After Dr. Nancy Dahl retired from the U.S. Navy, she found her way to a career in higher education.
While in the Navy, Dr. Dahl earned multiple degrees including a Master of Science in Administration. She began pursuing her doctorate in 2001, but the events of September 11th required her to withdraw from the program.
Employment led to more education: a certification in Legal Studies. Then, Dr. Dahl’s path presented an opportunity to teach general education courses, including Sociology, English, and Business Communication. Teaching college courses turned into a passion, and she returned to her doctoral program to finish what she started.
Her Doctor of Philosophy in Organization and Management was conferred on June 30, 2012 after she completed her dissertation: The Role of Management Education Faculty in the Development of the Knowledge Worker: A Phenomenological Study.
Dr. Dahl advanced to the position of Associate Dean and later managed a Business Program and earned a third bachelor’s degree in Business Administration with an emphasis in Human Resources Management and a professional certification in Human Resources.
Her philosophy regarding education is that success in life – however success is defined – requires education in one form or another; one must commit.
