The National Security and Naval Power Bootcamp is a week-long, residential course designed for students to explore policy, security, and technical issues at the intersection of national security and naval power.

By the end of the course, attendees will understand the strategic and diplomatic values of sea power and the importance of oceans to national security policy, as well as how the Navy maintains freedom of the seas. They will learn how the work of scientists and engineers is leveraged to implement policies and will leave with an understanding of naval and national security policy dilemmas and potential solutions.

The NSNP Bootcamp is open to graduate students and post-docs. There is no course fee. Dorm accommodations and most meals will be provided. Space is limited, so apply early! Applications are due by March 15, 2025!
