Engineering Engineering Officers are responsible for the physical welfare of the ship. They ensure that all systems are working within carefully defined parameters and that any systems that are not operating within tolerances are repaired. They also carry out standard maintenance, and innovation of the ship's systems The Engineering Officer must be particularly versatile in times of crisis when emergency repairs/upgrades/alterations could be the difference between life and death for the entire crew.

Engineering MajorTo major in Engineering, a cadet must take these classes (4 credits):
And 14 credits of these classes:
While any 9 general electives or minor classes can be used to complete your course of study, StarFleet Academy would recommend selecting from the following:
Cadets should total 48 credits: 21 Core, 18 Engineering (4 + 14), and 9 Elective (6 of which can be minor credits). |
| COMMAND | ENGINEERING | SURVIVAL | HEALTH SCIENCES | ARTS & SCIENCES | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Helm & Nav. | Engineering | Security | Nursing | Counseling | Science |
| Intelligence | Com. & Ops. | Tactical | Medicine | MARINE OFFICER | |
