Choosing a major is a big decision, that for many, requires research to ensure it is an appropriate fit for one’s strengths, goals, and needs. The Career Center offers resources that allow for self-exploration and awareness so that you can move at your own, informed pace.
The Focus 2 Self-Assessment is a great first step in exploring a major or career path. At the end of each assessment, you are given a list of career options that match your results. Remember, the results are just career areas to explore. We recommend that you schedule an appointment to speak with a Career Counselor to discuss results and create a plan for next steps.
