Abstract
ABSTRACT A proposed multidisciplinary environmental science and engineering competency‐based master's degree program is described herein. The proposed Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) program includes equal coverage of the four main categories of environmental interest (e.g., air quality, water quality, acoustic quality and solid/hazardous waste disposal) with emphasis upon their impact on naval operations. A brief discussion is provided of the cognitive, affective and psychomotor learning domains as functional pillars of the competency‐based program. Illustrative examples of air quality, water quality, acoustic quality and solid/hazardous waste disposal instructional (behavioral) learning objectives are given. A two year course matix is denned with a brief discussion of the mathematics, science, engineering and management elements contained herein. Selected course descriptions and a set of possible educational skill requirements (ESRs) are also provided. Graduates of this proposed program would be able to provide the Navy/DoD with a broad command capability in environmental assessment and control. Graduates would also have the ability to identify potential environmental problems (and their possible solutions) in civilian, government and militay operations.
