答案                 Should Majors in Universities Be More Practical?
    It is said that many courses in universities are intended to cultivate their students to be scientists or artists in the future, while most graduates finally take a job much irrelevant to their majors. Majors and courses in universities have become not in conformity with the real demands of the job market, so practical skills should be emphasized in universities. In my opinion, it is only partially true for the following reasons.
    On the one hand, the unsuitable curricula and major designs of universities have made graduates stuck in the plight of unemployment. It is true that the design of majors and courses has to be reformed. There are too many majors for theoretical studies and researches whereas there’re few majors for practical skills that most students will need for their future work. Too many impractical majors may lead to oversupply and it is difficult for graduates to survive for their lack of practical skills. The problem is caused by the over-expansion of enrollment and the backward course systems which no longer suit the new situation and employment market. Professors in universities are usually the pure educators with no practical working skills, thus it is impossible for them to share with their students any useful working experience.  In this case, there should be more majors with the practical emphasis.
    On the other hand, it is the unique feature of university study that theories and presumptions are researched on an in-depth level. The theoretical and basic majors are crucial for the development of science and technology. Although most of these courses are boring and time-consuming, some achievements can only be made through painstaking research over quite a long period. Therefore, the theoretical majors still have practical significance for the development of economy and society.
    All in all, majors in universities should be reformed, but the practicality should not be the only purpose.  The theoretical and practical majors should be arranged in a reasonable proportion, and practical courses should be brought in by inviting experienced people as professional teachers. At the same time, more importance should be attached to the construction of vocational schools and universities which aim to train qualified workers for certain posts. This should be a fine supplement to universities, and after the training of vocational schools and universities, we hope that all the students will be able to fully exert their advantages and avoid the disadvantages in their future work.
