Purpose and Meaning through Leadership and Challenge

Army Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) is one of the most demanding and successful leadership programs in the country. We educate and train Cadets in Army officership, Army values, physical and moral standards, and tactical craft. Cadets are coached and mentored to be leaders who are able to think critically, adapt and overcome in adverse situations, and apply good moral judgment. Our result is quality commissioned Army Officers of character, armed with the tools to succeed and ready to lead our nation’s Soldiers.

Academics

In the pursuit of knowledge, Cadets prepare themselves for leadership by earning their bachelors or advanced degree as well as courses specifically designed for leadership and ethical decision making. 

Athletics

Participation in our physical training program, intramural sports, and the Ranger Challenge team provide our warrior scholars with the resources to reach their peak fitness and test each individual's mental and physical potential. 

Team

Leadership Excellence is achieved through the unity and bond created through camaraderie. The US Army provides a network of Longhorn Battalion Alumni and many experienced leaders. Through these relationships the Texas Army ROTC program fosters leaders with valuable assets beyond the lecture hall. 

Enter the Profession of Arms and experience endless opportunities not available in a traditional setting. Apply for a full scholarship, serve your country, and graduate with experiences not provided in a classroom: Become a US Army Officer.
