Start with curiosity. Build a direction.

Connect what you enjoy learning with the work you may want to do.

List the activities that energise you and the problems you enjoy solving. Look for patterns across subjects, projects and experiences.

Explore course content alongside real job descriptions and conversations with people in the field. A degree can open options, but it does not guarantee a particular career.

Treat your first plan as a working hypothesis. Use projects, reading and practical experience to test your interests before making a commitment.
