The proposed excellence course will take advantage of the extremely solid experience of Dr. Valey developed 15 years activity as leader of the submarine network at Google. PhD Course will provide a deep dive into submarine networks, cable ships, marine equipment in addition to topics of optical transmission studied during regular electrical engineering program. The lectures also review cable network topologies management and powering of submarine cables. A special attention will be paid to environmental surveillance through advance optical sensing. We will review the latest development in state of polarization sensing and optical interferometry. Conversion of submarine cables into dual polarization coherent array of sensor provides a unique opportunity to enable environmental sensing in deep oceans, where scientific instruments are sporadic. Tsunami monitoring and early warning based on live detection of tsunami wave in the open ocean is one attractive target of future research. Also earthquake early warning will be demonstrated and data analysis techniques will be evaluated during the course. Lecture course will include active participation in the special discussion sessions. We will also provide several special chapters dedicated to industrial practices : submarine system planning, system deployment, hybrid subsea and energy cables. If time permits, lectures on submerged plant equipment, cable and fiber will be delivered
