Army ROTC

Creighton University is one of 272 schools nationwide that sponsors a Military Science Program on a college campus. Students in the Creighton Army ROTC program complete a degree in their chosen major while training to become officers in the United States Army. The Army ROTC program teaches personal development, ethics, values, tactics and leadership. All majors and all levels (freshman, sophomores, juniors and seniors) are welcome to apply. Over 2,300 officers have graduated from Creighton's program, which dates back to 1919.
