EIU Department of Military Science

Department of Military Science

Our mission is to recruit, retain, train and commission future Army officers.

For more than 30 years, the Alumni of the Panther Battalion have used their leadership skills in influencing, motivating and inspiring their organizations all over the world.

In Army ROTC you will learn to become a leader-not just a person who gives orders but a person who leads by example. Being an Officer in the U.S. Army means you're a counselor, a strategist and a motivator. It's similar to being a vital manager in a corporation. As an Officer, you will lead other Soldiers in all situations and adjust to environments that are always changing. You'll be driven to achieve success with your team on every mission.
