For more than a century, the University of Colorado has served as a launching pad for future officers in the U.S. military through its Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC) programs, a college-based pathway that combines academic study with leadership development and military training. CU is the only university in Colorado to host all major branches of ROTC, making it a singular hub for military leadership training in the state. Each year, more than 100 students commission as officers through these programs.
