這條消息說的是美國高等教育中現在不再很吃香的十類專業。10 CollegeDegrees That Are a Dime a Dozen Anymore。去年讀到的文章,不過美國教育和社會經濟總體狀況兩三年來沒大的變化。只有政治因特總而有進一步的分裂。因而這些信息依然具有參考價值。
文章說,現在人們都重視上大學college(不是中國人常用的university),因此至少弄一個學士學位是起碼的。也可能你選擇讀昆蟲生物學或者長笛演奏,但是大多數學生還是會選擇常見的學科類型。我們不是要打碎你的美夢。你并不是巨大人群中出類拔萃的一個。拿到一個本科學位依然算是一個成就,但是到畢業進入一個已經超飽和的市場時,那競爭慘烈得很。With such an emphasis on getting a college education, it’s littlewonder that getting at least a bachelor’s degree is taken for granted thesedays. Sure, you could study insect biology or flute performance, but moststudents will end up choosing majors that fall into common categories. We hateto break it to you: You are not a unique snowflake in a sea of otherwisesimilar students. Earning that college degree is still an accomplishment, butthe competition can be fierce if you’re entering an already-saturated jobfield.
