The guarantor of military higher education in the Czech Republic is the University of Defense in Brno. The student must successfully complete a demanding five-year course of study. Individual subjects develop the relevant competences necessary for mastering military service and the requirements placed on future commanding officers. Operations research (OR) belongs to the theoretical subjects. It teaches students logical thinking and helps solve optimization problems. The authors of the article focused their attention on the subject of OR. The aim was to find out in which military universities (mainly in NATO countries) OR is taught, what is its content and some other characteristics of the teaching of this subject. A questionnaire was created for this purpose. That questionnaire was distributed to selected military schools. A comparison was made based on the information obtained. The examined data are entered into the appropriate tables. Some conclusions
are obtained.
