Career Exploration
If you have not declared a major or are unsure what type of career you would like to pursue, you may want to consider some self-assessment tools.
Assessment tools such as the Career Occupational Preference System Interest Inventory, the Career Exploration Inventory, and Myers-Briggs Type Indicator help you examine your interests, skills, and values in various career fields. To take an assessment and interpret your results, contact Julie Chappell.
