VIRTUAL CAREER EXPLORATION RESOURCES

More than 50% of all college students are undecided and 75% change their major at least once.

Realize that a college major doesn’t define what you will be doing the “rest of your life” or, for most majors, lead directly to a career. Your career is a process built through your education and external experiences through working, internships, volunteering, and networking.
