    About the Surface Warfare Officer Role

    As a member of America's Navy, you will have the opportunity to serve on the most modern and advanced fleet of ships in the world. As a Surface Warfare Officer (SWO), you will be extensively trained to maintain and operate these ships, their crews, and their systems.

    You will lead by example and have the opportunity to excel as a leader, potentially serving as a Commanding Officer over an elite crew and being an authority in all aspects of Navy assignments, including:

    • Directing personnel operations aboard Navy vessels like aircraft carriers, cruisers, destroyers, amphibious warfare ships, mine warfare ships, and frigates
    • Managing shipboard vertical launch systems
    • Using computer displays and advanced technology in battle and ship defense
    • Supporting Navy expeditionary forces, Theater Air Missile operations, anti-submarine warfare, surface-to-air warfare, and supply missions

    Your responsibilities as a SWO may include nearly every aspect of Navy missions. You may be in charge of any number of shipboard operations and activities, working with specialized forces like:

    • Aircraft Carrier Forces: Defend aircraft carriers by coordinating air, submarine, and surface ship defense
    • Cruiser-Destroyer Forces: Provide attack and defense with missile and firepower capabilities, supporting anti-air, anti-submarine, and anti-surface warfare
    • Amphibious Forces: Embark and transport vehicles, equipment, and personnel for amphibious assault operations
    • Combat-Logistics Forces: Provide support with fuel, ammunition, food, and supplies, as well as repair, maintenance, and rescue capabilities through Fleet Support Ships
    • Mine Warfare Forces: Detect, identify, and neutralize maritime mines

    You may also have the opportunity to serve in the prestigious Navy Nuclear community, working on nuclear-powered submarines and aircraft carriers.

    Your work environment may take place at sea or ashore, in various environments. Sea duty may involve serving aboard ships, while shore duty could include assignments at the Pentagon, at the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, CA, or in command and management positions at bases and stations worldwide.

    Training and advancement opportunities are available to help you develop your skills and knowledge as a SWO. Newly commissioned officers attend Officer Candidate School (OCS) in Newport, RI, followed by advanced training that includes both sea and shore-based instruction.

    Newly assigned Surface Warfare Officers will be assigned to a surface ship, where they will lead a team of Sailors in responsibilities such as electronics, weapons, and engineering systems. The focus is on earning full Surface Warfare qualification. After completing initial sea tours, SWOs may be selected for high-level staff, command, or strategic roles. Promotion opportunities are competitive and based on performance. The ultimate goal for many is to command their own ship.

    As a Surface Warfare Officer, you can advance your education through opportunities at institutions such as the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS), the Navy War College (NWC), and Joint Professional Military Education (JPME) at various service colleges.

    To become a Surface Warfare Officer, a four-year degree from an accredited U.S. college or university is required. You can enter the SWO community through the Naval Reserve Officers Training Corps (NROTC), the U.S. Naval Academy, or Officer Candidate School (OCS) if you already have a degree.

    Candidates must:

    • Be a U.S. citizen
    • Be between 19 and 29 years old at the time of commissioning
    • Meet the Navy's physical standards
