NEWPORT, R.I.— Students attending the Maritime Security and Governance Staff Course (MSGSC) at the U.S. Naval War College (NWC) stand at attention during a graduation ceremony onboard Naval Station Newport, Feb. 27, 2026. A professional military education course, MSGSC was introduced in 2022 to provide mid-grade officers from multi-mission navies and coast guards the knowledge and skills to effectively promote and achieve maritime security and good maritime governance in their national and regional waters. The course is also available to government officials of equivalent rank. Established in 1884, NWC informs today’s decision-makers and educates tomorrow’s leaders by providing educational experiences and learning opportunities that develop their ability to anticipate and prepare strategically for the future, strengthen the foundations of peace, and create a decisive warfighting advantage.
