U.S. Naval War College
The U.S. Naval War College, established in 1884, offers a one-year, resident program that graduates about 600 students a year, and a robust distance program that graduates about 1,000 students a year. Students earn Joint Professional Military Education (JPME) credit and either a diploma or a master's degree in National Security and Strategic Studies.
The college's Professional Military Education (PME) programs prepare leaders for the challenges of operational and/or strategic level leadership over the remainder of their careers as decision makers and problem solvers.
Through war games, conferences, workshops, and publications from the Center for Naval Warfare Studies, our research arm provides direct curriculum support to our educational programs and focused, task-driven analysis for fleet customers and government agencies across the national security spectrum.
