<p>I’ve always been really interested in military science. I’m graduating this year… and I really just want to get a taste of this stuff before I leave UCLA forever and will probably never come close to taking such a class. There are no enrollment restrictions, but is it generally open for non-ROTC students? I don’t want to be the only non-ROTC student in the class either… that’d be kind of awkward.</p>
<p>Thanks in advance for any feedback/input!</p>
<p>I am a first year cadet, and there are a few civilians in our classes, only the first two years of military science courses can be taken by non-cadets, for the 100 series classes, you must be a cadet. The civilians aren’t looked down upon or anything like that, and it is an interesting course, not to mention an easy A.
Note: I assume this is the same for Army, although I am an AF cadet, so I’m not sure. The classes for the different branches are as follows:</p>
<p>Army: Military Science
Air Force: Aerospace Studies
Navy: Naval Science</p>
<p>Thanks ckm! I just enrolled in MILSCI 12… Looking forward to it! Do you know if it’s mainly classroom lectures, or would there be any fieldwork involved as well??</p>
<p>ckm, are you going to enlist after graduating from ucla?</p>
<p>To answer PXalpine, the class is just lectures, field work is only done by cadets in a separate class. And yes, I plan to enlist after college.</p>
