The Fellowship on Military History and Strategy

The Fellowship on Military History and Strategy (MHS) is a graduate-level course on the military and diplomatic history of WWII. Using battlefields across Europe as the classroom, MHS seeks to educate early- and mid-career American political and policy professionals about the strategic conduct and moral importance of the conflict.

The fellowships consists of:

• Six seminars in Washington D.C. on military strategy, military doctrine, and on the history of World War II.

• A visit to battlefields across Europe–including stops in London, Normandy and Munich–for staff rides and seminar-style discussions. Past itineraries have included visits to the Churchill war rooms and Omaha Beach. See below for 2027 dates.

• Discussions, dinners, and lunches with leading historians at historic sites across Europe.

In addition to the fellowship, TPIF conducts staff rides in the US. These opportunities are open to select TPIF alumni and current fellows. Past domestic staff rides include Antietam, Gettysburg, and Yorktown.
