Career Exploration - Current Students
Find Your MajorTypically, your college major does not train you for a single, specific job. Instead, it seeks to develop your aptitude and abilities so that you can use them in the broadest variety of careers. That is why it is important to choose a major that allows your individual talents to flourish. Undergraduate education is not so much a determinant of what you want to be, as much as what you are preparing to become.
The Career Development assists current FHSU student through this process with the following services:
