Abstract
This research project is a qualitative multiple-case study that examines the experiences of English major students as they transition from campus to their professional careers. The study incorporates in-depth interviews with three participants and their respective informants to gain a comprehensive understanding of how family commitments impact the educational and career paths of these students during this critical juncture. The research aims to fill a gap in the literature by focusing on the experiences of English major students and the role of family commitments in shaping their educational and career paths. The study is informed by previous research that suggests that family commitments can significantly influence a student's ability to pursue their academic and career goals. By exploring the experiences of English major students, the study seeks to shed light on the ways in which these commitments impact the transition from campus to career. The study's findings will contribute to our understanding of the challenges that English major students face when transitioning from campus to career, particularly in the context of family commitments. The study will also provide insights into the ways in which students navigate these challenges and the strategies they use to balance their academic and career goals with their family commitments.
