We know this is a lot of responsibility, but we are here to support students in learning to find their major and degrees needed for their career choices.

Student's Role in Exploring Careers & Majors

2. Explore your career interest by participating in activities and workshops.

3. Learn about the education level required for careers that interest you.

4. Learn about the different college majors connected to your career of interest.

Connecting Majors and Careers with a Degree
What is a Degree?

A qualification awarded to students after completing the requirements for a specific course of study. The type of degree you pursue will often be dictated by your major and/or career choice.

Degrees are divided both by discipline and the level of study. In terms of degree levels, students can pursue associate, bachelor, master, and doctoral degrees, and often they choose to progress from one to the next over several years.
