Higher Education

The Defense Resources Management Institute (DRMI) provides integrated professional education programs in resources management and analytical decision making for military officers and civilian defense officials from the United States and more than 170 partner nations. Established in 1965 as an educational institution by the Secretary of Defense, the DRMI is located at the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) in Monterey, California. The DRMI's multi-disciplinary faculty conduct graduate-level executive education courses in Monterey and tailored courses and seminars at other locations in the U.S. and abroad upon request.The DRMI's programs enhance the efficient and effective allocation of scarce resources in today's defense organizations by developing participants' analytical decision making skills. Participants do not focus on learning detailed job-specific skills but rather on the concepts, techniques, and issues that pervade resources management decision making in most mid-management through executive-level positions. To accomplish this, the DRMI provides a dynamic learning environment featuring interactive lectures on key concepts from economics, management, and quantitative reasoning; facilitated small group discussions; and real-world case studies.The DRMI's programs bring together mid to senior-level managers, military officers, grades O-3 through O-6, and civilian defense officials of grades GS-09 through GS-15 or equivalent. Once a year, flag and general rank military officers and equivalent civilian officials only attend the Senior International Defense Management Course.
