People have different views about how much choice students should have with regard to what they can study at university. While some argue that it would be better for students to be forced into certain key subject areas, I believe that everyone should be able to study the course of their choice.
There are various reasons why people believe that universities should only offer subjects that will be useful in the future. They may assert that university courses like medicine, engineering and information technology are more likely to be beneficial than certain art degrees. From a personal perspective, it can be argued that these courses provide more job opportunities, career progression, better salaries, and therefore an improved quality of life for students who take them. On the societal level, by forcing people to choose particular university subjects, governments can ensure that any knowledge and skill gaps in the economy are covered. Finally, a focus on technology in higher education could lead to new inventions, economic growth, and greater future prosperity.
In spite of these arguments, I believe that university students should be free to choose their preferred areas of study. In my opinion, society will benefit more if our students are passionate about what they are learning. Besides, nobody can really predict which areas of knowledge will be most useful to society in the future, and it may be that employers begin to value creative thinking skills above practical or technical skills. If this were the case, perhaps we would need more students of art, history and philosophy than of science or technology.
In conclusion, although it might seem sensible for universities to focus only on the most useful subjects, I personally prefer the current system in which people have right to study whatever they like.
人們對學(xué)生在大學(xué)學(xué)習(xí)時(shí)應(yīng)該有多少選擇有不同的看法。雖然有些人認(rèn)為最好是強(qiáng)迫學(xué)生進(jìn)入某些關(guān)鍵學(xué)科領(lǐng)域,但我認(rèn)為每個(gè)人都應(yīng)該能夠研究他們選擇的課程。
人們認(rèn)為大學(xué)應(yīng)該只提供將來有用的科目有很多原因。他們可能會(huì)斷言,像醫(yī)學(xué)、工程和信息技術(shù)這樣的大學(xué)課程比某些藝術(shù)學(xué)位更可能是有益的。從個(gè)人的角度來看,可以說,這些課程提供更多的就業(yè)機(jī)會(huì),職業(yè)發(fā)展,更好的工資,因此,提高學(xué)生的生活質(zhì)量,他們采取。在社會(huì)層面上,通過強(qiáng)迫人們選擇特定的大學(xué)科目,政府可以確保經(jīng)濟(jì)中的知識(shí)和技能差距得到彌補(bǔ)。最后,把重點(diǎn)放在高等教育技術(shù)上可以帶來新發(fā)明、經(jīng)濟(jì)增長和更大的未來繁榮。
盡管有這些論點(diǎn),我認(rèn)為大學(xué)生應(yīng)該有自由選擇他們喜歡的學(xué)習(xí)領(lǐng)域。在我看來,如果我們的學(xué)生對他們所學(xué)的東西充滿熱情,社會(huì)將受益更多。此外,沒有人能真正預(yù)測哪些領(lǐng)域的知識(shí)將來對社會(huì)最有用,雇主可能會(huì)開始重視創(chuàng)造性思維技能,而不是實(shí)用或技術(shù)技能。如果是這樣的話,也許我們需要更多的藝術(shù)、歷史和哲學(xué)的學(xué)生,而不是科學(xué)或技術(shù)。
總之,雖然大學(xué)似乎只關(guān)注最有用的學(xué)科,但我個(gè)人更傾向于當(dāng)前的系統(tǒng),在這個(gè)系統(tǒng)中,人們有權(quán)學(xué)習(xí)他們喜歡的任何東西。
