Hey guys, so right now I'm deciding what I want to major in when I get to college, I'm positive it's going to be along the lines of technology but I don't know what I want to major in specifically and I was wondering could I get some help.

Here's what I was thinking of:

Nanotechnology

Assistive technology

Environmental technology

Information technology

Energy technology

What should I do?

There's really no right or wrong answer.  If you end up in a high paying job but hate every minute of it, you're going to be pretty miserable.  On the other hand, you may likely be much happier in a lesser paying job if you love the field.  You need to find the area that interests you the most, and then put your energy into that.  None of us will know what that field is.  Your best bet is to simply research every aspect of each field you've compiled and then sort through each and every aspect.  Order the fields by personal preference, and go from there.

 

Edit: It should go without saying but you will want to include job security as one aspect to examine.  It would suck to spend years specialising in a field when it becomes antiquated and obsolete 3 years after you enter it.  While I highly doubt that would be an issue for a technology field, keep that in mind.

Well...My dad teaches at a local community college (he teaches many IT classes) But I would think IT security would be the funnest out of all of them, trying to trick the hackers/coders/jerks who make the viruses and things.

 

Or you could take classes in college that could help you get into the NSA and you can spy on all the fellow Americans

When looking for my job, I want a field in where I can help people not just one genre, but in general, that's the kind of job I'm looking for along these fields and other sub fields, but I'm still not sure of what it could be, still researching, to what mastertropper said, in my opinion I find working for the NSA to be a waste of my time simply because I don't want to sit at a desk all day going through random emails.
