The Naval Reserve Officers Training Corps (NROTC) Program at Jacksonville University is designed to educate and train qualified young men and women for service as commissioned officers in the Navy or Marine Corps. NROTC prepares mature young men and women morally, mentally, and physically for leadership and management positions in an increasingly technical military. In addition, participation in the naval science program instills in students the highest ideals of duty, honor and loyalty. There are two ways to participate in the NROTC program, the Scholarship Program and the College Program. Under both the Scholarship and College Program, students are expected to attend naval science classes and drill periods. College Program students may apply for scholarship status after demonstrating successful performance in the NROTC program. Uniforms are provided for all students. Career Opportunities The United States Navy and Marine Corps are a very important part of the nation’s defense. The men and women who selflessly serve this country are led by officers, trained and motivated to perform with the highest standards of professionalism, honor, courage, and commitment. Upon graduation, NROTC students receive a commission as an Ensign in the United States Navy or Second Lieutenant in the United States Marine Corps. The career opportunities for Naval officers include aviation, surface warfare, submarines, special warfare (S.E.A.L.S.), and the Nurse Corps. Marine Corps officers, upon completion of The Basic School (TBS), will serve in one of three communities: aviation, infantry, or logistics/support.
