How do you know what career path you want to take after college more specifically than just your major? I am sure that I want to go into some career related to mechanical engineering but there are a lot of paths to take.

As a high school student from Bangladesh, how do I know what is the right major for me when I've barely been exposed to any?
I'm a 10th grader, highly interested in Computer Science and technology. I was interested in creating sustainable and environment friendly tech. But, I can't seem to figure out if it's the right choice for me, especially in the current world where automation is threatening to replace many jobs related to this major. And looking at my other academic interests, which mostly includes STEM(minus medicine), I'm having a hard time understanding what I should choose. Engineering? But what type of engineering? Biology? Both my parents graduated from biology background so it has always fascinated but then again, what exactly? My parents do jobs that are totally different from their field of study now, so I've never really known what it's like to be STEM major or a STEM professional. I thought CS was it for me, but dreams aren't enough. As someone with a middle class background, I have to take into consideration scope, jobs, and pay too.
If I want to be an aerospace engineer or a physicist is it worth it to get two bachelor's degrees (one in physics and one in engineering) Or would it be better to get one bachelor's degree and one graduate degree??
I am a sophomore in college at a liberal arts school that has the option of a 3+2 dual degree engineering program.
Should I pursue a career in finance or graphic design?
I like finance and graphic design equally. Finance can be a little be challenging and need a lot of math classes in order to get that degree. For graphic design, i thought it might be easier since it’s creative performance and stuff. Finance positions does pay a lot more than graphic designer. But I’m not sure if I will like finance in the future, because it can also be a very boring job of just processing numbers and stuff. Additionally, do you know what college that is suitable for graphic design and what college for finance major in areas in or near New York City (Includes Long Island)? Maybe even a college within those areas that have both majors.
