Mission & History

Brown University has a rich and distinguished history of contributing to the efforts and mission of our nation’s Armed Services.

Mission Statement:

The Office of Military-Affiliated Students (OMAS) assists student veterans, ROTC cadets, and other military-affiliated students in making successful transitions into and out of the Brown community. We do this by offering programs and support services that facilitate learning opportunities within the military-affiliated and Brown community at large, connecting students to campus and community resources, and by supporting and advocating for our student veterans and ROTC cadets. OMAS also engages with Brown students interested in learning more about the military-affiliated community and with students exploring their options to serve in the Armed Forces post-graduation.

A Rich and Distinguished History

Brown University has a rich and distinguished history of contributing to the efforts and mission of our nation’s Armed Services. Whether it was serving as a hospital and barracks for troops in the Revolutionary War, running a year-round academic program to educate officers for World War II, or conducting cutting edge research to help wounded warriors returning from Iraq and Afghanistan, Brown has always maintained a proud relationship with veterans and the military services.
