Self-Assessment Tools

What is "self-assessment?" In order to decide on a major or identify career options, it is helpful to know some things about yourself. What are your interests (likes and dislikes)? What is important to you or do you value in a future career? What skills do you have or want to develop further? And how do these relate to different majors and careers? Some great tools that can help you assess yourself are provided here.

FOCUS is an in-depth career exploration tool that lets you take interest, skills and values inventories and learn more about careers and majors. When you complete the checklists in the Self-Assessment section, FOCUS provides a report to you and to the career center for further exploration.

You will create your own username and password. Once you are registered, you can log in and out of FOCUS at any time to complete additional sections or research career and major information.

We highly recommend that the results of any activity you do be discussed with a career center staff member, who can help you best understand the information and use it to help you narrow down your options.
