What To Expect With A Career In Science & Medicine.

The skills and hands-on training you gain in U.S. Army science and medicine careers can't be matched anywhere else. The Army healthcare community empowers doctors, specialists, and healthcare professionals to put patients first with a focus on general and preventive health. With access to the most advanced technology, facilities, and resources, you can provide high-quality care to our Soldiers and Families.

Benefits for you and your Future

When you join the U.S. Army, you receive more than a paycheck. From healthcare and housing to education and bonuses, we have benefits to support what’s most important to you.

Housing

As a Soldier living on an Army post, your housing is covered. You’ll live in a community designed for Soldiers and their Families with housing, amenities, parks, and more. If you’re living off-post, we offer a housing allowance to help pay for living expenses like rent and utilities.
Salary

Salary is based on your rank and years of service, and accounts for only part of your total compensation. We also offer bonuses, allowances, and other benefits that could contribute to your overall income. So, as you grow in your career, complete special certifications and training, and receive benefits, you’ll earn more money, too.
Education

If you want to go to college or advance your education, we have options to support you. The GI Bill, scholarships, financial aid programs, and the Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC) are all ways you can get help paying for up to full tuition, housing, books, and supplies.
Healthcare

As a Soldier, you can receive the best healthcare benefits in the country at little to no cost. From general and mental health to specialized care, you’ll not only have access to one of the largest networks in the world, but we’ll also use state-of-the-art technology in top-rated facilities to care for you and your family.
Vacation

We believe that the time you have off is just as important as the work you put in. That’s why as an active-duty Soldier, you can earn 30 days of vacation each year, along with free weekends, national holidays, and sick days as needed.
Bonuses & Allowances

There are bonuses, allowances, and incentives you can receive on top of your salary. Bonuses can be tied to enlistments, specific jobs, or when you ship to training. Allowances are provided to offset the cost of living and help pay for things like food, clothing, and housing.

Learn to Lead the Way

You'll get more than a career. No matter what path you choose, you'll have access to the tools needed to become the best version of yourself.

Become an Officer

Leading Soldiers and planning missions are just some of the ways you'll serve as an Officer in the Army—and it starts with a college education. You can enroll in the Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC), attend the U.S. Military Academy, complete Officer Candidate School (OCS), or get Direct Commission with experience in a professional field.
Leadership Opportunities for Soldiers
- You'll complete advanced training and specialty schools on your path to becoming an Officer in the U.S. Army Medical Department. This experience gives you the opportunity to earn nationally recognized professional and trade certifications that can help you advance in your career.
- The Army offers the Green to Gold Program, which gives enlisted Soldiers the opportunity to earn a college degree to become an Officer.
- The Partnership for Youth Success (PaYS) program connects Soldiers with employers and opportunities after the Army that could benefit from their discipline, work ethic, and leadership skills.
I was pleasantly surprised when I joined the Army, how many women there are in senior-level roles. That just goes to show that if you're a great physician and a strong leader, they will promote you. That, to me, is very inspiring.

Confidence Has No Limits

You'll get more than a career. No matter what path you choose, you'll be tested, overcome obstacles, and find opportunities to better your skills and yourself.

Trust the Confidence Course

Your confidence will first be tested, as a cadet or in Basic Training, in what we call the Confidence Course. Though this obstacle course assesses many things like teamwork, coordination, and perseverance, it also tests personal challenges like fear and mental toughness. The goal is to show that the more challenges you overcome, the more you prove to yourself that you're capable of anything.
Building Confidence in the Army
- Confidence doesn't happen overnight. It takes a combination of work ethic, persistence, mental and physical strength, sharp skills, and experience.
- During training, Soldiers build confidence not only by completing tasks and overcoming their own fears, but also by watching their fellow Soldiers succeed by doing the same.
- Throughout a career in the Army, Soldiers can continue to gain confidence through fitness training, competitions, marksmanship, and evaluations from their superiors.
It gives me a sense of pride that what I'm doing is noble, and to some people, it may be admirable.

Help Shape the Future of the Army

You'll get more than a career. No matter what path you choose, you'll have the opportunity to help others find theirs.

The Army Mentorship Program

Mentorship helps build competence, self-awareness, and morale among Soldiers coming into the Army or a new role. This program connects mentees to mentors in the Army community to promote learning and development. It's an opportunity for mentors to pass along their knowledge, experiences, and expertise to influence the next generation of Army leaders.
Mentorship Opportunities for Soldiers
- Army Officers not only lead the men and women in their command, but they're also responsible for the training and mentoring of junior Soldiers in their field.
- Recruiters are tasked with more than seeking out potential candidates, they help guide prospects through the enlistment process. They answer any questions, discuss opportunities and ways to serve, and make sure prospects have everything they need until they attend Basic Training.
- There are mentorship opportunities within Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC) to help guide the younger students through the program and college life in general.

Build Bonds That Last a Lifetime

No matter what path you choose, you'll form relationships, build trust, and support your teammates. Camaraderie is not only essential to the success of a mission, but it also impacts the well-being of the Army as a whole.

The Buddy Program

Soldiers don't have to go through the enlistment process and into Basic Training alone. The Buddy Team Enlistment Option, or the Buddy Program, lets a recruit and up to five friends enlist and go through Basic Training together. So, future Soldiers can experience camaraderie and a sense of belonging right from the start.
Camaraderie in the Army
- Camaraderie is one of the most unique aspects of the Army and is something you likely won't find in a civilian career or everyday life. Through training, missions, challenges, and triumphs, you'll form the strongest bonds built on trust, respect, and shared experiences.
- If you choose to join the Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC) in college, it'll be one of the first experiences of camaraderie you'll have in the Army. You'll learn the value of working together to master skills and achieve common goals.
It's difficult to be away from your family for a long period of time, but what's interesting is that it's compensated by the camaraderie—the brotherhood and sisterhood—you experience. Those few people really become like family.
