System.[4] This system groups majors into three tiers. Tier 1 includes engineering courses that directly relate to military operations (Systems Engineering and Civil Engineering were the only engineering disciplines excluded).

ERAU ROTC has a large number of Cadets enrolled in the Homeland Security program and many of those Cadets are high performers focused on a long career in the military.
