How were My Majors calculated?

The MyMajors assessment is a knowledge-based program developed by Dr. Fritz Grupe, Professor Emeritus from the University
of Nevada, Reno. The results are based on four key measures to find the right program for you:

Academic Achievement
You have completed and enjoyed courses that are vital to that degree program.

Aptitude
Your ability to thrive and enroll in the degree program at a college and university.

Interests
Do you enjoy the activities and tasks associated with this major?

Personality
Do your emotional and psychological strengths and weaknesses collaborate with this major?

"MyMajors is designed to emulate a human academic advisor. The program recommends actual college and university
majors (not general categories or personality types). MyMajors is not a psychological or personality instrument. It takes
into account a student's academic abilities and personal interests to create a successful plan to become college and
career ready."

My Recommended Majors
50% of students change their major at least once. This list of majors will help you stay prepared to declare your major and
prepare for the future.

1. 1. Accounting (your score: 568)

Accounting provides the means for organizing, summarizing and interpreting information about economic activities within
companies and organizations. Managers, lenders, analysts, and investors use this information. Accountants play a critical
and ever-changing role in this process by providing relevant information to decision-makers and by acting as advisors in its
interpretation. Accountants are needed within business organizations to provide information to business managers and to
control business operations. Accountants can also work independently of businesses as public accountants providing
management services, taxation advice and independent audit service, which lend credibility to financial and other information.

Student Profile:
Accounting majors enjoy business mathematics and the role accounting systems play in a modern business or
governmental agency. Accounting requires an in-depth knowledge of how accounting systems are structured and
implemented. Understanding these systems requires an ability to focus on details, remember the many federal and state
laws that control such systems, and a broader view of how business organizations function. Accounting courses present an
above average challenge in the amount of work they require. The accounting firms that hire many, but certainly not all of
these majors, seek students with a high grade point averages. Accounting majors may enjoy reading business magazines
or articles, politics, learn strategies for business success, and apply mathematics to practical problems.

Potential Careers:
Accountant, Credit Manager, Purchasing Agent, Public Accountant, Economist, Tax Accountant, Computer Systems
Analyst, FBI Agent, Tax Attorney, Controller, IRS Agent

2. 2. Public Communications (your score: 557)

Public communications is often thought of as public relations or mass communications. Public communication graduates
communicate with a broad scope of people, through public speaking, TV, radio, newspaper, and every other form of mass
media. Public communication is the idea of expressing an idea to many people at the same time. Public communications
can center a small audience or a large crowd, a TV camera or a radio. All organizations, public and private, must maintain
effective relationships with a wide variety of groups and individuals. These relationships require thoughtful use of print and
spoken word. Consequently, public communications students study how information is communicated to many segments of
society, including consumers, government officials, community organizations, employees, investors and the media. They
learn how to assist their organizations in structuring public opinion and in addressing the organization’s social
responsibilities. They learn how to frame messages and communication strategies in ways that mutually benefit their
organizations and the public.

Student Profile:
Students who are not afraid of public speaking would be good in this field. Many students have a fear of public speaking, so
not everyone is comfortable in this major. This is a field where students will be in constant interaction with people. Public
relations people may have to perform "damage control." A student must consider the implications of dealing with people
constantly.

Broadcaster, Corporate Communications Specialist, Governmental Communications Specialist

communication establishes means with which to understand, evaluate, and improve the process of human communication

as others' communicative behavior. It allows them to become more effective communicators in their personal and
professional lives.
