Concordia University has a special agreement with the University of Michigan, which allows students to participate in these partnerships. The classes are conducted on the campus of the University of Michigan.
Army ROTC
Two, three and four year full-tuition scholarships are available for students who enroll in Army ROTC with intent to become an Army officer. Students enrolled in the Army ROTC program, upon graduation from college and successful completion of the program; receive a commission as a Second Lieutenant in the Active Army, Army Reserve, or Army National Guard. Many students enroll for one or two years to sample career opportunities. Students incur Military obligation when they contract to become an officer and begin receiving scholarship benefits.

1. Course Overview: The Army ROTC Program can be completed in two, three or four years and is divided into two phases:
a. Basic Course: Comprises the Freshmen (MS I) and Sophomore (MS II) level
and is open to all students on campus as either participating students or
auditing students.
b. Advanced Course: Comprises the Junior (MS III) and Senior (MS IV) cadets. The advanced course is open only to cadets meeting the Army standards for contracting. Progression into the advanced course may be from the Basic Course, Leadership Training Course, or having completed Basic Training or AIT training in the Regular Army or Reserve components. Each cadet entering the Advanced Course must have permission from the Professor of Military Science.
c. Three and two-year programs: Students who have already completed one or two years of college may join the program. The three year plan requires students concurrently take the Freshmen (MSI) and Sophomore (MSII) level courses followed by the two years of advance course classes. The two-year plan requires students to complete a 30 day leadership training course (LTC) after their sophomore year, in order to gain ROTC equivalent credit for the basic course, followed by the two years of advance course classes.
2. Course Requirements: Students are required to register for one discussion course each semester. Each course includes a weekly 90-minute Military Science lab that meets Thursday afternoons 4:00-5:30 p.m. Students will receive academic credit for ROTC classes. In addition to class and lab, students must complete 3 hours physical training (PT) sessions each week.
Air Force ROTC
The program offers studies designed to prepare and commission selected individuals to serve in the United States Air Force. Both a four-year and two-year program leading to commission as a Second Lieutenant are offered. The four-year plan comprises eight terms of courses in aerospace studies and a four-week field-training course at an Air Force base, between the sophomore and junior years. The two-year plan comprises an initial six-week field-training course followed by four terms of aerospace studies (AS310 through AS411 series). Cadets may enroll in either the four-year or two-year program by permission of the chairman.
