Summer Workshop on Analysis of Military Operations and Strategy 2017 Call for Applications

Twenty First Annual Summer Workshop on
Analysis of Military Operations and Strategy (SWAMOS 2017)
to be held at Cornell University, July 9-23, 2017.


The workshops held in the previous twenty years have been extremely successful experiences in intellectual community-building, and participants each year have responded that the experience exceeded their expectations and proved critical in their professional development.
SWAMOS will pay all travel and living expenses for the workshop. 

Our objective is to provide an opportunity for people who have a general exposure to security issues but who would like to become academically conversant with military policy studies, and who would incorporate material on the subject when teaching courses on international relations or foreign policy.
SWAMOS focuses on subjects that are no longer taught in detail in most universities.  Although some attention is given to guerrilla warfare and counterinsurgency, the program aims primarily at developing a grasp of conventional warfare.  Last year’s syllabus can be found on our website at:
 SWAMOS is funded by a private foundation, and is not sponsored by any government agency.


More information than appears in the attached brochure may be obtained from the SWAMOS program coordinator, Emily Holland at ejh2132@columbia.edu or swamos-info@columbia.edu.

The application and letter of recommendation must arrive by March 1, 2017. Fore more information go to www.siwps.org/swamos.
