1
00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:08,600
- [Ronald] We have four
different graduate schools here.

2
00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:11,430
It's applied science,
it's information science,

3
00:00:11,430 --> 00:00:12,870
dismiss and public policy,

4
00:00:12,870 --> 00:00:15,173
and international graduate education.

5
00:00:17,250 --> 00:00:19,740
Officers are sent here under orders,

6
00:00:19,740 --> 00:00:24,450
because their communities
of surface, submarine,

7
00:00:24,450 --> 00:00:27,110
aviation, engineering duty,

8
00:00:27,110 --> 00:00:30,840
their communities think that
they need this education

9
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:33,830
to take with them throughout their career

10
00:00:33,830 --> 00:00:36,103
to help advance whatever
the Navy is doing.

11
00:00:38,302 --> 00:00:39,710
- [Don] Being in post
graduate school is demanding.

12
00:00:39,710 --> 00:00:42,817
A student wants to come here,
they better be ready to work.

13
00:00:42,817 --> 00:00:45,023
It's not a golf vacation.

14
00:00:46,130 --> 00:00:48,420
There's a lot of study,
there's a lot of learning,

15
00:00:48,420 --> 00:00:50,140
and you have to be inquisitive.

16
00:00:50,140 --> 00:00:53,280
You have to be thinking,
you have to want to succeed,

17
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:55,713
and everybody will bend
over backwards to help.

18
00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:59,040
- [Shaurice] This is a great opportunity

19
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:02,240
for you to basically
give back to the fleet

20
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,441
or address problems that you've seen

21
00:01:04,441 --> 00:01:05,570
while you were out there,

22
00:01:05,570 --> 00:01:07,160
so you can come here and like hey,

23
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:08,780
we had this problem with our ship

24
00:01:08,780 --> 00:01:10,250
or on our shore command,

25
00:01:10,250 --> 00:01:12,050
and you could come here and study

26
00:01:12,050 --> 00:01:13,390
and find a way to solve it

27
00:01:13,390 --> 00:01:15,573
and then apply it back to the fleet.

28
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:18,640
- [Don] That's what MPS is about.

29
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:21,620
How do we ask hard questions?

30
00:01:21,620 --> 00:01:23,410
Ask them with our experienced students

31
00:01:23,410 --> 00:01:26,090
who know so much about what the fleet is,

32
00:01:26,090 --> 00:01:27,540
'cause they just came,

33
00:01:27,540 --> 00:01:29,660
and they're going right back.

34
00:01:29,660 --> 00:01:31,160
How do we work on the right problems

35
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,000
and hopefully help everybody else

36
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:34,780
piece these parts together

37
00:01:35,870 --> 00:01:38,223
to get to a more effective
future for our Navy?
