Navy Post-Graduate Office Policy and Procedures for MIT 2N Students.

Student Organizations

MIT Course 2N students are organized by class according to graduation year and courses/subjects being taken. The senior USN student in each group is designated as the Class Leader and is responsible to the Academic Officer (AO) and/or Curriculum Officer (CUO) for designated duties in connection with the administration of his/her group. A brief outline of the areas of responsibility of the Class Leader follows:

a. Provide assistance in group accountability. Ensure that all students in his/her class are accounted for after each academic holiday/break.
b. Assist in communicating and enforcing command policies and procedures.
c. Ensure that student office spaces and common areas are kept tidy and in good working order.
d. Oversee the execution of collateral duties and special projects assigned to the class.
e. Develop and maintain a consolidated class schedule for each academic term/period. Provide copies of the schedule to the AO and CUO.

Out of Area Procedures

If you are traveling out of the local area and/or will not be reachable at your normal emergency contact numbers for more than 24 hours, you must inform the PG Office and your Class Leader of your plans and how to reach you in case of emergency. Email notification is preferred.

School-Related Travel

The 2N Program sponsors and funds certain school-related travel. Examples include attending professional conferences/symposiums, meeting with project sponsors, conducting site visits, and short-term internships. For such travel, 2N students obtain permission from the AO or CUO via email request. The student pays for the travel and submits a travel claim for reimbursement AFTER the travel is complete. Students are responsible to coordinate travel plans and arrangements with the AO/CUO and 2N Administrative Assistant to ensure that they understand the MIT travel rules and procedures.
