Naval ROTC

The Naval Reserve Officers Training Corps San Diego Consortium was established in the summer 1982. The San Diego NROTC Unit is a single battalion headquartered at the University of San Diego, with San Diego State University serving as a second host institution. The Battalion has grown from an initial cadre of 28 to its current strength of over 200 students. This includes Midshipmen, active duty Marines participating in the Marine Enlisted Commissioning Education Program (MECEP), and active duty sailors who have been selected for the Seaman to Admiral 21 (STA-21) Officer Candidate program. The NROTC consortium has offices and offers Naval Science courses at both USD and SDSU campuses.
