Theoretically your career should start in college.

I know that many people don't end up in the same field that they studied in college. However, the goal of college is to teach specialization to a field. This is why there are narrow majors such as engineering disciplines [mechanical, civil, computer], business disciplines [accounting, management, finance, marketing], education, etc.. Maybe this should be aimed a little lower to high school seniors/college freshmen, so it will set them up on the career path to pursue once they graduate.

Just my 2 cents.

Edit: grammar
