Job Opportunity Potential

Understanding yourself is the first step to identifying an appropriate major/career. It is important to choose a professional path that aligns with your interests, skills, values and personality! The Counselors at the Center for Career Development are equipped with the tools and resources to help you explore your interests and relate them to an applicable major/profession.

Choosing a major can be one of the biggest decisions that you will make throughout your college career. It is important to understand that choosing a major does not bind you to a specific career for life. For instance, if you choose to major in Psychology, it does not necessarily mean you have to be a Psychologist. A college degree is a foundation that you can build off of, and each position is a stepping stone to your ultimate goal. Explore your major/career options to identify entry-level positions, salary, advancement opportunities, etc. Be sure to fully understand what it means to major in a particular area!

Career Advisement appointments are available for counselors to meet with students on a one-on-one basis to discuss individual needs and goals, as well to develop an effective “action plan” on how to reach those goals.
