The article concerns basic assumptions of postgraduate Master's studies at Land Forces Faculty. This curriculum has been conducted since February 4, 2001 and therefore it is possible to verify its assumptions. The authors of the article explain the reasons why the new curriculum was introduced, like the armed forces transformations, the need to include military university education into civilian university education and the necessity to prepare personnel in new political and social conditions. In effect of these changes the AON graduate will receive the Master's degree in Managing and Command. Education at the postgraduate Master's course at AON will be carried out during five terms. The aims and contens of each term are composed in order to ensure effective theoretical and practical education. This will allow the students to gain systemic knowledge and based on it skills in the area of organisation management military organisations in particular. The basic education contents still concern operational and tactical education, which decisively influences the level of the students' preparation to perform tasks in military commands and units. As a result introducting new curriculum will not lower the level of preparing the staff – command personnel.
