ROTC Minor
STUDENTS MAY PURSUE ROTC WITHOUT SELECTING THE MINOR IN THE PROGRAM. However, CCC graduates who would like the appropriate ROTC minor
to appear on their official transcript will have to officially select this option during academic advising and meet all the
stated requirements.
ROTC is divided into four military divisions. While each division requires their students to take similar number of military
coursework, the actual courses differ with the individual branches. For this reason, we suggest identifying the following three programs:
Aerospace Studies (Air Force), Military Science (Army), and Naval Science and Leadership (Navy & Marines). View our
ROTC page for
additional information.

All ROTC courses listed above are part of the requirements set by ROTC and are subject to change by them as needed. In addition,
these classes are held at our host institution, the University of South Florida, and taught by qualified members of the military faculty there.
Additional Requirements
In addition to the courses listed above, students who choose one of these ROTC minors must satisfy the following requirements:
1. BIB 440 Christian Ethics - this course can also satisfy the Bible elective in the required Bible minor
2. Attend two non-credit CCC Military Science seminar sessions during each term enrolled in the minor. These will typically be
scheduled during the normal chapel period.
Why choose the ROTC minor at Clearwater Christian College?
ROTC provides excellent leadership training in one of the most respected military organizations in the entire world. Choosing the ROTC
minor allows students to officially note their academic pursuits in a formal fashion. Pursuing ROTC at Clearwater Christian College provides
students with a Biblical context and environment for their leadership preparation and service to the Lord toward their military vocation.

I chose CCC because it offers an Air Force ROTC program unlike many other Christian colleges. I received a pilot's slot in the Air Force
while still taking Bible classes and enjoying the Christian atmosphere of a Bible college. I love it here. I appreciate most the spiritual
maturity of the college. The faculty and staff have a real focus on Christ and the devotions in the evening and the chapels in the morning
are very encouraging to my spiritual walk. Every half-hour of group devotions is a chance for me to learn how to walk closer with Christ,
get sin out of my life, or commit to serving Him more.
