{{Action quote|God and Mary ''must'' be with you!|Cadet Eoin Mac Liam, Stardate 85002}}
After graduation in 2406, Eoin enrolled in Advanced Training, to flesh out his Engineering skills as well as his more general scientific skills. He surprised everyone, including himself, when he was able to finish the program in only a year and a half, when most cadets take between two and three years to complete Advanced Training. The final, which everyone talks about as being absolutely dreadful, was very stressful on him, but he passed it with flying colours.

He graduated near the top of the class, and was posted to the [[USS Hades (NX-60637)|USS ''Hades'']] as an Assistant Chief Engineer. While waiting for the ''Hades'' to arrive, Eoin was assigned as a temporary engineer on [[Starbase Geneva (NCC-85745)|Starbase ''Geneva'']]. He left after approximately two weeks, and has since gone back to Earth for the ''Hades''' refit. In that time, he attended a reception for the Romulans in celebration of the new treaty signed between them and the Federation.

He also participated in the first contact mission with the [[Waagoshin]], [[Tch'Kairn]] and [[Niglik]] races. He was part of the away team invited aboard to tour the Waagoshin station in orbit of [[Tch'Kair]] in 2408. When he learned of the way the two latter races were treated, he hatched a plan to create a computer virus to use against the Waagoshin in order to help free them. Once the idea was proposed to the acting captain, Eoin was placed on the away team. He beamed down to the surface, and helped fight through to the transporter room to beam up to the station, and liberate both the slaves and the Starfleet hostages. The team got out most of them, but unfortunately lost the captain. Even still, he was awarded the Combat Action Ribbon for the part he played in the liberation of Tch'kair.

A few months later, the ''Hades'' was thrown forward in time by five years, to fall 2413. One of the first things Eoin did when this occured was to contact his family. They had taken his dissappearance very hard, and now considered him dead. Eoin has had a hard time dealing with this revelation, and won't be reconciled with his family until he returns to Earth.
