Majors & Career Exploration

Take time to explore your interests, skills, personality, and values. You can also ask friends, family members, teachers, or mentors if they see the same qualities in you as you see in yourself. A self-assessment simply means asking yourself the following questions: What subjects did I enjoy in high school? What do I like to do? What activities do I find motivating, fun, interesting and enjoyable? What skills and abilities do I have or want to develop? What personal style or characteristics do I have that is important to me in the work place? What purpose or goal do I want to accomplish in my career?

The CSDS offers many resources that can help you clarify your interests, gifts, and talents. If you have not declared a major or found a career of interest, consider meeting with a staff member to further explore your areas of interest and career possibilities. If you are looking for basic information regarding majors and classes required, schedule an appointment with your academic advisor.
