ROTC (Reserve Officer Training Corps)

The Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) is a college program that prepares students to become commissioned officers in the military. Participants, known as cadets, receive leadership training, education, and often scholarships in exchange for commitment to serve as officers after graduation. The program integrates academic coursework with military training, fostering skills in leadership, discipline, and teamwork. ROTC enables students to pursue higher education while earning the ability to serve as a commissioned officer upon completion, helping the military develop future leaders and providing valuable career opportunities.
