Tillie Fowler NROTC Building

The Tillie Fowler NROTC Building is home to both our Navy and Marine NROTC units. Jacksonville is considered a “super-base” city because we have multiple bases in our area including NAS Jacksonville and NAS Mayport; our NROTC units can gain experience and training opportunities with active duty Sailors and Marines.

Naval Science/ NROTC

At Jacksonville University, you can get real experience in leadership and prepare for a career like no other by joining our prestigious Naval Reserve Officers Training Corps program. As an NROTC student, you can choose your major. You will also be required to complete Naval Science courses and attend drill sessions.

When NROTC students complete their bachelor’s degree, they are commissioned as an Ensign in the U.S. Navy or a Second Lieutenant in the U.S. Marine Corps. They also possess some of the skills most sought after in today’s college graduates – professionalism, discipline, honor and commitment.
