'''Science personnel''' provide the investigative research for ships and transmit that information back to Starfleet Command. Science personnel are also useful on landing parties for interpreting their surroundings. | |||

'''''Note:''' In Starfleet, the "Sciences Division" is not limited merely to the so-called "hard" sciences. Social sciences are also considered important by Starfleet to achieve its mission of exploration. Good examples of this kind of science officer in action are in the TOS episode "Who Mourns For Adonis", where we saw Carolyn Palamas acting as the "Archaeology & Anthropology" officer in the landing party. Another example was Marla McGivers, the Ship's Historian (and Khan's intended) from "Space Seed".'' | |||

If the cadet's chosen specialization is of a science not offered by the Academy, cadets can fulfill the requirement through a number of other academic institutions which utilize the same holographic distance-learning system the Academy uses. | If the cadet's chosen specialization is of a science not offered by the Academy, cadets can fulfill the requirement through a number of other academic institutions which utilize the same holographic distance-learning system the Academy uses. | ||
