Abstract
Many of the instructional laboratories at the Naval
Postgraduate School are outdated and consequently are inadequate
for instructing graduate students in current technology. This
situation resulted from both insufficient OPN funding over the
past two decades and from the fact that revolutionary
technological changes have occurred during that period of time.
The more deficient laboratories are those associated with the
physical sciences and engineering fields. This deficiency has
been previously commented upon by the Board of Advisors which
recommended that NPS develop a comprehensive plan for
rectification. Enclosure (1) is the plan we have developed and
it is the result of careful condensation and prioritization. It
would modernize existing laboratories and create several new ones
in keeping with the demands of modern technology. Educational
efficiency demands that our students be exposed to theory in the
classroom and practicality in the laboratories in order to
generate a lasting understanding.

Description
This report describes a plan for upgrading the instructional
laboratory equipment at the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS).
Many of the present laboratories are deficient in modern
equipment with the result that students who use this equipment
are impeded in their education and are not exposed to equipment
which is in common day use in industry. Excerpts are included
from the past two Board of Advisor reports which stress the need
for this modernization.
