What is Army ROTC?

The ROTC program is designed to train the future leaders of our nation’s Army. ROTC is an academic program offering college students the opportunity to develop their leadership skills as they pursue their education. Basic military skills are taught throughout the curriculum which are designed to build basic Army competency while developing leadership and character. Upon graduation and meeting Army requirements, Cadets commission as 2nd Lieutenants in the United States Army ready to lead our nation’s Army. The ROTC program at WFU is also the host for our partnership schools, Winston-Salem State University and Salem College.

Program

The ROTC academic course load is located within the Department of Military Science. Cadets enroll in 24 credit hours of military science courses. The program includes Physical Training, Leadership Labs, and academic classes. Cadets are challenged mentally and physically with leadership and broadening opportunities throughout the school year.
