Postgraduate Sponsorship Opportunity - MA in Applied Strategy and International Security at the HNDC, Athens

In furtherance of the Association’s Board of Directors’ desire to continue supporting relevant maritime education and to assist Members, the Association is pleased to advise that funds have been made available by the Association to sponsor the fees of two students wishing to study for an MA in Applied Strategy and International Security at the Hellenic National Defence College in Athens.

This is an exceptional opportunity for two students from the private sector to study for an MA on a course which is normally only available to International Officers and Civil Servants. The course is accredited by the University of Plymouth.

Further details can be found in the course brochure here:

and more information can be obtained from either Dr. Georgios Mourtos or Dr. Fotios Moustakis, whose contact details appear in the course brochure.

To obtain sponsorship, candidates must be working for Members of the Association and work in or have an interest in maritime security.

The course begins in September 2018 and the closing date for applications is 31 June 2018.

The first step for any prospective candidate with the required qualifications and experience, who wishes to apply for one of the two sponsorship places, is to submit a request to the Association. Requests advising the candidate’s name, company, address, present position / occupation and a brief supporting statement should be emailed to the Managers’ Agents:
