The Army Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) program at the University of Dayton offers a student the opportunity to receive unmatched leadership training. For those who qualify, scholarships are available and upon graduation, you receive a minor in military science and a commission as a second lieutenant in the United States Army.

The ROTC program is primarily designed to develop leaders through classroom activities, hands-on training, both indoor and outdoor, and many other team building exercises. The student gets the desired and highly sought after leadership skills necessary to succeed both in the corporate world and in the military. ROTC is a values-based program where basic values such as integrity, personal courage, respect and honor are the foundation upon which we build successful, competent leaders of the future.

The ROTC cadre and I welcome anyone who wants to take a military science class regardless of the reason. I can assure you it will be fun and informative. You’ll also acquire leadership skills that are applicable to any academic program and, more importantly, to your future profession.
