Research Topic Submissions

Student Research Topic Submission Form: Academic Year 2022-2023

Each spring, Marine Corps University (MCU) solicits student research topics for the coming Academic Year (AY) from Marine Corps and Joint organizations. The resulting topic list is made available to all MCU students and Marine students at other institutions and is submitted to the JPME Prospective Research Topics Database and NPS Athena platform. The list also is available to MCU’s faculty and Marine Corps fellows. Students are not required to select topics from the list. Those who do are encouraged to coordinate with the topic point of contact throughout the research process.
