-STATUTE-

(a) Authority for Admission. - The Secretary of the Navy may

permit eligible defense industry employees to receive instruction

at the Naval Postgraduate School in accordance with this section.

Any such defense industry employee may only be enrolled in, and may

only be provided instruction in, a program leading to a master's

degree in a curriculum related to defense product development. No

more than 10 such defense industry employees may be enrolled at any

one time. Upon successful completion of the course of instruction

in which enrolled, any such defense industry employee may be

awarded an appropriate degree under section 7048 of this title.

(b) Eligible Defense Industry Employees. - For purposes of this

section, an eligible defense industry employee is an individual

employed by a private firm that is engaged in providing to the

Department of Defense significant and substantial defense-related

systems, products, or services. A defense industry employee

admitted for instruction at the school remains eligible for such

instruction only so long as that person remains employed by the

same firm.

(c) Annual Certification by the Secretary of the Navy. - Defense

industry employees may receive instruction at the school during any

academic year only if, before the start of that academic year, the

Secretary of the Navy determines, and certifies to the Committee on

Armed Services of the Senate and the Committee on Armed Services of

the House of Representatives, that providing instruction to defense

industry employees under this section during that year -

(1) will further the military mission of the school;

(2) will enhance the ability of the Department of Defense and

defense-oriented private sector contractors engaged in the design

and development of defense systems to reduce the product and

project lead times required to bring such systems to initial

operational capability; and

(3) will be done on a space-available basis and not require an

increase in the size of the faculty of the school, an increase in

the course offerings of the school, or an increase in the

laboratory facilities or other infrastructure of the school.

(d) Program Requirements. - The Secretary of the Navy shall

ensure that -

(1) the curriculum for the defense product development program

in which defense industry employees may be enrolled under this

section is not readily available through other schools and

concentrates on defense product development functions that are

conducted by military organizations and defense contractors

working in close cooperation; and

(2) the course offerings at the school continue to be

determined solely by the needs of the Department of Defense.

(e) Tuition. - The Superintendent of the school shall charge

tuition for students enrolled under this section at a rate not less

than the rate charged for employees of the United States outside

the Department of the Navy.

(f) Standards of Conduct. - While receiving instruction at the

school, students enrolled under this section, to the extent

practicable, are subject to the same regulations governing academic

performance, attendance, norms of behavior, and enrollment as apply

to Government civilian employees receiving instruction at the

school.

(g) Use of Funds. - Amounts received by the school for

instruction of students enrolled under this section shall be

retained by the school to defray the costs of such instruction.

The source, and the disposition, of such funds shall be

specifically identified in records of the school.
