The main purpose of APSI COE is to drive excellence and improve performance in the discipline of international relations and strategic coalitions.

Through its Research Center of Excellence, APSI COE fosters innovation and builds organisational resilience to navigate and thrive in rapidly changing environments. This  programme fosters collaboration and networking among researchers, experts, and practitioners in the field of international security. It serves as a platform for knowledge sharing, dialogue, and cooperation between different security coalitions, academic institutions, think tanks, and relevant stakeholders. The research relates to the study of conflict and peace strategies,  and explores why and how a state interacts with other actors.   This collaborative research programme is started with  Preparatory Action for Research on Strategic Studies (PARSS). From PARSS publications, research on strategic partnerships and alliances will be conducted. 

APSI COE preparatory action for research on strategic studies relates to the study of conflict and peace strategies, analyses areas of enquiry in strategic studies, and explores why and how a state interacts with other actors.

The preparatory action for research on strategic studies utilises APSI summits and consortiums, and selected webinars/seminars. PARSS endeavours to provide a blueprint for evaluating and improving current strategies.
