Features

The DAU App includes the convenience of push notifications and alert indicators for new content; personalization settings to see only the content you desire; maps and directions to DAU locations, which integrate with your device's native capabilities; and off­line viewing of content.

​​
The Flash Briefing module offers a quick view of the latest updated information from DAU: the operating status of your campus, any important announcements, the next upcoming event, and the latest news and blogs, all in one screen.

​​
The DAU News and Blogs module includes personalization, which allows you to view DAU news, events, or career gateway blogs of your choice and share them with your friends and colleagues. You also have off­line access to view the module in air­plane mode; and you can hear the news read aloud from the app.

​​
The new Events module shows you all the upcoming and past events on the DAU calendar. You can use the app to add a DAU event to your device’s calendar, share them with your friends and colleagues and you can choose to get push notifications of upcoming events. If you miss an event, this module lets you watch a webcast through our new Podcasts and Video module!

​​
The Defense Acquisition News module offers links to acquisition news articles pulled from many government, military, and commercial agencies and organizations, which you can now share, just like DAU news and blogs

​​
The design of the Resources module combines in-app files and online access. You can view copies of DAU ACQuipedia and Glossary in the app, and you can download e-Pub and iBook copies of chapters from the Defense Acquisition Guidebook (DAG) to your device by tapping the blue icon next to each DAG chapter. Other resources are linked to their mobile websites. You can also filter the list of resources you want to see on the app.

​​
Currently, the Training module links to related pages on DAU.edu. A later update to the app will enhance this module to mirror the new DAU iCatalog.

​​
The Info module consists of classrooms, class schedules, gate information, DAU operating status, contact information, student polices, DAU locations, customer support, and app feedback. The classrooms and class schedules are integrated with the Maps module and the operating status is integrated with push notification feature and the alert indicator on the home screen.

The Maps module can show any DAU campus. The module helps with driving directions to the DAU campuses, and walking directions from the student parking lots to the buildings and classrooms. The module is integrated with the class schedules. Also, you can search for points of interest in or near the campuses, such as restaurants, etc. On the Fort Belvoir and San Diego campuses, an Augmented Reality viewer provides real-time walking directions for campus locations, using your device’s camera. The closer you get to a building, the more information you see in the marker.

The new Podcasts and Video module gives you access to all the public accessible content in the DAU media library. You can stay connected by listening to DAU-hosted podcasts, or watching webcasts of events that you might have missed.
