Command major in military academy has certain requirements on the cultural foundation, physical quality, political accomplishment, personal temperament and so on. This is because junior commanding officers of the army should not only know the operation and use of necessary weapons and equipment, but also learn to lead troops and manage them, and be good at organizing and commanding when there is a need for combat readiness. Therefore, the military command major requires candidates to have the following conditions on the basis of ordinary candidates: strong physique; Good temperament is suitable for being a commander; Strong spirit of hardship; Love military command specialty and so on. If you are a boy, physically strong and have command and leadership skills, then choose the command major in the military academy.

Take the students of Dalian Naval Academy as an example. After being admitted, candidates will become junior naval commanding officers after four or five years of training. After graduation, students will be assigned to junior command positions in naval vessels. The first position is usually the head of naval vessel department or team leader. Of course, there are also students who go to master's or doctor's degrees and are assigned to corresponding command posts according to their majors after graduation. According to the composition of naval forces and their cadre growth specifications, commanding officers are trained in four levels: technical command, arms tactical command, contract tactical command and campaign command. In other words, if you behave well, you will have the opportunity to learn the tactical command of arms at the Naval Command Academy (formerly Guangzhou Naval Academy) and then become a vice captain or captain. Before entering the naval intermediate command post, you must go to Nanjing Naval Command College for further study and learn contract tactical command. Senior commanding officers of the navy should go to the Supreme Military Academy of the People's Liberation Army in China to study combat command at the National Defense University of the People's Liberation Army.
