MILS 301 - Army Training and Warfighting

Unit(s): 4

MILS 301 challenges Cadets to study, practice, and apply the fundamentals of Army Leadership, Officership, Army Values and Ethics, Personal Development, and small unit tactics at the platoon level. At the conclusion of this course, Cadets will be capable of planning, coordinating, navigating, motivating and leading a squad and platoon in the execution of a mission during a classroom PE, a Leadership Lab, or during a Leader Training Exercise (LTX). Cadets will be required to write peer evaluations and receive feedback on their abilities as leaders, and on how to improve those leader skills that can further develop them as successful officers. This course includes reading assignments, homework assignments, small group assignments, briefings, case studies, and practical exercises, a mid-term exam, and a final exam. Cadets will receive systematic and specific feedback on leader attributes, values, and core leader competencies from the instructor, other ROTC cadre, and MS IV Cadets who will evaluate them using the Cadet Officer Evaluation System (OES). Successful completion of this course will help prepare the Cadet for the ROTC Cadet Leader Course (CLC), which they will attend in the summer at Fort Knox, KY. This course includes physical fitness training, which develops the cadet’s strength, endurance, flexibility and confidence leading small groups.
