Talk to an adviser, someone at the college's career center, tell them what you're interested in and they will help you find a major and a career that fits your interests. Otherwise considering your interests, major in mechanical engineering and work in the automotive industry.

IT is a great field.

Either go the software route aka CIS or CS degrees which will get you jobs such as a developer, front-end/back end technician, etc or go the hardware route which is more support roles starting at help desk usually and moving on to desktop support, system administrator, network support etc.

There are plenty of hybrid roles as well, if you go the MIS route you could end up anywhere depending on what you learn in school or own your own or you could get roles business/data/systems analyst which are broad in descriptions. They could be very technical to not technical at all but these roles exist to be the middle-man between development and management normally.

Google these roles depending on your area you could start out at 50k easily if you get your internships in and do well in school. Network with your peers and make as many connections as possible. It's way easier to get a job from someone you know versus spamming applications. I can't stress the internships enough though. Not only can you already have a job lined up but you can essentially fast-track your career. You look more competitive than your peers who didn't do internships and basically all that experience is potentially two less years of shittier pay.

The IT field is growing and shows no signs of slowing down for the most part. Roles such as system administrator are slowly leveling off (even dying) but the IT field is so broad that if you know your shit you can find work easy especially if you are willing to move. You don't even need a degree technically but it's getting harder and harder to get by without one and will always be the tie breaker between you and another non-degree candidate at the very least.

Obviously mechanical engineering. It's a decent major. I've got that paper even though I have no interest in engineering, and even I can land jobs in those shitty times.
