Program overview
Joint Operations is a graduate program under Military Science, focusing on how to coordinate different branches—such as the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Rocket Force—for efficient battlefield cooperation, achieving a "1+1>2" combat effect. Simply put, it's about learning how to unite the strengths of various forces to win modern wars. Core courses include Joint Operations Theory, Command and Control Principles, Service Branch Knowledge, Informationized Warfare, and Strategic Assessment. You'll also dive into extensive case studies and simulation exercises, like the joint actions in the Gulf War and the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Institutions like China's National Defense University and the Academy of Military Sciences boast strong teaching teams and simulation labs, offering realistic joint command training. This program suits students interested in military strategy, international security, and organizational coordination—especially those with clear logic, strong resilience, and a love for teamwork. A heads-up: as an international student, you may not directly access certain classified courses, but the academic framework and theoretical analysis are fully open.
