Our Courses
Military Science Courses:
The ROTC program is comprised of the Basic Courses (Freshman/ Sophomore) and the Advanced Courses (Junior/Senior). The Basic Courses are designed to introduce students to military leadership, develop basic leadership skills, and present individual challenges. The Advanced Courses are focused on preparing students to serve as leaders in the United States Army.
All Basic and Advanced Courses include both classroom work and a weekly afternoon lab. Weekend activities are also occasionally required for enrolled students. Physical Training for Cadets occurs on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of each week at 6:00 am on Clark Field. If you are interested in attending one of our sessions, please have this form filled out by a physician before attending and bring it with you.
