Summary: Materials Physics professional senior girl, which direction is guaranteed to study in , which direction will it be more helpful for future employment?
Today I will share with you a fan friend's case analysis of career planning . She told me:
"I am a girl, a key Normal University in a remote province, majoring in materials physics, majoring in , and now I have a few months left before the postgraduate entrance examination, but I still haven't made up my mind to take the major.
I think I may be good at studies Learning psychology , but I am very scared of in-depth research. I am always afraid that they will attack me suddenly. Maybe I don’t know much about psychology.
When I first came into contact with physics in junior high school, I did better than other students. At that time, I often got full marks. But later, due to some family problems and psychological problems, I couldn’t concentrate on studying, so my grades continued to decline, which led to the deterioration of people around me and more affecting my psychology.
I realized at that time that I had this aspect The problem, but my parents didn't care about me, didn't believe me at all, and kept suppressing me. This problem was not solved until the year I repeated my high school.
I still liked to learn physics when I was in high school, but I had already started to learn sexual helplessness. I asked for help from everyone around me, but it was useless. I went to the only psychological counselor in our place, and the counselor was scolded by my parents. Later, I went to see a doctor in a larger city, and it was better after taking medicine.
Unfortunately, I couldn't learn systematically I don't know if I can learn it well. I only know that after the second year of high school, I will never do any physics questions. Maybe I haven't remembered many of my small knowledge points, so I feel very stupid.
When I was studying physics in college, I felt that I used to be very good. So I am not sure whether I want to continue studying physics. I like physics very much, but I am a person who really hopes that I can do things and are good at things. It's best to express my feelings well.
I now have an opportunity to be admitted to the postgraduate, but I don’t know which major is good to maintain. Should I go to the physics direction and study in depth to see if I can learn it? But I think it’s highly likely that I can’t learn it. I am still not very good at science.
or to follow the psychology direction, overcome my inner fear, and explore which branch I suit?
or continue to study engineering to see if I can catch up with the material trend?
or try cross-insurance journalism major and make your own choice. What about a media person’s dream?
Actually, my original family background is OK. My parents are very willing to spend money on me, but the relationship needs to be improved. My ideal career is a university teacher, free and flexible, I can do the best in the fields I like, and I can also explore other aspects. Moreover, the university environment is relatively not to distinguish students based on grades, and it is relatively equal.
But now after understanding, I also know that the scientific research work in colleges and universities is very high, and the competition is too fierce, and it may put the cart before the horse. I have been doing it for the past few decades Competition and competition... I am another person who is only suitable for small pressures and not high pressure environments. Even the students who are competing for graduate school are also helpful to each other because they don’t want to compete fiercely.
I want to study abroad. My mother thinks it is not cost-effective, and I am not sure what I want to study. The family can only be considered small funds. The premise is that I don’t spend it randomly, it’s best to have a work near my home.
Because they are very hard to make this money... I don’t have much trial and error cost. I know that it may be the best for me. The best solution is to study physics, take a physics teacher, and then explore other directions.
However, now because you want to be admitted to the postgraduate (there may be a quota), you will be sure to be able to be admitted in a few days. If you go to a better university, I may not be able to learn physics. If I can keep up with my studies at this school.
I don’t have much feeling about this major, and it won’t be painful to learn. But after graduation, if I don’t understand the work related to materials, I should not all enter the factory, right? Girls are not very welcome if I enter the factory.I may not be able to read the
chip design, because I may not be able to learn it. The materials may require a doctorate. I think it is highly likely that I can’t change my direction if I study for a doctorate.
I thought that if I study physics well, I might still be able to take PGCE (teacher training courses for UK, Wales , Northern Ireland ) and go abroad to find a job. If I feel that the pressure of work in China is too great in the future, there is still a way out. And I would love to visit different places. It's hard for me to make up my mind to make a choice now. I don't know what to do. "
Today, I will take the opportunity to reply to this friend and tell you some of my views and ideas for reference by friends in similar situations.
After reading your description, I can basically determine your innate personality and thinking pattern, and I have basically had a clear answer.
Let me first talk about the final conclusion: it is not recommended to continue to study science and engineering when studying for a master's degree, especially scientific research. It is not recommended to study abroad, and it does not have much practical significance.
