Liberal arts students (history group) choose a major in the college entrance examination, sounds like a headache, right? There are 13 categories in the catalog of undergraduate majors in China, including literature, management, economics, law, science, engineering, agriculture, medicine, philosophy, education, art, history, and military science. The main categories of choice for children in the history group are philosophy, education, history, literature, management, economics, law, art and medicine. However, after the second reform of college entrance examination subject selection in 2021, only a small number of nursing and ** majors can be selected at the undergraduate level of medicine.
When choosing a major, you have to think about what you want to do in the future and what you are good at. Among the majors available for liberal arts students, we simply divide them into four broad categories.
The first category is scientific research majors, such as philosophy, Marxist theory, political science, sociology, Chinese language (note, not Chinese language and literature), and history. These majors need to be further studyed, do theoretical research, and are suitable for taking the path of scientific research. However, the road to scientific research is boring and long, and you have to like abstract analysis, reasoning, and complete boring research tasks independently. In this kind of major, there are more high-scoring candidates.
The second category is professional skill majors, such as Chinese language and literature, English, law, finance, journalism, accounting, auditing, financial management, nursing, etc. The professions corresponding to these professions are clear, such as ** practitioners, translators, lawyers, teachers, and practitioners in the banking or financial industry. These majors are highly specialized, difficult, irreplaceable, and relatively easy to find employment for the first time. If you love to learn and can turn your expertise into work results, this type of major is for you. The third category is management majors, such as business administration, human resource management, tourism management, marketing, cultural industry management, public utilities management, administrative management, logistics management, e-commerce, etc. Those who come out of these majors can become enterprise managers, market managers, human resource managers, etc. Management majors mainly study management rules, management methods and construction management models to achieve the greatest management benefits. There are many and miscellaneous contents in this type of major, but each content is shallow to learn. Wide range of work, flexible employment, focus on soft power and internship experience. You have to start from the grassroots level, exercise your work ability and accumulate contacts.
The fourth category is artistic and creative majors, such as architecture, urban and rural planning and design, landscape architecture design, advertising design, animation design, fashion design, performance, film and television choreography, etc. These majors are suitable for students who are creative, and can work as architects, fashion designers, advertising designers, animation designers, game designers, writers, etc. in the future. If you like to express your thoughts through works of art, and your imagination and creativity are abundant, then choose this type of major.
In fact, there are so many science students now, and it is really not easy for liberal arts students to choose a major. But if we classify these majors and understand the ability requirements of each type of major for candidates, we will not be so blind in the selection, and I hope to give you some ideas, you are welcome to leave valuable suggestions in the comment area!
