Which service area is NOT offered to midshipmen at the U.S. Naval Academy?

Healthcare Administration is the service area that is not offered to midshipmen at the U.S. Naval Academy. The Naval Academy focuses primarily on forming leaders for the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps, with specific career paths tailored to military operations and combat.

Surface Warfare, Submarine Warfare, and Aviation are all core fields within the Navy that focus on different operational aspects of naval warfare. Midshipmen at the Naval Academy are trained in these areas to prepare them for active duty roles where they will be responsible for various missions and technologies. While healthcare is an essential element of Navy operations, the formal training for roles in healthcare administration is typically offered at other institutions or through specific programs designed for medical personnel after they complete their initial military training or service. As such, those pursuing healthcare or administrative roles in the Navy usually follow different educational paths compared to those focused on military operations.
