EOP Visit Week 6

On Monday of week 6 of FSSP, I decided to visit EOP to talk to them about my major, classes, and my career of choice. The representative that I was speaking was named Jorge and he helped with what type of classes I needed to take for fall to satisfy my requirements before graduation. He said that I was on track and that FSSP will help me get ahead in the courses that I need to take. Furthermore, I asked him about what major I should declare myself in order to satisfy my career of choice. Initially I wanted to major in molecular biology so I can fulfill my career of becoming a medical researcher. The first question he asked me was that what type of research I was looking into. I told him that there really isn't anything specific I want to work with. I told him that I would like to experiment on different diseases, for example, to find cures for them. As a result, he decided to use the search engine on the UCSB campus site and look for the different links that would help me determine my major when the time comes. While spending some time on the site, I was surprised about the different links that the website gave us.

Furthermore, he mentioned a different major that I've never heard of. Its known as Molecular Engineering and it's new major that UCSB opened. I will be looking more into that major and hopefully I'll have on in mind by the time Junio year comes.
