Development of strategic leaders - In broad terms, the programs and curricula of the USAWC are built around the concept of mastering the strategic art, which the USAWC defines as "The skillful formulation, coordination, and application of ends (objectives), ways (courses of action), and means (supporting resources) to promote and defend the national interests." Depending upon the specific program, curricula may include: strategic thinking (critical, creative, systems, ethical, historical), theories of war and strategy, strategic leadership (leading and managing change in large complex organizations within volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous environments), national security policy and strategy (the art and science of developing, integrating and applying the instruments of national power-diplomatic, informational, military, and economic-during peace and war), theater strategy and campaigning, and the development and employment of landpower within a Joint, Interagency, Intergovernmental and Multinational environment. Successful completion of all of the requisite requirements established by the USAWC for granting a degree will result in the awarding of the Master of Strategic Studies Degree (MSS) degree. Upon program completion, many graduates begin operating in the national strategic or theater strategic environment-either directly or as advisers to the senior leadership of the Armed Forces, the Department of Defense, other governmental agencies, or in foreign militaries.
