The Master of Strategic Studies (MSS) program has been designed to achieve a specific educational goal: to provide students with a graduate degree that combines a strong military-oriented, liberal arts core with opportunities to study more technical subject matter as represented by our Core Research Areas. This well-rounded graduate program places the technicalities of war and defence-related subjects, past and present, within the context of the overall human experience.Students in the MSS program have a maximum of four years to complete their requirements, but are expected to complete their programs in two years. MSS Students receiving financial support through the University and the Centre will be funded through their first two years.

A stunning collection of some 50,000 military books and other historical writings, ranging from the 1700s to the 1970s, has been received by the University of Calgary’s Library and Archives at The Military Museums. The donation enhances the library’s existing holdings, making it one of the largest special collections of military-related texts in a Canadian academic library.“This is a tremendous resource for anyone interested in the development of military traditions around the world,” says Tom Hickerson, vice provost (Libraries and Cultural Resources) and university librarian. “In addition to the books, there are government documents, military treatises, standard military histories, pamphlets, atlases, manuals and military orders. It’s a tremendous gift to research.”http://www.ucalgary.ca/news/utoday/may19-2011/chicksands?utm_source=UToday&utm_medium=Email&utm_campaign=may-19-2011-chicksands_collection

Old Sacramento, City Of Sacramento, California, Usa

The California State Military Museum is located at 1119 Second Street in the Old Sacramento State Historical Park. It is only a few minutes walk from the State Capital, The California State Railroad Museum and several other fine museums, parks, and tourist attractions. The museum, opened by Governor Pete Wilson in 1991, is the official military museum and historical research center of the State of California. This was reinforced on 11 September 2002 when Governor Gray Davis signed legislation making the museum a permanent museum under the California State Military Department and providing permanent funding for the museum. Finally on 13 July 2004, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger signed legislation to amend the Government Code to make the museum the state's official military museum. "I am signing AB 1939 which establishes the California State Military Museum and Resource Center located in Sacramento, California as the official military museum because I believe that it is very important to preserve California’s storied military heritage."- Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger in his message to the State Assembly, 13 July 2004 Today the museum houses over 33,000 artifacts as well a substantial library and archives. In addition to the main facility in Sacramento, the museum also has three satellite museums at Camp Roberts in Monterey County, Camp San Luis Obispo in San Luis Obispo County, and the Los Alamitos Joint Forces Training Base (under development) in Orange County. We also oversee non-public Regimental Rooms at the San Diego Armory and other National Guard facilities across the state.http://www.militarymuseum.org/
