Middle Georgia CEO highlights MGA's Fulbright Scholar-in-Residence from Ukraine during the 2023-2024 academic year, Dr. Yuriy Loboda.
"Loboda will be in residence on MGA’s Macon Campus and will serve as a guest lecturer across all campuses, in addition to working with faculty on developing a curriculum focused on civil-military interaction, or CMI. The curriculum deals with questions of political control of the military by civilian authorities and also questions of supporting civil society with military assets, not just from a traditional security point of view but things like rebuilding after conflicts, reestablishing civilian government and public services, and understanding the human populations affected by war.
'We’re delighted to have Dr. Loboda with us this academic year,' said Dr. Christopher Lawrence, chair of MGA’s Department of Political Science. 'He will be a great resource for our students and faculty in understanding current issues in Europe, including the Russo-Ukrainian War, expansion of NATO and the European Union, humanitarian issues, and civil-military relations.'
