Do not apply for the following undergraduate majors, and even if you are admitted, you will drop out and repeat directly
12 years of hard work is the crystallization of the expectations of parents and children. After a lot of hard work, I finally got the admission qualification, but whether I want to resolutely drop out of school and repeat the study, is the question that can be asked mercilessly?Are such rhetoric responsible enough?Although my views may be controversial, I would like to provide you with reference for your consideration.
It all started yesterday when my relatives and colleagues asked me to inquire about a situation. His child, classmate A, is doing an internship at a key high school. Student A is a graduate of a provincial key high school, who applied for the Chinese language and literature major of a normal university jointly established by a ministry and province in the province, but was eventually transferred to the history major (normal). I am currently in the middle of my internship. It was heartbreaking for me to learn about this, because even if Student A did well in her internship or went back to school to pursue her master's degree, the job prospects she faced after graduation would be troublesome for them.
In 1994, China's higher education began to carry out the reform of the graduate employment distribution system, which changed from the national package distribution to the two-way choice. By 1998, with the exception of a few majors, university graduates were fully self-employed. In the same year, the scale of enrollment expansion of colleges and universities increased significantly, and as long as students applied for the examination, related majors would be opened. Although the Ministry of Education requires colleges and universities to provide employment data for graduates, the employment status is reported by colleges and universities, and schools are only responsible for training students until graduation.
My view is that instead of risking four years of college and not finding your dream job, it's better to spend a year and invest a little more money. Such a decision may be wasted for a while, but the sacrifice of this year is nothing compared to the damage of a lifetime.
Some majors, although more difficult, have at least a chance to succeed, such as accounting. Although some majors have a poor working environment and relatively low pay, they are regarded as "pit" majors, such as biotechnology, although the employment situation is not optimistic, but at least there are food biotechnology and pharmaceutical biotechnology directions;Although there are fewer employment opportunities in some majors, they have solid professional knowledge, and they can learn practical skills during college, and it is relatively easy to change careers, such as the exploration technology and engineering major of geology, and formal employment needs to be engaged in field exploration in the geological team, although the working environment is difficult, but I have learned a lot of software programs, which is at least helpful for changing careers to become programmers.
Some majors have limited jobs and the content they learn is not practical. If you choose these majors, you would rather make a decision early and choose to drop out and repeat your studies.
01 Philosophy under the category of Philosophy 101 includes philosophy, logic, religion, ethics and other majors. In addition to becoming a university teacher, there are very few opportunities for other civil servants to be recruited. It was mentioned that Guo Guangchang was a graduate of Fudan philosophy. Remember, college students in those days were all assigned in packages.
The 303 Sociology category under the 03 Law category includes sociology, social work, anthropology, women's studies, home economics, gerontology, social policy and other majors. Employment opportunities for these professions are also very limited. For example, there are more than 200 schools across the country, with more than 13,000 graduates every year, and the employment direction is mainly neighborhood committees, aid stations, and neighborhood offices.
The same is true for the 304 ethnology category under the category of jurisprudence, such as ethnology. Unless there is a specific opportunity waiting for you.
There are 6 majors in the 302 political science category under the law category, but the employment situation is not optimistic. Even if you are admitted to the School of International Relations, it is difficult to get into *** job, and the employment prospects of international politics majors are the worst.
04 Under the category of education, in the 401 education category, except for a very small number of college counselors who can be hired, most graduates are facing unemployment. The education major mainly trains educational research and management personnel, and a research article from a 985 university shows that the corresponding employment rate of this major is only 196%γIn contrast, educational technology is considered a "pit" by some self-leaders, but this view is inaccurate because primary and secondary schools are in dire need of information technology teachers. Information technology software programming education is required to start from the first grade of primary school, coupled with the promotion of STEAM engineering education, there is a great demand for information technology teachers in primary and secondary schools.
Among the 501 Chinese Chinese literature under the 05 literature category, the employment prospects of teaching Chinese to speakers of other languages are the worst. This major was established in conjunction with the Belt and Road Initiative, and the employment direction is mainly volunteer positions provided by Hanban. In recent years, the Confucius Institute has been abolished, and it is very difficult to find a job, and there is no corresponding professional direction for graduate school entrance examination. Although it is possible to learn a second foreign language, it is often difficult to find a job that matches the major after graduation. Other majors, such as Chinese minority language and literature, classical philology, and applied linguistics, should be carefully considered by students whose families do not have employment background and resources due to the small number of students enrolled and the high degree of specialization.
There are 502 foreign Chinese languages and literatures under the literature category, with a total of 792 undergraduate majors, of which 103 are minor languages. Parents who choose to take the initiative to apply for a small language often have certain social resources and background, otherwise it is not recommended to enter the pit rashly.
06 History 601 History has 9 majors, and the overall employment situation is not ideal. For example, the major of cultural relics and museology, the main employment destinations are museums, archaeological institutes, and historical research units, with about 3,000 graduates (including undergraduate, master's and doctoral degrees) every year, and the employment rate of undergraduates and teachers is only 15%. Fujian Province's 2023 new college entrance examination selection data shows that the province is 20Only 50,000 out of 40,000 candidates chose history, less than 25 percent, a significant decrease compared to the original, and there is already a surplus of history teachers. For these students, the employment prospects of the counterpart are not optimistic. One of the feasible ways is to obtain a primary school teacher qualification certificate and seize the gap in some local policies to teach in primary schoolsOtherwise, you can only prepare for three unlimited civil service positions.
07 701 Mathematics under the category of Science, including Mathematics and Applied Mathematics, some people think that after learning mathematics well, they can go to graduate school and then turn to engineering, such as computer science, but this is an unwise choice. In addition, it is also the view that students majoring in mathematics are more likely to be valued by engineering tutors and do not have back pain when they stand and talk. The employment direction of applied mathematics is not accurate enough, and the main weakness of this discipline lies in the lack of professional subject skills, which is too broad and not in-depth, and simply put, it is to learn a set of "water" majors that are not practical enough.
There are very few astronomy majors in the 704 astronomy categories under the science category. If you are transferred to this major, you can consider dropping out and repeating your studies. Especially if you are admitted to a non-985 school, you can consider dropping out directly.
There are more than 20 universities and research institutes in the country that offer 706 atmospheric sciences under the category of science, and the number of graduates majoring in atmospheric sciences in 2020 is about 3,500.
