The course provides cadets with an opportunity to enhance their skills in one or a combination of the disciplines hosted in the Department of Behavioral Sciences & Leadership. Under the supervision of a faculty advisor, each cadet defines a topic, conducts a review of the literature, and develops a research plan. Regular meetings with faculty advisors are scheduled to discuss issues in methodology, review progress in the review of the literature, and critique draft papers. At the end of the semester, cadets present a fully developed research proposal for their thesis.

Cadets develop individual research themes from contemporary behavioral science topics. They are then grouped under a seminar leader for study, discussion, and preparation of their research reports, culminating in a presentation before the seminar group. Cadets will be expected to master both the significant work within the topics of choice and the body of criticisms of the works and to propose a study to advance the body of knowledge.
