The reduction of the graduate school entrance examination shows that students are already thinking about what the graduate school entrance examination is. However, some colleges or majors may not be worth taking the graduate school entrance exam, and it will be delayed for many years. Some people in the education sector put it down to "it is difficult for college students to choose a job". After completing the master's degree, I couldn't find a job, and I felt that the graduate school entrance examination was time-consuming and laborious, so the number of applicants gradually decreased. This shows the strong connection between money and work.
In response to this, Zhang Xuefeng, the editor-in-chief of the famous network, gave 6 majors that were admitted but will not have a "way to make money" in the future, that is, philosophy, education, business and commerce, journalism, biology, and materials. They are classified as "unprospected" occupations because job opportunities are scarce, competition is fierce, and pay is not equal.
Philosophy: Useless things are hidden under the ornate cloak.
Although the name of philosophy is very high-end, it does not play much role when looking for a job. Because there are very few people in this industry, there is very little space to work. After a PhD, the best option is to pursue a career as a teacher, but this opportunity is rare and competitive. In general, reading philosophy is a subject that is neither cost-effective nor profitable.
Extended: This is a seemingly high-end subject, which contains deep thinking and research on philosophy. However, from a practical point of view, there are not many positions that are truly competent in philosophy. Relatively speaking, the best way to study philosophy is to complete a PhD and then teach at a school. However, due to the limited number of places, the number of positions is scarce and the competition is high. In general, taking a philosophy course is not cost-effective, although it is possible to have an in-depth Xi, but the corresponding salary and remuneration are low.
Education: The Nightmare of Graduate Education.
In the Graduate Record Exam, education is seen as a nightmare. Compared with other majors, the admission score of education has risen much more, and sometimes even the second round of exams is difficult. The ideal career for university graduates is to pursue a career in teaching, but due to the establishment of schools and the restrictions on job positions, the number of jobs for students is also limited. At the same time, teachers' salaries and benefits are not very good. Some institutions of higher learning prefer to admit prestigious universities such as Tsinghua University and Peking University, while students in general education are relatively rare. Therefore, in general, it is not cost-effective to apply for education majors.
Extension: Pedagogy is a science about educational theories, educational methods, educational behaviors. However, at the graduate level, Xi education candidates often face a challenging testing procedure. Compared with other majors, the enrollment score of education is rising, and sometimes it is even more difficult to get the second place. The best career choice for normal graduates is to work as a teacher, but there are relatively few jobs for normal talents. At the same time, teachers' salaries and benefits are not very good. Some colleges and universities tend to recruit students from key universities such as Tsinghua University and Peking University, while there are fewer students in general education. Therefore, in general, it is not cost-effective to apply for an education major, and you must be clear about your career prospects.
MBA: Experience not diploma.
For both graduate and undergraduate students, an MBA is not recommended. This major is a "seniority-over-diploma" profession that is much more practical than an MBA student who has just graduated from high school and has several years of business management experience. If you don't start from the grassroots level, it's hard to get the corresponding position, unless you have your own company at home. Students with average family conditions have relatively limited career development space after entering the enterprise.
Extension: Business Management is a course dedicated to training managers, including business management, marketing, and human resource management. However, an MBA is not recommended for the average person, even for graduate school. This major is a profession with more experience than education, and a student who has graduated from high school and has several years of experience in business administration has a higher real value than a business graduate. It's hard to find the right position unless your own company can bring you opportunities if you don't start at the grassroots level. College students with average economic conditions, if they enter MBA Xi, their employment prospects are not ideal, and their employment prospects are not ideal.
Journalism Department: Get ahead by your connections.
Zhang Xuefeng said that there is no big problem in studying journalism, but whether you can find a job has become a problem. Without outstanding appearance, excellent business ability, and good connections, it is almost impossible to get ahead. In this line of work, education is not a stepping stone, relationships are the most important. Pursuing this profession is not something that the average student from a family can do.
Extension: This specialization includes reporting, editing, interviewing, operations, etc. Zhang Xuefeng feels that studying journalism is not a big problem, but whether you can find a job is the most important thing. If you want to be successful in this industry, it is impossible to succeed without enough appearance, enough business ability and enough contacts. In this line of work, education is not a stepping stone, relationships are the most important. Pursuing this profession is not something that the average student from a family can do. Therefore, students who want to apply for journalism must combine their own conditions and hobbies, and also think of other more practical methods.
Creatures: Highly competitive, most people are cannon fodder.
In the 80s, people thought that biology had a future, but it was soon replaced by computers. Even if you do biology well, you can't do without a higher degree, and the job opportunities are not as good as you think. If you Xi study well, you may be engaged in careers such as pharmaceuticals and food in the future, and the salary is not low, but in this very competitive field, most people are cannon fodder. And not being able to engage in a profession related to it is a very popular profession.
Extension: Biology is mainly studied in life sciences and bioengineering. In the 80s, there was a common belief that biology was promising, but it was soon replaced by computers. Even if you do biology well, you can't do without a higher degree, and the job opportunities are not as good as you think. If you Xi study well, you may be engaged in careers such as pharmaceuticals and food in the future, and the salary is not low, but in this very competitive field, most people are cannon fodder. And not being able to engage in a profession related to it is a very popular profession. Therefore, students who want to study Xi biology should be clear about their future development direction, according to their own situation, hobbies, and other practical options.
Materials: It is difficult to find a job and the pay is small.
Many people may not know that this is a relatively partial discipline, including materials science and materials science. Although research work is possible, it is difficult to obtain and the remuneration is not high. Materials science is a discipline characterized by solid knowledge of physical chemistry, and its teaching content is complex and difficult to master. Therefore, when choosing a materials science, you must make a comprehensive evaluation of your hobbies and abilities.
Extension: Materials science is a relatively partial discipline, which mainly studies the preparation, characterization and modification of materials. Although there is a lot of room for development in this field in terms of research, there are few jobs and low pay. Materials majors have a high demand for students' physical chemistry foundation, and the teaching content is complex and difficult to teach, so when taking materials science, it is necessary to have a comprehensive understanding of their own interests and abilities. In addition, it is also necessary to have an understanding of the work situation of the relevant industry and position, and have a clear understanding of their future development.
Although these disciplines are "unpromising", it does not mean that there is no future. Every profession has its own role and function, as long as you put in enough energy and practice, you may still be able to find a suitable job. No matter what you want to study, the first thing to do is to find a major that suits your hobby and has a lot of room for development.
