Department of Military Science Strategic Plan

 Mission Statement

The Department of Military Science educates and trains students at Texas Tech University in order to produce leaders of character for service to our nation and the United States Army.

 Vision Statement

The Department of Military Science, always remembering that cadets are students first and that graduation is the most important prerequisite for becoming an Army officer, will ensure that our cadets are properly trained and prepared to meet or exceed national averages for advanced summer training. More importantly, we will ensure that all of our graduating cadets are prepared to lead the soldiers of our Army. As the most visible representative of our military at the University, we will be the consistent leader in promoting professionalism and the values inherent to military service. We will mentor and train our cadets to selflessly serve the University, the community, and our nation.
