The fastest and most accurate career compass for middle and high school students in the natural sciences

If you asked middle and high school students to name the science departments they know, how many would they be able to name? Even within the sciences, there are a variety of departments to choose from, depending on aptitude, talent, and interests. Yet, most students only vaguely know a few representative ones.
No one can dream of what he does not know.
This book divides promising majors in the natural sciences into 8 fields and 100 categories, and introduces related departments for each field, expanding students' world of dreams even further.
Select a field or department you've always been interested in, read the introduction to the department, the subjects studied, and the aptitudes and interests required. Then, review the related and adjacent departments in the mind map.
Especially in the natural sciences, the pace of change is very fast, so it is important for students to understand the identity of their department in a three-dimensional way and find their own direction.
If you use the information in this book as a compass to set your own career path and begin preparing for college early, you can realize your dream future sooner than others.


In preparation for the high school credit system, which will be fully implemented in 2025, elective courses linked to each department are included.
The high school credit system will be fully implemented nationwide starting in 2025.
In the comprehensive student admissions process for rolling admissions, selecting appropriate subjects related to the major has become a major evaluation criterion.
Therefore, it has become important to choose subjects that are not simply chosen by many other students and likely to result in good grades, but subjects that fit one's interests and aptitude, that allow one to demonstrate integrated capabilities, and that are related to the department one wishes to pursue.
In particular, since hierarchy is important in science subjects, you must first complete general elective subjects (physics, chemistry, life sciences, earth sciences) to establish a hierarchy by taking related career elective subjects (mechanics and energy, matter and energy, cells and metabolism, earth system science, etc.) in the following semester.
This book organizes the elective courses required to advance to the department into general, career, and convergence categories according to hierarchy.
This book was written with reference to the 《High School Subject Selection Guide》 distributed by the Office of Education, the 2028 Academic Year Major Linked Subject Guide (Seoul National University, Kyunghee University), feedback from middle and high school science teachers who reviewed this book in advance, and the curriculum of university departments. Rather than confusing students by listing too many subjects,
It focuses on core mathematics, science, technology, and home economics/information.
This allows students to explore their career path and easily identify the courses they need to take.


A comprehensive guide to college and career paths that provides comprehensive information not only to students but also to parents and teachers.
Even at this moment, many students are thinking about "where would be beneficial to go" before thinking about "what I like."
In an age where career paths are reduced to specifications and the future is evaluated solely on grades, what should parents and teachers tell their students?

This book is a sincere answer to that question.
In particular, we provide core information and practical guidance for career planning, focusing on promising future departments in the natural world, such as IT, SW, AI (artificial intelligence), construction, electricity, food, cooking, life, resources, environment, energy, pure science, engineering, and medicine.
Beyond simply listing department information, it systematically explains which interests and aptitudes students have for which departments, what specific preparations they should make, and what fields they can pursue after graduation. This makes it a valuable guide for teachers and parents seeking career guidance and counseling resources.


Middle and high school students should not be afraid of failure, but rather actively seek out what they want to do by gaining experience related to their interests and challenging themselves in various activities.
I hope that through this book, students' fears about the future will be transformed into hope and anticipation, and that their specific knowledge of future majors will lead to a strong motivation to pursue further studies and practical learning.
