For most American universities, students can choose their major within one or two years, which is called "elective course". During this period, students can choose different courses to explore their interests and accept the foundation of general subject knowledge. During this period, students can use elective courses to understand the basic knowledge of various majors and their own interests.

In the process of choosing a major, we need to consider the direction of future employment. Computer major is indeed a very popular industry, but it is not suitable for everyone to choose. Meanwhile, computer technology is also very important in the field of media and data analysis.

Therefore, in universities, students can broaden their horizons by taking courses. The choice of computer and media courses can be determined according to your own interests and career planning.

If you are interested in computers, we encourage you to consider taking courses related to computer majors, which will provide you with practical, valuable and in-depth experience. However, it is not excluded to take some media-related courses that complement career development.

If you really like media, you can also study some courses related to media, media technology and data analysis while studying computer courses. These courses can increase your knowledge background and skills, thus laying a solid foundation for future career development.

However, it should be reminded that attention should be paid to elective courses. You need to meet the elective requirements of each major. Different schools, different majors, elective courses and credit requirements are different. So you need to keep close contact with your college and professional consultants to make sure that the courses you study meet the requirements.
