Computers fell out of the top five! The top 20 majors in the employment rate in 2024 are released, and the top of the list is unexpected
The 2024 spring recruitment season has kicked off, and with waves of college graduates stepping in, the topic of employment has once again become the focus of attention everywhere. The current employment situation is severe, and this challenge is widely felt by all walks of life.
According to the information collected from various places**, there are significant differences in the employment situation of graduates of different majors in 2024. In particular, liberal arts graduates are facing greater employment pressure, and science students also find that there is a relative lack of job opportunities.
In contrast, engineering graduates are highly sought after by companies. Not only do they have more employment opportunities, but businesses are willing to pay more. After all, employers believe that engineering graduates have the practical skills to create real value for their business.
According to the statistics of online recruitment platforms, the overall employment contract rate of college graduates in 2024 is worrying. Up to now, only a few majors have a contract rate of more than 80%, and a considerable number of majors have an employment rate of less than 50%.
With the announcement of the results of the postgraduate entrance examination, more fresh graduates will devote themselves to the competition for employment, and the competition is bound to be more fierce in the future. Of course, there are also graduates of some majors who have received multiple offers in advance.
At present, under the employment situation in 2024, it is worth paying attention to the top 20 majors in terms of employment rate. Surprisingly, Energy & Power Engineering ended up with 81The employment rate of 12% won the top spot, becoming the only major to break 80%.
The achievement of this achievement is inseparable from the rise of China's new energy vehicle industry. In the past, graduates of this major were mainly employed in national power enterprises, but now they are widely favored by new energy vehicle companies, and excellent graduates are even more sought-after.
It is followed by mechanical engineering with an employment rate of 7545%, ranking second in the country, is still a good performance. Mechanical engineering runs through the entire industrial production chain, so its employment stability has always been recognized.
It is worth mentioning that China has the most complete industrial chain in the world, and the total industrial production value ranks first in the world. Although the enrollment of mechanical engineering majors has not been expanded for more than ten consecutive years, the overall salary level may not be high, but the employment prospects are still considerable.
The other top three is microelectronics science and engineering, with an employment rate of 7432%, ranking third in the country. This major belongs to the branch of electronic science and technology, focusing on the research and design of microelectronic devices and integrated circuits.
Microelectronics Science and Engineering is more difficult to study, and those with a postgraduate degree are better employed. Graduates are mainly working in the semiconductor industry, while the best ones are engaged in chip research, and the current employment salary is quite attractive.
In 2024, under the employment situation, the employment rate of automation graduates will reach 7179%, ranking fourth in the country. In addition to the traditional manufacturing industry, more and more students are flocking to new energy vehicle companies, and the employment rate is expected to exceed 80% by June.
The employment rate for software engineering majors is 7013%, ranking fifth in the country. At present, Internet companies around the country have laid off employees, and the scale of recruitment has decreased, but the employment salary of software engineering majors is still high, which is its advantage.
The employment rate for vehicle engineering majors is 6997%, ranking sixth in the country. Benefiting from the rapid development of China's new energy vehicle industry, emerging automobile companies have a strong demand for skilled graduates, so the employment rate continues to rise.
The employment rate for computer science and technology majors is 6865%, ranking seventh in the country. After decades of enrollment expansion, computer majors have gradually become saturated, job wages have been gradually compressed, and the current job market has returned to rationality.
According to the top 20 majors in the current employment rate, the high employment rate is inseparable from the booming sunrise industry. The expansion of these industries has provided more employment opportunities for graduates.
However, the gradual shrinking of the real estate and infrastructure sectors has made it difficult for majors such as civil engineering and architecture to break into the top 20, gradually losing their former luster and the employment prospects of these professions are becoming more and more bleak.
As Mr. Zhang Xuefeng said, engineering majors are the way out for ordinary students. At present, the top 20 majors are basically engineering, while science and liberal arts majors are gradually drifting away.
It is worth noting that as of February 2024, a large number of graduates will be employed in the next three months, and the employment rate of various majors is expected to continue to increase.
