We aim to establish the U.S. Army War College as the nation’s premiere center for the study and practice of civil-military relations
Our Mission
To sponsor and promote the development of a healthy, sustainable relationship between the American military, society, and political leaders through education, research, and outreach
CMRC focuses its resources along the following lines of effort:
Developing Leaders
CMRC offers opportunities for US Army War College students to expand their understanding of today’s civil-military challenges and develop solutions that address the civil-military gap
Advancing Knowledge
CMRC promotes and supports research and writing on issues related to civil-military relations broadly defined. We encourage publications in both policy-relevant forums and more traditional academic scholarship with policy implications.
Connecting Professionals
CMRC sponsors and supports some of USAWC’s more important outreach initiatives with the goal of bridging the civil-military gap and creating a network of scholars and practitioners who can foster healthy civil-military practices in the future.
