The Dayton Area Graduate
Studies Institute (DAGSI) is a collaboration among the
graduate engineering programs of five universities located
in or near Dayton, Ohio. The founding members of DAGSI are
the Air Force Institute of Technology, a federal
institution; the University of Dayton, a private
institution; and Wright State University, a state-supported
institution. Its Board of Trustees consists of the member
university presidents and representatives of regional
industry and government including Wright-Patterson Air Force
Base. DAGSI is a nonprofit corporation and receives state
funding, primarily for student fellowships. There is also
strong community support based on the belief that forefront
engineering graduate programs are a fundamental resource
promoting regional economic development. Each institution
accepts the concept of an open transcript and students are
encouraged to take 20-50% of their academic coursework
(except thesis credit) from the other two collaborating
institutions. Such courses carry the same weight as the
institution's own and are not considered transfer
courses.
