Career Choice

Career Choice For Intended Major

Do you know what field you are interested in studying? Knowing what is going to happen after graduation is a decision not to be taken lightly. Doing some research about different careers that are interesting to you is a great way to start. Examples are health services or education. If so, then do you have a major in mind? Examples are nursing (RN) or elementary teacher. If you don't know, then there are a couple things you can do. Doing a self-assessment to learn more about what your strengths and interests are is a great place to start.

Occupational Outlook Handbook is a free resource that anyone can use to help figure out what careers and interests you have.

Another option is Career Cruising. 

Once you have a better idea about what career path you want to take, then it will come in handy during the actual college searching. If you still don't have any idea, or maybe are interested in many majors, you can apply to college as an Undecided Major. This tells the college that you want to take the general education courses, such as English, Math, Speech, and then try out different elective classes to explore what careers are out there.
