Choosing majors and careers can be challenging. That's why we have so many resources devoted to helping you with this process.

Many students are often unclear about the relationship between majors and careers. While there are a few exceptions like engineering, nursing, or teaching, most majors don’t have a direct path to a particular job. One major can lead to many different careers.

If you're feeling stuck, the advice in this section may be helpful.

Totally clueless?

Do a Career Assessment to create a starting point.
