Undergraduate Asking for Advice

Hi guys! I am currently a rising third-year majoring in computer science. I've always had a strong interest in software development as a career which stems from my interest in game development, but after the past school year of conducting undergraduate research in cs education, I've grown an interest in that as well. I think you can make a strong difference regardless of the path, but to be honest I want to be able to mix the two interests of swe and CSEd research in academia while still doing something that benefits others, which is why I have been recently looking into HCI. I'm not necessarily interested in a PhD, but I do want to go for grad school.

With all that being said, I just want to know if anyone could speak on their experience going for a masters' and/or PhD in HCI, especially if they found themselves in a similar situation when they were in undergrad.
