Explore Industries

career-options

Choosing a career can be even harder than choosing a major.

Many students haven’t been exposed to very many fields before coming to college. We find that most students can list only about 15 different careers, but there are hundreds! Expand that knowledge by doing some research.

Explore careers within different industries with "Industry Insights"

It can be helpful to research careers by thinking about the kinds of industries you are interested in. You can enter many industries with multiple kinds of degrees. For example, if working in the technology industry really interests you, but you don't want to be a software engineer, you could enter that industry by working as a Human Resource Manager for a software company.

Industry Insights provide steps to determine if an industry is right for you. Click the links below to get started.
