1 NGS Accelerated Doctoral Programs (DBA) the National Graduate School of Quality Management DBA - Quality Systems Management* Specializations also available in: Homeland Security & Defense Environmental Policy & Quality Management Healthcare Systems ENROLLMENT@NGS.EDU ext.104 *Not available in Massachusetts
2 A Benchmark Institution From its headquarters on Cape Cod, MA, the National Graduate School of Quality Management (NGS) has established a nationwide presence by taking its programs to students across the country. Meanwhile, the institution fosters collegiality among its vast community of students and alumni that allows it to retain a personal and intimate quality typically found on a traditional small college campus. The aims of all who comprise the diverse NGS student body are two-fold: Enhance their professional skills, and Advance their careers. NGS students often attend resident programs at either their workplaces or other convenient locations. The institution fully understands the travel and/or deployment requirements of contemporary professionals in corporate and military positions; therefore, it also offers a full menu of virtual and blended learning formats. That commitment to flexibility has resulted in student cohorts comprised of attendees from as many as six different time zones. The National Graduate School also offers stand-alone certificates in Quality Systems Management; Homeland Security; Environmental Quality Policy; Lean Six Sigma; and Project Management. All NGS certificate programs contain courses that can be applied toward the institution s degree programs. NGS Main Campus and Administration Center, Falmouth, MA NGS Center and Institute for Sustainability, Green Campus, Woods Hole, MA
3 Accreditation The National Graduate School of Quality Management is accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges through its Commission on Institutions of Higher Education (NEAS&C). NEAS&C is the recognized accrediting agency for educational institutions whose home campuses are located in the New England region. By reciprocal agreement with other regions and the international community, NGS accreditation is accepted across the nation and around the world. Students and alumni who change employment, transfer to different institutions or serve in different locales can rely on NGS accreditation to be recognized by institutions and other accrediting bodies. Inquiries regarding the accreditation status of NGS should be directed to the administrative staff of the institution. Individuals may also contact: Commission on Institutions of Higher Education New England Association of Schools and Colleges 209 Burlington Road Bedford, MA (781) Finaicial Aid available. Contact for more details. Military spouses can now receive military discounts.
4 The Doctor of Business Administration (DBA) Focus: Applied Research for Practical Results Doctoral programs result in the award of various degrees such as the Ph.D., Ed.D., D.M. et al. NGS chose to offer the DBA because of its focus on applied research. The knowledge gained during ones doctoral studies is applied to the continuous improvement of an actual situation at a student-sponsored or NGS-designated organization. The accelerated degree format is offered in response to the call from NGS graduates and other experienced practitioners who desire an advanced terminal credential that matches the dynamic growth in Quality Systems Management knowledge. The program attracts working adults who wish to demonstrably enhance the organizational and operational effectiveness of the institutions with which they are affiliated. Eligible doctoral applicants will possess a master s degree from an accredited college or university as well as experience in a field that can benefit from the application of Quality Systems Management theory and practice. Overview: Accelerated Program Format 2 Year Completion 20 Courses 60 Credits NGS doctoral programs are designed to be completed in two years of continuous study. The curriculum includes twenty (20) three-credit courses. Approximately 25% of the courses are completed in-residence at a designated site while the remaining 75% are completed virtually.
5 Overview: Doctor of Business Administration (DBA) Degree* NGS Doctoral Programs are designed for adult professionals from the private, public and military sectors who wish to remain employed while they simultaneously earn their advanced graduate degree. The programs - like the students - are practical and process-improvement oriented. In addition to instruction, the doctoral faculty provides guidance that enables students to apply quality systems management principles to carefully selected projects to ensure that tangible, measurable improvements are achieved for either employers or sponsoring organizations. In fact, doctoral faculty members and academic division professionals routinely facilitate the selection of projects and project champions as well. NGS offers three doctoral programs: Quality Systems Management (established Spring 2009) Homeland Security & Defense (Florida only) Environmental Policy & Quality Management (Florida only) Applicants interested in either the Homeland Security & Defense, Healthcare Systems or Environmental Policy & Quality Management disciplines may pursue the Quality Systems Management degree and choose a specialization in one of the three. The Dissertation Project NGS students come from diverse sectors such as the aerospace and science industries, public service, and the military. While NGS doctoral students represent such varied occupations as engineering, finance, and continuous quality improvement, they all share a common goal: to implement a dissertation project that proves to be of significant value to an organization, agency or sponsor. That project must yield tangible, quantifiable results. Doctoral Projects have pre-established performance measures that are significant and highly visible in the value stream of the students sponsoring organization. Typically, Projects yield more than a ten-to-one (10:1+) Return On Investment (ROI) on the student tuition investment.
