Management Department

The mission of the Department of Management is to prepare future commissioned officers of the U.S. Coast Guard to be competent and ethical management professionals. Academic development will be grounded in the educational and professional outcomes of the Academy and the core values of the U.S. Coast Guard.

The Department will be guided by the management needs of the U. S. Coast Guard to ensure officers are prepared for their future role as stewards of public resources. We fulfill our mission primarily through our teaching, focusing on the academic and professional development of the individual cadet. Our scholarship will focus on a blend of management practice-related research in the areas strongly of interest to the Coast Guard, such as leadership, mentoring, and organizational effectiveness, as well as the scholarship of teaching and learning.
