Im a straight A student who loves stem related subjects, what are some cool majors i should consider?
Answered

Since 6th grade I've wanted to be a math major/mathematician, but starting this year I've also began considering psych. however, i've always loved science and definitely want to do something stem related, and was wondering what some other good/cool/interesting stem majors are. I'm taking ap chem this year and love it, it's hard but exciting, and next year i'll me in ap psych, calc and physics, so i could definitely handle a harder course and enjoy a more rigorous path. so pretty much what are some majors that are stem/sciencey besides that are cool and something i should consider/enjoy that i might have never heard about?

Hello!

I'd say that potential majors are dictated by the specific areas of STEM that you're interested in. If you want to pursue a career in chemistry, you could consider:

-General Chemistry

-Environmental Chemistry

-Analytical Chemistry

-Biochemistry

-Forensic Chemistry

or

-Geologic Chemistry

If you're interested in an engineering/physics career, you might consider:

-Chemical Engineering

-Civil Engineering

-Mechanical Engineering

-General Physics

-Astrophysics

-Chemical Physics

or

-Engineering Physics

If you want to learn more about the human mind, I'd recommend:

-Psychology

-Neuroscience

-Engineering Psychology

or

-Sociology

Of course, all of these pathways have math involved, but if you want a more math-heavy major, try:

-Statistics

-Computer Science

-General Mathematics

or

-Applied Mathematics

Hope this is helpful! Have a great day!

Pretty much any engineering course is very STEM-related. If you want a lot of math, then Civil, Mechanical, and Biological Engineering are in that field.
