Hi! I'm Ada, and I was previously a computer science major, but I changed to Interdisciplinary Studies earlier this year. I chose UCF for a number of reasons: It was local and affordable, most of the rest of my family went here (so I was pretty familiar with the campus already), and I knew it had a great computer science program. However, computer science is no longer my major focus. I've been running a small art business for the last couple years, and my post-graduation goal is to turn this business into a full-time career. Changing majors to IDS served a dual purpose: it allowed me to pursue other academic interests than computer science (like anthropology and linguistics, both of which are major passions of mine) and it allowed me to graduate much more quickly than I could have if I stuck exclusively with computer science. I will most likely continue taking classes after graduation (perhaps getting a certification in Technical Writing or Gender Studies) but I would like to devote myself to my business full-time starting next year.
