The University of Kansas is committed to helping military and civilian leaders of the Armed Forces and major governmental agencies to better carry out their duties and missions worldwide.
Our mission is to assist the Armed Forces' advanced education centers such as the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College at nearby Ft. Leavenworth, the Naval War College and the Air Force Academy in maintaining faculty (military and civilian) with the advanced degrees necessary to teach at the highest level and also preserve the certifications required by regional accreditation agencies. Our mission also includes educating officers in the most advanced knowledge, information, research, and methodologies available in the disciplines required by the individual services--the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marine Corps--as well as major commands such as the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), Special Operations Command (SOCOM), and Central Command (CENTCOM). Furthermore, our office seeks to facilitate the exchange of information, ideas, and knowledge between KU and the Armed Forces and promote faculty and student exchanges, joint conferences and seminars, and curricular development and research.
By doing so, the Office of Professional Military Graduate Education hopes to enhance the capacity of KU and the nation's military and governmental organizations to better serve the nation and the larger world community.
