History
The idea for a graduate education program for naval officers first emerged in the late 19th century but, initially, the concept found few advocates.

Aviation Club 100% Recomend
The aviation club is a family and it is very encouraging to learn there
Best among the best
This is a great experience with outstanding lecturers bringing their expertise and experiences. The discussions are valuable and insightful in the sense that most of the students have attained enough practical knowledge in the field. It is my interest to pursue further studies over to achieve a doctorate in a similar discipline.
