring together Department of Defense, U.S. government, industry, academia, and allied partners to evaluate emerging technologies in an operational environment.

JIFX provides NPS faculty and students, private companies, government organizations, and academic partners an opportunity to develop, demonstrate, and evaluate new technologies while working directly with operational users. The program supports rapid technology development through hands-on experimentation, collaboration, and iterative learning.

JIFX 27-1 will take place November 2–5, 2026, at the NPS Field Laboratory at Camp Roberts.
