If you're unsure about which science interests you, don't worry. Science covers a lot of areas, each with its own focus:
- Biology deals with living things like animals, plants, and humans.
- Chemistry studies substances and their reactions, connecting different sciences.
- Physics explores energy, motion, and how the universe works.
- Environmental Science examines how humans interact with nature, focusing on sustainability.
- Geology/Earth Science involves rocks, weather, oceans, and Earth's history.
As you're considering PVAMU and choosing a major, there's no need to rush. Think about what excites you:
- Interested in animals or medicine? → Biology
- Enjoy experiments and chemical reactions? → Chemistry
- Love math and understanding movement? → Physics
- Care about the environment? → Environmental Science
Try taking some introductory classes, talk to professors, and meet students in those fields. Join clubs or volunteer in science activities. Often, you discover your interests by trying different things.
Which science class have you enjoyed the most so far? What did you like about it? This can help guide your choice of major.

Hi Mariah,
There's definitely a lot of different areas you could explore in science. It's such a broad field! I would start by maybe taking some free courses or reading books about particular subjects that interest you.
Some science paths you can take in college include healthcare, physics, biology, data science, computer science, and much more. So, if you're not sure where to start, check out a few of these fields and see what interests you the most.
Looking at PVAMU's website, I see they have several schools devoted to the sciences, engineering, and healthcare. You could definitely ask your advisor there what options you have for science degrees, or you can look at the website and explore what's available.
I found that when I was thinking of the area of science I'd like to choose, it made sense to focus on what I was already drawn to. I've been interested for a while in understanding human well-being and solving health-related problems, so Health Science ended up being the right choice for me. It took me time to figure that out, though, so don't worry if you need some reflection and experimenting before you find what's right for you.
I hope these tips help! Good luck in choosing your scientific path.
