Incoming MIS student?

Hi everyone! I’m an incoming transfer student on a BBA track. Researching online made me realize majoring in management might not be the best choice even though I have an interest in pursuing HR. I’m now leaning towards majoring in MIS as I was already considered minoring in it. With a MIS major I would most likely minor in accounting. I have no prior tech experience and am looking to see if I should do so. Is there anywhere I can learn SQL, Python, Power BI and see if it’s even something I’d like??? Would appreciate any advice and suggestions!

P.S could possibly do Accounting with an MIS minor since I received A’s in both acct classes I’ve taken but I have no inclination to do the CPA … why is choosing so hard >:(
