Air Force ROTC
Detachment 012 Iron Warriors
Recruiting, mentoring and developing high-quality leaders for the world's most powerful Air and Space Forces.
Air Force Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (AFROTC) is an educational program designed to allow Birmingham area students to earn a commission in the United States Air and Space Forces while pursuing a college degree in almost any academic major.
Air Force ROTC develops the leaders of tomorrow by preparing students to become U.S. Air Force or Space Force officers while earning a college degree. In AFROTC, you’ll not only build lifelong friendships, but you may also have the opportunity to pay for school through our scholarship programs. Most importantly, unlike many other college students, you’ll have a rewarding career after graduation. AFROTC allows graduates to pursue various career fields, including aviation-related jobs, law, space operations, medicine, intelligence, computer systems, engineering, and many more. You can take part in this unique experience for up to two years as a first and second-year college student without a military commitment. The AFROTC program at Detachment 012 is open to all students at Samford University, the University of Alabama at Birmingham, Miles College, Jefferson State Community College, and the University of Montevallo. We also offer AFROTC in the Huntsville area at the University of Alabama in Huntsville.
