Master Chief Petty Officer is the ninth, and highest, enlisted rate (paygrade E-9) in Starfleet, just above Senior Chief Petty Officer. Master Chief Petty Officers are addressed as "Master Chief (last name)". They constitute the top 1% of the enlisted members of the maritime forces. Promotion to this rank carries requirements of time in service, superior evaluation scores, and selection by a board of master chiefs. Similarly, Senior Chief Petty Officers and Chief Petty Officers are chosen by selection boards. This rank can be abbreviated using MCPO.
This rank is equivalent to the Starfleet Marine rank of Sergeant Major.
