Murray State Unviersity ROTC program

 



The Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) Cadets at the Murray State University and its host/crosstown universities (University of Tennessee Martin, Bethel University, Lane College, & Freed Hardeman University) experience one of the best leadership development programs in the world. Our qualified instructors teach, coach, and mentor our Cadets to develop their own personal leadership style. This program will help Cadets become a leader of character, solve complex problems, adapt to a constantly changing environment, and lead soldiers in the US Army as a Second Lieutenant (2LT).
