Courses
As a Naval ROTC Scholarship or College Program student you are required to
complete the NROTC academic program which consists of three parts:
Baccalaureate Degree, Navy Specified Courses, and Naval Science Courses.
1. The university’s baccalaureate degree program with a selected
academic major. As a future Naval Officer, you are encouraged to pursue
certain degrees.
Navy Option Scholarship Midshipmen.
Scholarship students are encouraged to pursue majors in engineering,
mathematics, or the physical sciences, although Navy Option Scholarship
midshipmen may elect to pursue any academic major.
Navy Option College Program Midshipmen. College Program students
may pursue any academic major noting the advantage of majoring in engineering
or science when competing for a scholarship.
Marine Corps Option Midshipmen. Students may pursue any
academic major, however, the MOI will guide students to select a field of
study beneficial to a career as a Marine Corps officer.
2. Navy specified courses offered by the university.
These are courses that are required by the Navy in preparation for life as a
Navy Officer. These courses are taught by university Professors and typically
are in-line with your degree path. See table listed Navy Specified Courses
below.
3. Naval Science courses.
These courses are part of your professional training and should be taken one
per semester while attending school. These courses outline the information
essential to being an outstanding Ensign in the Navy. See table below for
further information and the course descriptions at the bottom of the page.
