The Army Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) program provides college men and women an opportunity to receive training in leadership. Through study and application of the principles of leadership and management, ROTC students develop self-discipline, self-confidence, and other desirable qualities that will contribute to success in any career. The program in military science may be completed through either a two-year or a four-year course of instruction. Students who successfully complete either program and who are awarded a baccalaureate degree may be offered a commission in the U.S. Army, the Army Reserve, or the Army National Guard.

The Army ROTC office is located on the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) campus. Under the Cooperative Exchange Program and a cross-enrollment agreement, Miles College students are eligible to participate. Course credit is granted on a semester hour basic. Registration for the classes should be coordinated through the Office of Academic Records. Based upon open enrollment,, the lower division freshman and sophomore levels will be taught on Miles College campus. For more information contact LTC Randy C.
