Hello,

We are excited to invite you to our third installment of CTX Conversation, taking place on July 9 at 12:00 PM PDT via Zoom. Join us for an engaging discussion featuring Dr. Tim Jones, a Donald R. Beall Defense Fellow in the Department of Defense Analysis at the Naval Postgraduate School, and Dr. Christopher Anzalone, a Research Assistant Professor with Middle East Studies and the Krulak Center for Innovation & Future Warfare at Marine Corps University who teaches on Africa and the Middle East.

Mr. Anzalone is also an adjunct professor of history and government at George Mason University. He was formerly a research fellow with the International Security Program at Harvard University's Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs and a postdoctoral visiting scholar at the Center for Global Islamic Studies at George Mason University. They will explore the current status, activities, and potential future plans of radical insurgent groups like al Shabaab in Africa.

Don't miss this opportunity to gain valuable insights from leading experts in the field.

SECNAV Space Summit

Tuesday, 9 July 2024 to Thursday, 11 July 2024
King Hall Auditorium | Glasgow Hall

The SECNAV will host the Naval Space Summit at the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) in Monterey, California from 09-11 July 2024. The Summit will re-baseline the naval space focus of efforts at the strategic and operational level and clarify the way forward in establishing a path for success against current and future  adversaries.

This series of presentations, required for all new students, guides students through expectations for research and writing at NPS. Click here for more information.

This interactive "writers room" experience will guide students through a hands-on professional-level creative experience to build skills through developing the WIC scenario. NPS students and faculty will gain an appreciation for key elements of narrative for more compelling and powerful messaging throughout their academic journey and their careers. A compelling scenario sometimes makes the stakes clear more quickly than a series of graphs and tables in a technical report. In complex military problem spaces, our warfighters need to make these stakes clear to decision makers for quick effective action so tools of narrative will be key!
