Master chief is a spartain. A spartain is a super soldier
EDIT: a spartan is not a just any person with a gun but on halo Spartans are the guys in armor like masterchief the main players on halo reach are Spartans, all Spartans have a number, if u play halo3 or reach on xbox you will see that you can change your nav point number that is above your head when playing co-op or online that players can see (you cant see your own) for eg. masterchief's spartan number is 117 -hope this answers your question- *edit by pwnd twice*
YET ANOTHER EDIT: There are two SPARTAN projects: SPARTAN II & SPARTAN III
The SPARTAN IIs derived from the ORION supersoldier project. Although spartans usually wear Mjolnir armor, they do not have to. It's like puting on clothes when going out.

Master Chief is not in Halo Wars. However, there are three main Spartan IIs in Halo Wars and Spartan IIs who are unnamed that you can train for your army.
Spartan 117 is a super soldier of Halo and he's name is john.
The Master Chief is a Spartan II. All of the Spartans from Halo: Reach (excluding Jorge) are Spartan III's. Also, there is no such thing as a Spartan I in the Halo universe. They were called ORION soldiers. After the ORION Project failed, Dr. Halsey made modifications to it and renamed the Spartan II Project.
