    Sec. 7049. Defense industry civilians: admission to defense product
      development program

-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 and
    systems engineering. No more than 25 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 Determination 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 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 President 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.
