Identify the major for the career you want

The first step in planning for your education is to identify a career that is right for you. If you are still exploring careers, the advisors in Advising & Career Resources can help with career exploration services. They can help you discover:

• The types of careers that fit your interests, values, and goals.
• The type of education you need to pursue a career that is a good match for you.
• How many years of schooling are required to earn that degree.
• The types of courses you can expect to take to earn that degree.

The UWHelp Majors and Careers offers ways to match your interests and skills with majors and careers. You can even explore a particular major in the context of the skills you wish to use by using the College Major Validator.
