The Center for Strategy and Technology was established at the Air War College in
1996. Its purpose is to engage in long-term strategic thinking about technology
and its implications for U.S. national security.
The Center focuses on education, research, and publications that support the
integration of technology into national strategy and policy. Its charter is to
support faculty and student research, publish research through books, articles,
and occasional papers, fund a regular program of guest speakers, host
conferences and symposia on these issues, and engage in collaborative research
with U.S. and international academic institutions. As an outside-funded
activity, the Center enjoys the support of institutions in the strategic,
scientific, and technological worlds.
An essential part of this program is to establish relationships with
organizations in the Air Force as well as other Department of Defense agencies,
and identify potential topics for research projects. Research conducted under
the auspices of the Center is published as Occasional Papers and disseminated to
senior military and political officials, think tanks, educational institutions,
and other interested parties. Through these publications, the Center hopes to
promote the integration of technology and strategy in support of U.S. national
security objectives.
