The U.S. Naval War College (NWC) is a Joint Professional Military Education (JPME) institution serving the nation, the Department of Defense, and the U.S. Navy. U.S. and selected international graduates earn Master of Arts degrees in National Security & Strategic Studies or Defense & Strategic Studies accredited by the New England Commission of Higher Education (NECHE). The College educates tomorrow's leaders, informs today's decision-makers, and engages with Allies and partners by developing strategic perspective, critical thinking, and cultural awareness in peace, crisis, and war. We are actively seeking candidates with diverse academic and professional backgrounds. More information on the college can be found at www.usnwc.edu. Maritime Advanced Warfighting School (MAWS). MAWS teaches the Navy's advanced warfighting curriculum. MAWS is an integral component of the NWC's mission to educate strategic and operational leaders. First, MAWS educates officers to be operational-level leaders: to understand and apply maritime power effectively; to initiate and lead Operational Planning Teams (OPTs); and to think creatively and critically by evaluating complex, chaotic security problems, identifying key causes and effects, developing exhaustive alternatives, presenting recommendations to operational commanders, and effectively implementing commanders' decisions. Second, MAWS educates officers to conduct effective operational planning as members of planning teams in multinational, interagency, joint, and maritime environments. Primary to this second objective is continual interface with other Service and Joint planners, which enhances the working relationship necessary in the Joint Planning and Execution Community (JPEC). MAWS graduates serve in operational planner billets on Numbered Fleet, Service Component Commander, and Combatant Commander Staffs, and are groomed to fill key leadership positions within their respective warfare communities. The curriculum is taught primarily through readings and discussion seminars. MAWS faculty members are expected to lead seminars, participate in curriculum development, and perform other academic duties as needed. Responsibilities.
