Military Science (Army ROTC)
Leaders are Grown Here
Through classroom instruction and hands-on learning and field exercises, our cadets develop critical decision-making skills, confidence and connections that will prepare them for roles as commissioned officers or success in civilian careers.
What can students expect to learn by taking ROTC?
- They learn the leadership and management skills needed to become a U.S. Army officer or have a successful civilian career.
How is ROTC different from regular college management courses?
- Students in ROTC learn through a unique program that involves both classroom and "live" situations. For instance, an ROTC cadet might be found leading classmates through adventure training, down a river in a raft or up a mountain wall.
How do students benefit from Army ROTC?
- In college and after graduation, cadets find that the training and experience that they have received are assets whether they're pursuing an Army or civilian career. Employers place high regard on the management and leadership skills that ROTC instructors stress. Plus, ROTC looks great on a résumé. When cadets complete the ROTC course, they become commissioned officers in the U.S. Army upon graduation.
It's not just the Army stuff you are learning. You’re learning how to be a good person in general.
