Department Summary

The Department of Military Science (Army ROTC), one of ten instructional units within the College of Professional Studies and Fine Arts, houses the Army ROTC detachment at San Diego State University.

The Department is supported by one part-time Administrative Support Coordinator and a part-time Student Assistant.
