If you have missed the add deadline, come talk to us. The advanced course is the final two years of the ROTC program. The curriculum is more intense and prepares you for the challenges of military leadership. During your junior year you will be trained in small unit tactics and learn the duties and responsibilities of a squad and platoon leader. This phase of training is combined with classroom and hands on instruction of land navigation, military tactics, and how to prepare and present operation orders.
Physical training is also an important aspect of the advanced course.
The main objective is to prepare you for the five week Advanced Camp between your junior and senior year. This camp is a six week training session, giving you the opportunity to practice everything you have learned, including how to lead. Your senior year will put you into cadet leadership positions that will challenge your leadership abilities and prepare you to become a second lieutenant. During this time you will be responsible for the training, evaluation, and recruiting of younger cadets. These challenges are intended to prepare you for service in the U.S. Army, either as a reserve or active duty officer.