6 Three Unique Characteristics: 1. Project 2. Mentored Teaching 3. Publication The DBA Program is designed to offer students maximum marketplace advantage by mentoring them through three unique achievements: a) Students will complete a significant work-related project that yields tangible results; b) Under the active mentorship of the faculty, students will teach in either the NGS Bachelor of Science or Master of Science program; c) Each student will receive instructional guidance in preparing a dissertation-related article for publication in a refereed periodical.... I have found the outreach of the NGS program helpful in providing opportunities for one to research a selected topic while attending classes, conducting readings and focusing upon the formal education process. This should certainly be a challenge but I am looking forward to the rewards. Philip DeHennis DBA Student, DC Cohort The Boeing Company Washington, DC DBA Class Congratulations on the roll-out of your first DBA cohorts. This will be a wonderful success. From the inside it has generated the kind of excitement that can change the world. I am thrilled to be a part of it. Do what ever must be done to continue the level of effort and support for this program and it will be a world changing experience for the graduates, the organizations for which they work, and beyond. Danny Prosser USCG, Washington, DC DBA Class 11
7 To Apply, the Following are Required: Master s degree and transcript from an accredited institution. The accreditation must be recognized by the U.S. Secretary of Education and/or the Council for Higher Education Association (CHEA); Substantive work and/or military experience; Two letters of recommendation; Personal Statement regarding commitment to achieving project related results; Access to and familiarity with computers (including the Internet). Contact admissions@ngs.edu for more information. If you are concerned that your commute to class may be taxing, read about four doctoral students who began their studies in Michael Billeaudeaux U.S. Coast Guard Catherine Martin Raytheon Brian Wolfe Boeing Alba Villanueva Army National Guard 10,000 Mile Club The low-residency DBA program format draws students from across the nation. In May 2009 the St. Louis, MO site included four new enrollees who comprised what came to be known as The 10,000 Mile Club. This title was conferred in recognition of the distance that the combined group traveled to attend classes. Resident sessions in St. Louis included LTC Alba Villanueva of the US Army National Guard, who traveled from Austin, TX; Catherine Martin, Senior Principal Quality Engineer at Raytheon, who traveled from El Segundo, CA; CDR M. Andre Billeaudeaux, Director of Auxiliary Forces, US Coast Guard, who traveled from Seattle, WA, and Brian Wolfe, Lifecycle Support Technologist, Boeing Corporation, who traveled from Mesa, AZ. Congratulations to those very committed individuals!
8 Doctor of Business Administration in Quality Systems Management (DBA/QSM)* The curriculum is comprised of twenty (20) courses that total sixty (60) graduate-level credits. Phase One requires the completion of the program courses as well as the identification of a Doctoral Dissertation Project. Phase Two encompasses an intensive six-month period of project validation and results verification under the close supervision of a Faculty Doctoral Team. Following the successful implementation of Dissertation Projects, doctoral candidates are required to orally defend their work before a Doctoral Dissertation Committee. Purpose of the DBA QSM To provide students, particularly working adults and other nontraditional students, with a businessrelated advanced terminal education that matches the dynamic growth of Quality Systems Management knowledge; To engage students in a rigorous, exciting, challenging, theoretical and practical learning experience in a specialized curriculum that is uniquely centered in both management sciences and quality systems and quality systems, which incorporates a doctoral dissertation project that requires tangible, measurable results; To provide students with the resources required to clearly and effectively interact with others; To impart and demonstrate to students the aligned relationship of a quality systems management theme to ethical behavior; To challenge doctoral candidates to complete original and noteworthy action research, contribute to the body of knowledge through a recognized publication, to implement a significant process or organizational improvement through the sponsorship of a senior leader, and to demonstrate understanding through teaching at the college level. *Not available in Massachusetts

12 Frequently Asked Questions 1. How does the NGS DBA* differ from a typical PhD program? Our program is accelerated, capsulized, and project-based. Unlike most PhD programs, the NGS DBA program includes an ending date which enables students to complete a sequentially-offered series of courses; immediately begin work on the dissertation; and meet all other program requirements during a specified time-frame. Further, while most PhD programs require the implementation of dissertation projects merely to add to the body of knowledge for purely research reasons, the NGS DBA program requires that its dissertation projects provide tangible, measurable results that affect real-world organizations in operation today. 2. How long will it take for me to complete the DBA program? You can complete our program in approximately 24 months. 3. How much work can I expect? The workload will be similar to that required of any other PhD program. A considerable amount of reading and writing assignments are required. All will enable you to focus upon your project, your scholarly publication and teaching of an NGS course. 4. How and when are the classes held? Students meet onsite in-class for approximately 25% of the program in blended courses taught over separate weekends during the duration of the program. Blended is defined as in-class, online and research-based. There are 20 courses in total. The remaining 75% of the courses are online and research-based. opportunity
13 knowledge 5. What must I complete to obtain my doctoral degree? The three components of the NGS DBA Program include: 1. Select, conceptualize, research and implement and document (via dissertation) a rigorous dissertation project that must be presented and defended before the NGS Doctoral Dissertation Committee; 2. Select, research, write and submit a scholarly journal article to three recognized peer-reviewed journals; and 3. Teach a segment of an NGS Bachelor of Science or Master of Science course while serving as a Doctoral Teaching Assistant. 6. Who teaches the DBA courses? All courses are taught and mentored by doctoral-level faculty members who are experts in their respective fields. Further, you will connect with industry leaders as part of the lecture series. 7. How are classes taught? Courses are offered in a five-module format. On Thursday evenings, webinars provide the content for Module I. On Friday evenings, students travel to a designated site to complete Module II in-residence. Modules III and IV are offered in four-hour blocks of time between 8am and 5pm Saturdays while Module V is offered from 8am to noon on Sundays. Blended courses include a Module I webinar (usually on Thursday evenings), while the remaining four modules are completed independently. Understandably, online course are offered in a fully-virtual format.
14 8. What is the Juried Review Process? We have four gates at the end of each of the four semesters. These classes or gates are taught by a Juried Review team of three faculty members. The Juried team teaches, guides and supports your project to ensure you are on the right track and that your project is viable. The team is available throughout your enrollment to provide recommendations for improvements, modification, and implementation strategies that ensure your sponsoring organizations receive the best benefit of the project. By the fourth gate in the final semester, students will present their project and the Juried Review team will determine the grade. 9. What special steps are required to initiate the Doctoral Dissertation Project? Each student must acquire a local Day-to-Day Champion, a Financial Champion and Senior/Executive Champion to support and guide the project. NGS provides a structure to support project management via its internet offering: Quickbase. Members of the doctoral faculty and the Juried Review Team will help keep you on track and provide assistance at all times. success
