As a high school student interested in politics, history, geography, city government, etc. What could be a good major/career path for me?

I am not really sure what major I want to go into for college. I know I could do political science but I just don't see that being a gateway into a career (correct me if I'm wrong). If there is a major/career in that sphere I would love to know what that would be. I was thinking law but I'm...

How do academic successes and challenges, combined with significant personal experiences, act as catalysts in shaping an individual's aspirations for higher education and their ultimate career goals?

Past experiences, encompassing both academic and personal endeavors, play a crucial role in molding aspirations for higher education and future career paths. These experiences act as catalysts by shaping our interests, equipping us with valuable skills, and clarifying our core values.

Hello! I hope everyone reading this is doing well. I am currently a sophomore at the University of Connecticut studying Biomedical Engineering. I am planning my future schedules and want advice in choosing a concentration and minor. My school requires BME majors to select a concentration. I am torn between the two concentrations; Biomechanics & Mechanobiology (first conc.) and Systems, Imaging, & Instrumentation (second conc.). I am also looking into minoring in Electronics and Systems, and most of the courses required to complete this minor overlap with the Systems, Imaging, & Instrumentation concentration. Electronics and systems has been something that I have been interested in for a while, so this pair is calling out to me the most as of late. This past summer, I participated in a practicum where I explored both bio-signals and biomechanics. During this practicum, I was able to build a 3D printed robotic hand while investigating various methods of body-machine interfacing for prosthetic control. Most of the work I focused on was working with flex sensors (which we made) and making things like an instrumentation amplifier, an active band pass, and full rectifier, which were used to make an electromyograph. This experience reignited my passions and curiosity for both biomechanics and bio-signals. This is why I am torn between both concentrations, and which to pair with minor I’m interested in. So, the options I have made for myself are; Biomechanics & Mechanobiology concentration paired with Electronics & Systems major OR Systems, Imaging, & Instrumentation paired with the Electronics & Systems major. I am also wondering on which pair would be the most beneficial for me in industry post-graduation. Any advice helps. Thank you in advance!

Any Advice?

I love writing and am interested in pursuing it, but I'm unsure what my future would look like if I took writing seriously, and I don't want to make the wrong choice.

I love writing personal essays and stories, but what kind of career can I make out of that? I also love to cook / bake, but its always been a hobby. Now I'm not sure if I should think about taking it more seriously. I don't want to waste time by making the wrong decision about what I want to do.

I am a high school student wondering about what career would be open for me. I like programming and computer science but I've heard that the job market is bad because so many people are interested in that kind of career and AI is taking jobs.

What sort of advice would you give to someone who is looking to work with sick children if that person is very sensitive; regardless of that weakness, they have a strong passion and love for kids and that’s the only career they see themselves with for the long term?

For context this person wants to pursue a doctorate in the field.

"If our world values art, kindness, innovation, and nature’s beauty, why do we still judge students mostly by their grades What other qualities should matter just as much?"#Spring25

In a world full of natural beauty and endless human creativity, it doesn’t make sense to judge students just by grades. A test score doesn’t show someone’s imagination, kindness, or how hard they try when no one’s looking. Real success isn’t something you can measure with numbers. Like a tree...
