Special Information for DAU Students
The University of Alabama in Huntsville and Defense Acquisition University have a strategic alliance to advance the educational opportunities of the Defense Acquisition, Technology and Logistics workforce leading to a Master of Science in Management degree, a Master of Accountancy degree, and a Master of Science in Management Information Systems degree.
These graduate degree programs utilize Defense Acquisition University (DAU) courses that members of the Defense Acquisition, Technology and Logistics (AT&L) workforce have completed to meet Defense Acquisition Workforce Improvement Act certification requirements in at least one of the 13 acquisition career fields. These programs are available to any member of the Defense AT&L workforce who has a bachelor's degree from an accredited university, at least Level I Certification in at least one acquisition career field, meets the grade requirements, meets the Graduate Management Admission Test requirement, meets prerequisites, and is admitted to one of the graduate degree programs.

Students may transfer up to 12 semester hours of acceptable graduate credit earned in DAU courses recommended by the American Council on Education's (ACE's) The Guide to the Evaluation of Educational Experiences in the Armed Services in the graduate degree category. All transferred credit must be less than six years old at the time of a student's graduation from UAH.
