Giving to the Military Science Department

Developing leaders of character is the mission of our Military Science Department and ROTC program. By providing students with exceptional training opportunities we prepare them for real world leadership. Giving to the Military Science Department and ROTC allows us to enhance the experiential nature of our training, increase the financial assistance we provide to students and update our facilities to offer a cutting edge environment in which to learn. We are proud of the commitment our Cadets have made, and by supporting this program, you can be a part of ensuring that they are well prepared for a future career of service to the nation. Below are four different giving options that support our program in different ways.
