College and Career Plans
22 August 2019
First Career Goal
My dream for my final life job is to be the CEO of a big company that is extremely successful. I want to double major in business management along with computer engineering but I would need to inquire more about the world and discover more about the world and what interests me. I believe that I have the leadership skills to want to do so and running a large company of my own would just be amazing. I’m aware that this is a very complex and tough goal to achieve. Lots of hard work and dedication would be needed for this career and being able to grow into what I hope I will be able to create in the future.
First College Plan
College for this career goal is to be a figment of time until I figure out my idea that I’d want to start my business on. I have no specific college in mind but I hope to be inspired by the school and also have enough time to myself to think to ponder about what my creation will be. My plan for college is going to a community college near home to save money for any investments I plan on going through within search of starting my business, then after transferring to another college double majoring in business management and computer engineering. By the time I transfer to another college after the one at community college, I plan to already have my idea in mind for my business and will act upon it after two more years have passed there and have obtained a four-year degree in the two majors. Once I’ve reached that point, with my four-year and my business idea planned out, I will pursue my dream of running my own business/company and start growing it with the knowledge I’ve gained.
Backup Career Goal
My fallback plan is continuing to double major in business management and computer engineering and become a computer engineer. Whether or not my first career plan goes straight to me working on my own business, I still find lots of interest in these two subjects and would like to learn more about them to become accelerated in those areas. Something I want to learn in both majors is the lives of the individuals that are pursuing the same major as me. I’d be able to feel how the atmospheres of the two majors clash, mix, and perform against and with each other. It’ll be two different environments for me and I feel that I need to be exposed to things that contrast and show me different aspects of two careers I’m extremely interested in.
Backup College Plan
The college I’d be going to for this pathway, would still be a community college and after two years, transfer to another college with the hopes of getting into a UC or an Ivy League, but I also would be happy to go to SJSU because both their business management and computer engineering programs are highly rated along with it being close to my hometown, and would cost less. I will be staying at that college to achieve my master's degree in my majors. All in all, my main goal for college is to build the foundation and flourish my mindset for the rest of my future, and as time follows closer into the abyss of choosing colleges, I’ll have a clearer idea of how and what to do when it comes to choosing a college that would provide the correct education for me.
