MS345 prepares cadets to become future warfighters and visionary leaders of military transformation. The course first covers the US Army experience from World War I to the Global War on Terror and the dawn of Army Transformation. MS345 then explores future warfare and culminates in a course integrative project addressing future Army operations. The Course considers US Army doctrine and operational experience across the full spectrum of military operations (offensive, defensive, stability, support). It discusses doctrine and how it influences the way the US Army conducts operations. It examines the internal and external factors that influence change by applying disciplined analytical frameworks. FM 3.0 Army Operations is integrated throughout the course. Students will gain a broad understanding of the evolution of Army doctrine and organization and of critical factors influencing future war and Army doctrine. Students will also hone analytical tools and communications skills in oral presentation, and written assignments, while collaborating with professional military peers.
