Teaching the Next Generation of Warfighters

Academic Individual Advanced Development (AIAD) opportunities are a well-known and highly valued part of cadet education, providing experiential learning that enables cadets to apply knowledge learned in the classroom and gain invaluable real-world experience.

However, these programs are not limited to the academic disciplines, but they are also an important element in cadet military training and professional development. The Department of Military Instruction’s (DMI) Academy Scholars Program offers cadets unique experiences enhancing their education and development in preparation for a life of service in the profession of arms.

DMI’s AIADs focus on military-to-military relationships, research, and internships with special designated units, and provide cadets with practical advanced education related to their field of study and application of science in the military.
