Military Strategy provides an overview of the fundamentals of military strategy, strategic theory, and the history of military strategy through an Integrative Experience that prepares cadets to evaluate strategic decision-making by considering the relevant political, social, economic and technological context. By the end of the course, each graduate will be able to understand, analyze and effectively communicate both the relation of tactical action to American national policy and the use that is made of force in the international system because as commissioned officers they will directly contribute to the nation?s strategic performance in war. In order to achieve that goal, DS470 cadets will actively learn, apply and analyze case studies utilizing major theoretical and historical concepts in military strategy through individual critical thinking and creativity, group collaboration and peer instruction, and oral and written communication.
