University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Dept. of Naval Science.

The Dept. of Naval Science was established in 1940 as the Dept. of Naval Science and Tactics. It operated in conjunction with a unit of the Naval Reserve Officers' Training Corps and was a direct result of the University's decision to aid the war effort by offering military training. Its name was changed to Dept. of Naval science in 1945, and after the war it became a permanent part of the curriculum. Since 1972 the Department's course offerings have been coordinated through the Curriculum in Peace, War and Defense.
