I have majors or careers in mind, what’s my next
step?
Good for you, you’re making progress! Keep in mind the major
you pick does not necessarily equal career choice. In fact, most
employers are less concerned with your choice of major and are more
interested in the skills you’ve developed through coursework,
campus involvement, and volunteer and internship experience.