But you can consider studying in a related counterpart for your first career in the future, such as subject physics, middle school physics teaching theory, etc., just to find your first job - primary and secondary school teachers.
or you can directly choose the psychology direction Or the education major, it is best to finish your doctorate in one go and eventually stay in the university to teach.
So, if you sort out the above conclusions, it is easy to draw the following two personal long-term career development ideas that are suitable for you:
First idea: When taking the postgraduate entrance examination or enrollment in postgraduate entrance examination, directly choose the professional direction needed by primary and secondary school teachers in the future. Which subject you like to teach, you can apply for. Of course, the lowest learning cost is definitely to teach primary school science or junior high school physics in the future.
So, the professional direction of studying for postgraduate entrance examination is very clear. To study for primary and secondary school teachers for the purpose of primary and secondary school teachers, choose the subject physics teaching direction.
However, the first teacher job is just a transitional work in the early stage of your career. After doing your first career, you can slowly try to transform in the later stage and explore the second career direction.
Second idea: taking the postgraduate entrance examination or enrollment When studying, directly choose the professional direction you need to be a university teacher in the future. It is recommended to apply for education, psychology, etc. (Education can actually be considered a branch of psychology), but you must complete your doctorate in one go and eventually stay at the university as a teacher.
When looking for a job in the future, if you want to be relaxed, choose a relatively low-ranking undergraduate or even junior college; if you want to do scientific research, try to choose a relatively high-ranking undergraduate college.
If you feel that you can adapt to the work of a university teacher, you will keep doing it; if you feel that you are not very adaptable in the later stage, you can also do side jobs, and even quit your job and transform to become a freelancer when the conditions are ripe.
Let’s briefly answer your other questions:
1. You think you are good at studying psychology, and this feeling is right.
does not need to be afraid of researchers, and people’s psychology also has certain rules to follow. If you see more types of people, you are good at observing other people's behaviors and are diligent in reflection, you will naturally be able to understand the internal laws slowly.
Research on this knowledge, and only learning book theory is not enough. It requires more social practice and requires contact with all kinds of people.
2. The physics of junior high school is extremely simple, and the full score of the exam cannot explain too many problems.
0 After all, the score is still an exam, only If you take the exam, it is a human-determined scope. The artificially stipulated scope of the exam, the routines and rules are very idealized and simplified, so it is not difficult to get the exam.
You did not learn physics well in high school because you did not put enough effort into it. Most of your energy is spent on mental distractions, that is, you have thought too much about things other than taking the exam, and you will have less effort to really take the exam, so you will naturally not be able to learn it well.
3. In the long run, your innate personality type and thinking pattern type are better at humanities and social science knowledge. In layman's terms, it means that it is suitable for research people, suitable for organization, management, overall planning and coordination types of work, and is not suitable for long-term technical positions in science and engineering.
However, since we need to consider the economic independence issue when we first entered society, most people still need to start from front-line technical positions in various industries. Moreover, in order to achieve better long-term career development, we also need to continue to learn a lot of new science and engineering knowledge in a timely manner to use it as auxiliary skills.
As for your innate personality, you are obviously not the kind of person who is simple-minded and can focus on only studying science and technology. You are an innate thinking model of "thinking more". In the long run, the major and work in the liberal arts direction will be more suitable for you.
4. If you do a psychological work, you don’t have to do face-to-face one-on-one consultation. You can have online work or offline scientific research work.
You feel fear and fear now, it is just because your cognitive level is not enough and your comprehensive ability has not reached the level of seeing the world and people's hearts clearly, but these can be finally obtained through learning. All human knowledge and abilities are learned through acquired knowledge.
When your cognitive level reaches a certain level, you will naturally eliminate the previous fears, because at that time you can basically predict what will happen, so you will naturally not be afraid of being unsure.
5. In addition, it is basically impossible to have something like going from 9 to 5 and not having a job after get off work in the early stage of your career. This is determined by the characteristics of the times and the social situation.
If you want to realize your ideals, there is only one way, that is, to develop and cultivate yourself in the direction of freelancing. Otherwise, you will never be truly happy in your life. These are determined by the future social development trends and your innate personality. I can tell you these things in advance now.
