Changes: Starfleet Academy courses

Revision as of 06:08, 10 August 2008

The following is a list of courses and subjects given at Starfleet Academy.

Required reading

The Prime Directive
Starfleet General Orders and Regulations
The exploits of Fleet Captain Garth
The translations of Dr. Roger Korby
The military strategies of Klingon General Korrd
The Picard Maneuver, a battle tactic devised by Jean-Luc Picard
The judicial decisions of Judge Aaron Satie

Publications

The Art of War, writings of Chinese philosopher Sun Tzu
The Fall of Kang by the Klingon poet G'Trok

Although it is probably safe to assume all cadets read the Prime Directive and General Orders, it has not been established whether the same is true of the other texts, or whether they are required merely for students in specific courses. This may explain why Benjamin Sisko was familiar with "The Fall of Kang," while Piersall was not. (DS9: "Second Sight")

Further assignments

Field training
Training cruise

Extension courses

It has been mentioned that members of Red Squad, a program for elite cadets, receive special classes, which may or may not be included in the above listing.
