NPS was created in 1909 at the U.S. Naval Academy. The first class was composed of 10 officers, 3 professors, and marine engineering was the sole course of study.

Now, NPS graduates 800 highly motivated USN, USMC, USAF, USA, USCG, and coalition warfighters a year, across 29 curricula. Come take a look at NPS... join us in arming DOD for tomorrow's fight.
