To achieve its mission of advancing human performance in air, space, and cyberspace through research, education, and consultation, the 711 HPW has four Primary Mission Areas :
;Airman Health and Performance
The convergence of science, medicine, and engineering to enhance, optimize, and sustain the physical, psychological, cognitive, and behavioral states across the Airman’s lifecycle to achieve airpower dominance.
;Airman-Machine Teaming
Airmen and machines working together to accomplish the mission with greater effectiveness and efficiency than either entity can achieve on its own.
;Force Protection
Mitigation of harmful and stressing mission environments, while sustaining the performance and ensuring the safety of Airmen through research, consultation, and integration advancements.
;Education and Training
Prepare diverse learners in a stimulating academic environment to perform the mission anytime, anywhere, and in the most demanding circumstances. Apply and extend learning and assessment science, technologies and applications coupled with policy, and operational experience, to create research-driven, agile and relevant curricula for persistent readiness and lifelong learning.
These PMAs cut across the 711 HPW’s organizational lines and are aligned with USAF and DoD strategic direction.
