Fleet Captain Andrus Jaxx, Academy Commandant, Starbase 118 Campus Welcome to Starfleet Academy All Starfleet officers must attend Starfleet Academy and complete a minimum four year training program. Cadets at any Starfleet Academy campus have choices when they're compiling their courseload and choosing their focus. Most cadets enter the Academy at age 18. The Academy adds four years to that, plus one year for each Cadet Cruise taken (if any). Those who wish to pursue a career in command can add two more years of specialized command training. The Academy's main campus is located in San Francisco, Earth. Additional campuses are spread across the Federation. There are also several other training sites in sector 001, including a flight training area near Saturn's orbit. All students who apply must have a certain level of education prior to admission. This includes being able to speak, read, and write Federation Standard, and having good mathematics skill. However, admission to Starfleet Academy is very competitive, with only a limited number of spaces available for prospective cadets. Students may wish to have already studied a variety of subjects in order to increase their chances of acceptance. After admission, cadets begin the standard four-year program to train for their roles in Starfleet. During the first two years at the Academy, cadets gain a solid background in the skills important to all Starfleet officers in the Academy's General Studies program. To be considered for positions aboard prestigious vessels such as the Enterprise, a cadet's academic performance must be exemplary. Honors graduates are among the first considered for positions aboard those vessels. The class valedictorian and salutatorian each may choose their station assignment, making these graduates the most highly prized. Curriculum To compile a curriculum, you can begin by reviewing the sections below: Academy Departments: List of all education departments at the Academy, and their courses offered. Academy Majors and Minors: List of the available fields of study as majors or minors. Academy Core Courses: Outline of the core required courses for all students. Academy Standard Course Layout: The standard course layout for Academy students. Academy Major and Minor Species: List of what species are considered "major" or "minor" for the purposes of study. Note This area is completely In Character, and does not dictate any part of your real training to become a part of our group. Neither is there any area of our website where you can actually take any of the courses listed here. Compiling a list of courses your character has taken is completely optional and is generally used to fill out your character bio more completely.
