Abstract
This study examines the extent of training in cognitive warfare concepts in the curricula of various disciplines at Imam Ali (AS) Military University. The main goal is to assess the level of preparedness of students at this university in dealing with cognitive warfare and to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the existing educational program in this field. Using a descriptive-analytical method and utilizing the course syllabi approved by the Ministry of Science, Research and Technology, all courses offered at the university were examined and analyzed. The findings show that the share of courses related to cognitive warfare varies across disciplines. Some disciplines and majors receive this type of training in full, while others receive a smaller share of these courses. This imbalance in the distribution of cognitive warfare training indicates the need to revise the university curriculum and provide more integrated and comprehensive training in this area. Quantitative and qualitative analysis of courses indicates a lack of specialized training in the field of cognitive warfare. The results of this research will be very useful for educational planners and officials of Imam Ali (AS) Military University in improving and updating the curriculum in the field of cognitive warfare.
