Summary: inventory the employment status of various majors in the university.
days ago, the Ministry of Education issued the "Notice on Doing a Good Job in Employment and Entrepreneurship for Graduates of Ordinary Colleges and Universities in 2023", which mentioned: Guide universities to focus on disciplines and majors with strong social needs, broad employment prospects and large talent gaps, and promptly eliminate or update and upgrade disciplines and majors that are no longer suitable for social needs. The Ministry of Education will take the employment status of college graduates as an important basis for the evaluation of the effectiveness of the "Double First-Class" construction, the establishment and evaluation of subject and majors, and the arrangement of enrollment plans and other work, and implement a red and yellow card reminder system for the implementation rate of employment destinations for college graduates.
According to statistics from the Ministry of Education, the number of graduates from ordinary colleges and universities in the 2023 nationwide is expected to reach 11.58 million. The increase in employment of college students by year-on-year compared with has once again attracted widespread attention from the society. There are many different opinions on the Internet about the Ministry of Education's move.
ideal is beautiful, but reality is very skinny. Some people "unemployed" after graduation, while others have annual salary of hundreds of thousands. So choosing the right major is very important. Today we will take a look at the employment status of various majors in the university. Candidates who are choosing majors can refer to it.
"Bachelor's Green Card Major in the past five years"
According to the "2021 China College Student Employment Report" released by the Myccos Research Institute, it lists those green card majors with small unemployment and high comprehensive employment rate, salary and employment satisfaction.
Among them, information security and software engineering have ranked among the top two in the green majors for five consecutive years; 7 major majors such as information engineering , network engineering, computer science and technology, digital media technology, electrical engineering and its automation have been on the list many times. Among them, there are 5 majors in computer science, 1 major in electronic information and electrical science. This is also the most popular major in filling out college entrance examination applications and the largest enrollment scale today.
It is worth noting that when making professional choices, you cannot only look at the data for one year. You can check the development trend of green card majors from the data for the past five years. For example, from the graduate employment report for five consecutive years from 2017 to 2021, the three majors such as information security, software engineering, and network engineering have been on the list for five consecutive years, which is a full green card major in recent years. Information engineering, electrical engineering and its automation, digital media technology, digital media art, communication engineering, IoT engineering and advertising majors have all appeared in the green card list in the past five years, so everyone can pay more attention.
"In the past five years, undergraduate red card majors "
report also lists some red card majors with relatively large unemployment and relatively low comprehensive employment rate, salary and employment satisfaction.
Among them, in law major, many students may think that their development prospects are good and their salary is high. However, because law has high requirements for talents, and the data here is mainly aimed at the employment situation of undergraduate graduates, so this time it was also "unfortunately on the list".
"Employment Rate Ranking after Half a Year of Graduation"
According to the "2021 China College Student Employment Report" released by the Max Research Institute, among the 2021 undergraduate graduates, the major of the major in software engineering and energy and power engineering leads the employment rate list.
So, when choosing a major, which majors can be chosen and which ones should be considered clearly?
These majors need to be carefully selected
1. "Minority" majors
, such as philosophy, logic, ethnology, ethnology, ethnology, astronomy, art performance, etc.
not only have few schools, but also have high requirements for learners themselves, and the requirements for years of study are also quite long. For majors like
, you can only learn basic concepts in undergraduate studies, and many of them need to continue to study further. In addition to having basic professional skills and excellent skills, you also need to have a certain talent. Even if you have the above two items, finding a job may require a rare opportunity.
2. "Difficult to employment" major
has some majors, but the corresponding major is particularly difficult, and there are many graduates who change careers. For example: sociology, social work, investment, international economy and trade, business administration, history.
The two majors of sociology and social work are very similar. The former is more theoretical and the latter is more practical.The former faces competition from many non-professional graduates, while the latter has very few opportunities in non-first-tier cities.
Investment studies seem high-end, but the actual path is very narrow. International economy, trade and business administration are both majors with relatively broad learning content, and the things I have learned are broad but not in-depth.
3. "Replaced" major
Traditional engineering will face relatively big challenges in the future, such as: many grassroots positions in machinery, automation, and civil engineering majors. The nature of traditional work is repeated day after day, and repeated work is easily replaced by artificial intelligence .
How to choose a school and major?
1. Clear the difference between engineering and science
Science is a research-oriented type, and the work location is mostly indoors. The general destination is the research institute, but the academic qualifications are also high. Engineering is more practical than theory, and can also find employment after graduating from undergraduate studies, and most of the destinations are enterprises and institutions.
2. Choose schools with the first choice for Double First-Class, 985, 211 universities, and these universities are all key first-tier universities in my country. They have a lot of scientific research funds and strong faculty. 985, 211 universities recognize academic qualifications all over the world. Schools such as Peking University , Tsinghua University , Renmin University and other universities are all 211 and 985.
Some art colleges, including Communication University of China and Central Conservatory of Music , belong to 211 colleges.
985 and 211 universities belong to the previous evaluation system, and later changed to double first-class construction universities and universities with first-class disciplines. These are also important reference factors.
In addition, you can also select high-quality universities by ranking major and subject, that is, the results of the fourth round of discipline evaluation in nationwide.
3. Choose a major. You need to choose the school’s ace major (national first-level discipline)
After selecting a college, when choosing a major, students should focus on the school’s ace major based on their interests, hobbies, knowledge accumulation, ability, and potential. Since
is the trump card, the country will increase support accordingly. These schools have strong professional faculty and teaching facilities and a good learning atmosphere. Moreover, the development space and employment prospects of such majors can also be reflected from the perspective.
4. Distinguish the major itself as a literature and science
majors include only science subjects, only liberal arts subjects, and both liberal arts subjects; there are also necessary physics, history or other subjects to apply for in the new college entrance examination area, and there is no limit to majors. Parents need to understand clearly when choosing a registration with their children. Never have minor problems in the choice of literature, science, physics, and history.
5. Understand the specific direction you learned in your major, so as not to misreport
Many people usually misunderstand the learning direction of certain majors, and only regret it after entering the threshold.
For example: What people usually think of as a director major is actually a major classification method, and it should be understood as a "director" major. It can be subdivided into radio and television directing majors, director majors, drama, film and television literature majors, cultural industry management majors, etc., and some majors such as radio and television directing majors can be subdivided into several directions. If candidates do not pay much attention when filling out the application, it is easy to get into the wrong entrance.
