Program description

The AA in military studies is designed for a partnership with the U.S. Naval Community College to provide training to enlisted personnel sailors, marines and coast guards. The degree is a rigorous program that provides a comprehensive foundation of study in the history of war and warfare, the history of regions identified in the National Defense Strategy, the U.S. foreign policymaking process, international relations theories, and U.S. political and military systems. The interdisciplinary curriculum helps students gain the tools to use historical analysis, demonstrate critical thinking, and develop strong written and verbal communication skills.

What are accelerated programs?
Accelerated programs allow students the opportunity to expedite the completion of their degree.

3 year programs

These programs allow students to fast-track their studies after admission and earn a bachelor's degree in three years or fewer while participating in the same high-quality educational experience of a 4-year option. Students should talk to their academic advisor to get started.

Accelerated master's

These programs allow students to accelerate their studies to earn a bachelor's plus a master's degree in as few as five years (for some programs).

Each program has requirements students must meet to be eligible for consideration. Acceptance to the graduate program requires a separate application.
