ROTC

The Department of Military Science (Army ROTC) offers students an opportunity to pursue a 2, 3, or 4-year program of instruction that will lead to an officer's commission in the US Army upon graduation. Students may do this in conjunction with earning any bachelor's degree. The Army ROTC curriculum provides all leadership and military skills training necessary to meet commissioning requirements. This program requires a total of 18 credit hours in courses intended to develop future leaders for America's Army.

The basic objective of Army ROTC is to train and commission the future leaders of the US Army, Army Reserve, and National Guard. All graduates of our program go on to serve in either the active or reserve components in one of many career branches.
