Deciding on a Major - Need Help!

So, I'm pretty clueless right now. Is there a comprehensive list somewhere of college majors and the careers they can lead to? I've got a ton of interests but don't know what would be practical in the real world.

You're definitely not alone in feeling unsure about what major to choose. Many students have a wide range of interests and find it challenging to narrow them down. When considering majors and the careers they can lead to, it might be helpful to know that many careers do not require a specific major. This is especially true for fields outside of the technical or specialized ones like engineering or nursing.

In terms of finding a comprehensive list of college majors and potential career paths, there isn't a single exhaustive list given the vast combination of majors and careers out there. However, there are a few tools and platforms you might find helpful.

For example, many universities have a 'Majors' or 'Programs of Study' page on their websites which offers a list of all the majors they offer and often, what careers you might pursue with those majors. You could also consider using the online tools at the US Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Outlook Handbook. This resource allows you to explore various careers, find out the typical level of education required, and even check the projected growth for those jobs.

Additionally, you could consider using the CollegeVine tool where they have information about hundreds of colleges and universities, including details about majors offered and outcome data for graduates. Remember though, choosing a major shouldn't just be about what is immediately practical or expected to lead to a high income. It should also align with your interests, passion, and natural strengths as these will sustain you through your college studies and into your career.
