Dear,

The University of Defence was founded on 24 February, 2011, with the intention of uniting the education and training of cadets for officer rank, continuing education and professional development of Serbian Armed Forces officers, as well as scientific research activities aimed at developing a scientific approach to phenomena of importance for the defence of Serbia, into a functional whole, of national importance.

Although one of the youngest universities founded by the Republic of Serbia, the University of Defence nurtures the traditions of Serbian military education, which last for almost two centuries, during which officers participated in writing our history and built their knowledge and skills, and often lives, into the foundations of our state. At the same time, the University of Defence is an institution that follows the latest trends in the education of officers and the development of military sciences, in order to provide the Serbian Armed Forces with high quality officer personnel. The combination of the tradition of Serbian military education, nurturing the values of the officer profession and the development of a modern teaching and educational and scientific research process, is a platform on which the University of Defence carries out its mission.
