Q: when you are deciding a university, which one would you choose, the one with good professors or the one with high employment rate?
There is a increasing tendency for college students to have difficulties in finding jobs. Some claim that the lack of practical education contributes to that situation. In light of this, people are willing to send their children to those universities with high rate of employment which mainly teach students applied knowledge rather than basic knowledge. As for me, I do deem that universities should take employment rate as an essential task.
The first compelling argument is that universities with high rate of employment teach students more practical knowledge which are essential to their future. Although basic knowledge, such as physics and calculus, are essential to our logical thinking, they can be less helpful when students are facing with job pursuing. Therefore, universities should lay more stress on applied courses and less on theoretical ones. Those universities which pay more attention on practical education- that is, teach students communication abilities, efficient work style as well as interview skills provide with various roads to their students. With above abilities, student could have choice to pursue their dream job rather than get rejected just because of their inability of getting along with others.
Considering that high employment rate universities enable students obtain more practical knowledge, students can also become more positive when they are facing with job hunting. An illustrating example is my experience with my university in Beijing. My university is good one but not the best, however, known as the norm of making every student find their job. Despite I was not been educated by those excellent professors, but I finally find my dream job. From my experience, as long as the university you chosen guarantees you a better job, the fame of the professors do not matters.
Admittedly that excellent professors who have done deep researches or those with good fame do exert influence on our understanding of courses and, to some extent, our attitudes towards research fields. They can impart more profound knowledge and help us make progresses in our research realm. However, we have to leave universities and make our steps to the society, theoretical knowledge, even though are charming, cannot help us give interviewers a good impression at the first glimpse. Therefore, the balance of school-choosing is more likely to go to the side with high rate of employment.
Weighing the pros and cons of selecting universities with excellent professors or with high employment rate, we may come to the conclusion that when job hunting is relative more vital than deep knowledge in students’ future life. Thus, I suggest that unless you are focusing on researching, your better choice is those universities with high employment rate.
