Army Engineer Basic Officer Leader Course

Eighteen weeks at Fort Leonard Wood learning that combat engineers do everything: build bridges, clear mines, demolish obstacles, and construct FOBs — sometimes all in the same week. Engineer BOLC covers construction management, route clearance, and the explosive breaching techniques that make infantry officers jealous. You'll learn to read blueprints and detonation calculations with equal fluency. Engineers are the most versatile branch in the Army, and EBOLC is where that identity takes root.
