System dynamics has been taught for over two years in two doctoral programs offered by Nova University, Fort Lauderdale , Florida. These programs are designed for working professionals in public and business administration and feature the inverse of the usual arrangement in which instruction is given on the university campus. For this reason, a traditional teaching approach cannot be used. This paper describes the Nova teaching environment, the format and teaching materials used for system dynamics, student characteristics and performance, and the present trends which affect instruction in system dynamics at Nova University.The introduction of the course in system dynamics has generated a positive response among the students and a limited amount of turbulence in the organization and administration of the program.
