Assessments
What do I want to be or do?” Many students visit the career office looking for assistance in determining a major/program or deciding on a career path. To assist students in making the best possible decision for their individual circumstances, career counseling may begin with a conversation and/or assessments that are aimed at helping a student clarify their values, goals, skills, interests, personality preferences and personal or financial obligations.
The Career Development Office offers the Strong Interest Inventory and Myers-Briggs Type Indicator free of charge to current students to assist them in making career-related decisions. Please schedule an appointment with a career counselor to help determine if either of the assessments will be helpful for your particular situation.
Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI):
The MBTI is an assessment that may help you better understand your personality type and guide you towards careers that match with your personal strengths & attributes.
Strong Interest Inventory (SII):
The SII provides information about your interests which may help you to select coursework, a major or career path, or leisure activities that are personally rewarding.
