A Comparison of the Air Force Institute of Technology Graduate Transportation Curriculum to Similar Curricula Offered by Civilian Institutions

Abstract

The Directorate of Transportation, at HQ USAF, requested a thesis effort be put forth to research certain questions about the curriculum of the Transportation Management Option of the Graduate Logistics Management degree. These questions involve the appropriateness of the current curriculum in regard to the transportation environment of the 1990s and how the AFIT transportation curriculum compares with the transportation curriculum of graduate civilian institutions. Interviews were conducted with the six individuals who have served as the Transportation Option Manager or Transportation Course Director since the program was founded. The purpose of the interviews was to determine what skills the Air Force transportation officer needs to operate in the environment of the 1990s. (JES)
