Exploring UNI Majors & Careers

Exploring majors is a process. In addition to working closely with your academic advisor, you can begin to research options on your own!

Take A Self-Assessment

The Office of Academic Advising works closely with students to take self-assessments and interpret the results to assist in the major exploration process.

Career Cruising - a free, online assessment to help you identify your skills and interests and connect those with majors and careers.
World of Work - this free tool helps you determine if you prefer to work with people, things, ideas, or data and connect this with possible careers.
Strong Inventory (Holland Codes) - this $16 in-depth assessment interest inventory helps you understand your interests and identify possible career paths based on your personality. You will receive a comprehensive results report that an academic advisor will review with you during an individual appointment. Contact our office to begin!
