Choosing your majorChoosing your major can feel like a very difficult process - as if you're choosing what you will do for the rest of your life. In reality, choosing a major and choosing a career are NOT necessarily the same thing. Choose your major based primarily on what you enjoy learning and what coursework will bring out your best work. Selecting a major based on these criteria will most likely lead to success and personal satisfaction in your career. Remember that employers are more interested in the transferable skills you bring to the job than your major. Transferable skills, like communication, leadership, and teamwork are usually acquired through internships, work experience and from obtaining a liberal arts degree.
