MAGIC (Online Courses)
MASINT for the Advanced Geospatial Intelligence Community

To answer the high demand for MASINT classes at various locations around the country, the MASINT Certificate Program courses are being developed online. The first course, OENG 530: Fundamentals of IR and MASINT Phenomenology, is the program's pre-requisite course. Go to ACP Enrollment and fill out the ACP Enrollment Form. On the ACP Enrollment Form select the OENG530 DL (online) course.

The online course has a ten week format with about two lessons, review questions, homework, and a discussion forum each week. The lesson content includes audio, video, animations and simulations. The midterm and final exam are also delivered online.

These courses could also be taken in a two-week residence format at the AFIT campus on Wright-Patterson AFB. Students are welcome to take courses in either or both formats while earning their certificates.

Testimonial: USAF Major Enrolled in AFIT's Graduate Engineering and Management School.

Major Don Baker, 12 May 2005

"The overall quality of the on-line course far exceeds other on-line offerings I've seen at AFIT or USAF PME courses. The video/audio quality is top notch. The editing is professional and the on-screen material changes quickly enough to eliminate stagnancy. The effect of the slides zooming in on hard-to-see portions (for example, the EM spectrum) is very beneficial. The combination of scripted instruction (voice over) and real classroom lecture is very effective."
