    Command and medical are two separate tracks though. Would a captain of a hospital ship need a medical degree?

      That’s true but I would think that the career path to captain would be more agnostic. Starfleet would benefit from having captains with tactical backgrounds, scientific. Backgrounds etc.

      Probably not need but it would be helpful when determine where to apply what limited resources (time, staff, ship location) is most needed for a given mission
