I have a choices column that list departments and I have a drop down for this choice column. I would like this drop down to match the current users department. Please advise. Thanks

Assuming that the user's department is available as a value in a column on their Contact record, you may be able to use Basic Form Metadata to pre-populate the field - see Attribute type here https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-pages/configure/configure-basic-form-metadata#prepopulate-field

Alternatively, you could use Liquid to retrieve the value from the Contact and then use JavaScript to set the field on the form accordingly, although the specifics depend on whether you wish to pre-populate the field only or remove the ability of the user to change it from their department.
