Hey klogd,
Nice to meet you, I'm Aleks. I was minmatar in EVE and mainly dealt with hit and run type tactics so intelligence felt like a better fit for me because I like small heavy hitting ships and want to deal with the espionage & spying side of things.
Tactical is more focused on space ship v ship combat (namely pvp) where MACO is traditional more ground based offense but still combat minded. Science will definitely be more of a support role and intelligence will be more a fleet escort and combat reserves/support role. Hope that helps clear things up. Hope you decide to join the fleet. I have just been here a short while and really enjoy the people and you'll have plenty of EU mates to play with in game and chat with until launch.
I don't think the combat will be nearly as elaborate in STO as it is in Eve, with all the intel, trapping, gate camping, strategy, etc.. Will espionage, spying and recon missions be a part of STO like it is in Eve?
Regarding Tactical vs MACO, I was under the impression that most missions in STO will be a combination of Space combat + ground combat? So will it be possible to specialize in one of them?
