Technical: Aerospace Engineering, Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and related academic majors.
Business: Accounting, Business Administration, Economics, Finance, Management, Communications, Journalism, Marketing, Public Administration, and related academic majors
