MSL 302 Applied Leadership in Small Unit Operations

Challenges cadets by utilizing increasingly intense situational leadership challenges to build cadet awareness and skills in leading small units at the squad and platoon level. Skills in decision-making, persuading and motivating team members when "under fire" are explored, evaluated and developed. Aspects of military operations are reviewed as a means of preparing for the Army ROTC Advanced Camp.Cadets are expected to apply the Army leadership development model while leading teams; to apply tactical principles and doctrine to Army operations; and to conduct a self-assessment in personal development areas such as character, adaptability, and fitness in a garrison and field environment. Cadets also participate in a physical training program. They must either meet the prerequisites (MSL 100/200-level courses and MSL 301), attend Basic Camp, or substitute past military experience with the approval of the professor of military science. All cadets must take the Advanced Leadership Laboratory course to fulfill Army commissioning requirements.
