Support college major selection for high school students by using the Machine Learning algorithm

Abstract: Nowadays, choosing a specialization is a crucial decision for students, especially in determining their career path. Decision-making is an essential life skill that involves gathering information, generating alternatives, evaluating options, and reaching a decision. This research design for students at the final stage of secondary school to assist them in choosing their desired discipline of study. The research will use the Support Vector Machine (SVM) to examine the criteria for selecting university specialties that are best suited for each student's needs, interests, and strengths. It will also provide a chance for students to explore potential outcomes and opportunities associated with those specialties, helping them make informed decisions that will shape their future. Understanding the different steps in the decision-making process will help students make informed choices that will shape their future.

Keywords: Specialization, Students, Decision, University, Future, SVM.
