"I have yet to be interviewed by an employer who did not ask me specifically about my VTS Minor. It is usually the first question asked."

Gain An Edge in Interviews. Help Veterans Succeed.
The best place to start is by taking VTS 200 Introduction to Veterans Studies. This course introduces you to the program's core philosophies and approaches. It also counts toward the Gen Ed VI requirement that all students take to gain "diversity of perspectives."
We encourage all of our students to enhance their educational experience with service learning, internships, and involvement with our student organization, the Veterans Studies Alliance. Content knowledge gained in the classroom is essential. That knowledge is longer-lasting when applied in practical settings.
Both programs are available 100% in-person or online.
