Why Pitt State for ROTC?


ROTC is very active within the community, attending sporting events and on campus activities, and hosting memorials and ceremonies for the community that cadets are able to participate in. Army ROTC produces some of the best officers in the country and Pitt State holds a reputation for having an outstanding program that produces officers who serve all over the world. WHY?

Army ROTC at Pitt State is located in a new building on campus that also houses a National Guard Armory and the Student Recreation Center. Because of the uniqueness of the building, our cadets have access to state of the art facilities, which we utilize for physical fitness training, professional and leader development events, tactical proficiency, and academic success.

The ROTC building has four gymnasiums, a weight room, indoor track and many other options for our cadets to use daily. It also has an Engagement Skills Trainer, allowing for military weapons familiarization, a Laser Marksmanship Training System, and a Virtual Battlefield Simulator.

Additionally, we have our own rappel tower outside of the building, a physical fitness pit with pull-up and dip bars, and 60 acres available for our Situational Training Exercises where paintball systems are used to enhance the value of training. We also use a local firing range one mile from our building to ensure weapons firing proficiency for all of our cadets prior to attending Advance Camp.
