Re: Looking for a college major

Honestly, I'd contact NJIT and try to speak with an adviser. Even though you're not yet a student, you may well be surprised at how helpful advisers can be.

Especially at NJIT and the like though, there are a lot (no really, a lot) of choices. Moreover, names can sometimes be deceiving, especially if you're not completely sure what you're looking for. I'd recommend clicking through the majors/concentrations & minors lists and looking through the curriculum/student outcomes.

Do remember to keep an open mind though, and remember that we sometimes focus on what we know we like rather than what might be even more interesting. Especially with a few years of community college to go, there's nothing that says you need to choose right now. (Case-point: The first class my mother took in college was biology for non-STEM majors. She's now an Ivy League veterinarian with a masters in statistics.)
