Career and Education Research

My plan for the future is to get a Civil Engineering degree with a specialization in Environmental Engineering from the University of Michigan. My hopes for a career with that degree is an environmental engineer or environmentalist. My work ethics survey didn't really guide me to any one career. I pretty much knew what I wanted to do and the survey just told me what skills I had. My career cluster did match what I want to do, especially since I had a three-way tie. I was bound to go into one of the clusters! The main selling point of the career I want to go into is that I can get a degree to do that job from a college in Michigan. I didn't really want to go out of state. It just costs more and Michigan has good colleges. I chose the University of Michigan because it seemed to have a more developed CEE (Civil and Environmental Engineering) program. University of Wisconsin was smaller and it was also out of state. Honestly, I do see myself in the scenario I have created. I do see myself graduating from the University of Michigan and getting a job with my CEE degree. I think that it is a very possible outcome of the next stage of my life.
