We’ve reached our destination…. Week 5

Hello Everyone! Hope you’ve all had a great week and I’m sure you’re all pretty stoked about spring break. This is week 5 of our blog and it’s going to be our last entry. We all wanted to say it was awesome meeting you all and hearing about you and what you all hope to aspire to in the near future. :)

We all know that being an interdisciplinary student has its challenges and obstacles to overcome, however how has this blog helped you in any way? We’ve discussed different goals you all hope to achieve, ways to improve your resumes as well as how to see your focuses and majors in different lights. Now we want to hear a little bit from you about what you learned.

Has this blog in anyway enlightened you and your way of seeing this degree? Think about what you hope to be and how these focuses and majors will help get you there. Do you believe that having classes in these different areas will help you in landing your dream job? How has being an interdisciplinary student helped you thus far in your classes this semester? Hopefully these questions will come easy to you. I know it starts to get rough trying to see how all aspects of this degree will help you, however once you discover the beauty of it’s diverseness is when you start to realize how beneficial it really is to be an Interdisciplinary student.

I’ve been fortunate enough to land an amazing job and I haven’t even graduated, I have 2 months left! However my employer found it very beneficial to him and his company when I told him about my degree. I made sure to know exactly what focuses pertained to him and the company and I sold my best attributes to him. I embraced my wide range of knowledge and made him understand why we wanted me on his team. I wouldn’t have been able to do any of this if it wasn’t for the fact that I knew how to explain what my degree was. The more you discuss it the more comfortable you are with it and trust me, confidence shows. We wish you all nothing but luck in your future classes here at UCF! Enjoy it, make an effort to get involved and GO KNIGHTS!!!
