Course Author: CDR Raymundo Villarreal Navy Element Lewis & Clark Center, Room 2528, (913) 684-4670 Course Description: This 24-hour course provides the forum for research over a broad spectrum of topics benefiting the student and the Navy. The objective and emphasis is to conduct original in-depth research into an area of specific interest to the individual student. Students will work independently with a designated Navy Element adviser to select a topic designed to foster in depth research and analysis of an appropriate topic. Students may opt to develop research supporting the needs of external sponsors within the Navy to include, but not limited to, parent communities, Naval Historical Center, Navy Warfare Development Command and other commands associated with concept development. Students selected to teach the Navy Strategic and Operational Capabilities lesson (C306) in the Core Curriculum will receive A850 credit based on their performance in class. Students completing an MMAS with a Navy related thesis may coordinate with the Navy Element Deputy Director to determine potential thesis related deliverables to meet the A850 requirement. This elective is generally student-initiated, while the A855 Navy Research Project is generally initiated or suggested by the Director, Navy Element, on a case-by-case basis. Both electives require the approval of the Director, Navy Element. Class Time: 90 percent independent work; 10 percent discussion. Work Load: To be determined between student and author.
