Janice Rand is a fictional character who appeared in the first season of the TV series Star Trek: The Original Series. She was portrayed by actress Grace Lee Whitney.

Rand served as Captain James T. Kirk's yeoman and was seen for about six episodes during the first season of the series. Her character was then cut for budgetary reasons.

Yeoman Rand was a young attractive woman, someone whom Kirk was sure to notice, but whose attraction to whom he could not acknowledge due to his position as her superior officer. Rand was attracted to Kirk as well, and, in the episode Miri, admitted that she occasionally tried to get the Captain to "notice her legs".

Rand later served as the Enterprise Transporter Chief in Star Trek: The Motion Picture. She was later seen serving at Star Fleet Command during Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home. Still later, she served on the U.S.S. Excelsior under Captain Hikaru Sulu in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country and in the Star Trek: Voyager episode, "Flashback."
