Major and Career Exploration
Our Academic Advising Center is here to support all students—whether you’ve already chosen a major or are still exploring your options. We are committed to helping you discover a degree path that aligns with your interests, strengths, and goals.
Through one-on-one conversations, major exploration tools, interactive workshops, and collaboration with campus career services, we guide you through the decision-making process in a thoughtful and personalized way.
We use resources like the Me3 major and career platform, along with a variety of assessment and inventory tools, to help you better understand who you are and what careers may be a good fit for your personality, work preferences, and lifestyle expectations.
Although this is a student-led journey, you’ll never have to navigate it alone. You'll have the opportunity to review and reflect on your results with a dedicated advisor who listens and provides personalized guidance. And when you're ready to move forward, our team will support you through the next steps—from declaring a major to planning your academic path.
Explore yourself – your interest, what you like, what you don’t like, what others find interesting about you and more.
