Army ROTC

Our Mission

SIUC Army ROTC Detachment; in partnership with SIUC Leadership recruits, retains, educates, and develops quality leaders who meet requirements of our Nation and total Army in order to ensure the continued strength of our Nation. 

Intent

The overall focus is to provide a challenging curriculum, developmental leadership opportunities, and enhanced experiences that will provide Cadets with the attributes to succeed as junior officers and leaders in the US Army. 

Recent Activities:

The Saluki Strike Battalion is gearing up for a new school year! As our Cadets come back for another year and new students arrive to the program for the first time, we are excited to welcome them to our team! We want to ensure we train to standard while making sure we stay safe.
