Pedagogy: focuses on the research of educational theory and teaching methods, aiming at cultivating senior professionals engaged in teaching and management in primary and secondary schools and social educational institutions.

Teaching: Similar to the normal education major in China, the learning content is biased towards methodology and pays more attention to practice, which can be subdivided into preschool education, primary and secondary education and other branches.

Educational technology: focusing on the application of multimedia technology in teaching, it aims to train senior professionals engaged in multimedia application, digital media product design and development and computer network teaching in various schools, administrative organs, enterprises and institutions and social education institutions.

2. Administration vs Public Utility Management

Administration major: training professionals with knowledge of administration, management, politics and law, who can engage in administrative management and scientific research in party and government organs, enterprises, institutions and social organizations. The main subjects are politics, management and law.

Major of public utilities management (direction of health management): Students are required to have certain basic medical knowledge, and focus on cultivating applied talents who are suitable for management in the administrative departments of institutions such as education, science and technology, sports, environmental protection and social insurance, especially in the medical and health fields. The main subject is public management.

3. Financial accounting vs financial engineering vs finance

Every year, a large number of overseas students choose to study finance, but there are also many sub-majors, such as financial accounting, financial engineering, finance and so on.

Financial accounting: one of the most common financial majors. In Britain, financial accounting is the most difficult to apply for in the business field. If China students want to study finance and accounting in the UK, most of them have to take the preparatory course first.

Financial engineering: financial discipline is difficult to learn. It is sometimes classified as a business school and sometimes as an engineering school. Its training goal is to make students become financial engineers in the future. At the time of initial application, financial engineering generally requires the applicant to have a background in applied mathematics or computer engineering at the undergraduate level. Undergraduate can be a non-financial major, but must have a background in mathematics and physics.

Finance: Emphasis is placed on theoretical study, during which students will be exposed to courses such as enterprise financing, financial measurement, investment analysis and accounting.

In addition to the above three financial majors, there are sub-disciplines of quantitative finance (mathematical finance), computational finance (computer finance) and mathematical finance (mathematical finance), in which mathematical finance focuses on mathematical analysis and the explanation of financial modules, and the other two are interdisciplinary.

4. International economy and trade vs trade economy

These two majors with similar names are actually two complementary majors.

International economy and trade: a comprehensive discipline consisting of the theory and practice of international trade, international finance and international investment, focusing on international and domestic economic activities and economic relations.

Economy and trade: pay attention to domestic government departments, industrial and commercial enterprises, etc. To cultivate economic and trade talents who are familiar with market circulation theory and master trade theory and practice. In the learning process, economic and trade majors pay attention to the combination of domestic trade and foreign trade, marketing and management, focusing on domestic trade and marketing.

To put it simply, the major of international economy and trade is mainly aimed at foreign countries, and the major of trade economy is mainly aimed at China. The similarity between these two majors lies in their foreign-related nature, which requires a higher level of foreign language. Whether studying professional theory or engaging in relevant practice, foreign language proficiency is very important.

Secondly, because these two majors belong to economic disciplines, they not only involve the theoretical knowledge of marketing, international finance and commodity science, but also apply to the knowledge of statistics, mathematics and other disciplines, so having a certain level of mathematics is an important basis for learning them well.

5. Mathematics and Applied Mathematics and Statistics

Mathematics and applied mathematics: The content of mathematics is profound and involves a wide range, which is a great challenge to people's logical thinking. This major generally has three development directions, which also determines that it has three major postgraduate entrance examination directions: pure mathematics, computer and economics. After choosing a direction, you must master the necessary knowledge in that direction.

Statistics: It is mainly aimed at the in-depth study of various courses related to statistical calculation in the field of mathematics, and at the same time it is necessary to master the relevant knowledge of economics and management. This major not only pays attention to theory, but also pays attention to practical operation ability. According to the bias of different schools, there are socio-economic statistics and mathematical statistics.

6. Accounting vs Financial Management vs Audit

Accounting: refers to the work of continuously reflecting, supervising and participating in decision-making in the form of funds. Mainly in the post-event accounting, focusing on "calculation." To put it bluntly, it is to make accounts, make invoices and other bills of enterprises into accounting vouchers, then register and prepare reports! Its essence is to check the economic business system that has happened, so that the report users can clearly see the various businesses, asset amount and realized income of this period!

Financial management: refers to the activities of using management knowledge, skills and methods to manage the collection, use and distribution of enterprise funds. Mainly advanced management, focusing on "reason". Compared with accounting, I prefer the management of funds before and during use, and of course the management after use! To put it bluntly, it is to learn how to use the enterprise's funds, how to raise the enterprise's funds (when the money is not enough), and reflect on whether it is reasonable to use it after use!

Audit: it focuses on the evaluation of business activities of enterprises, not limited to the supervision of compliance and legality of economic activities, but from the aspects of personnel, internal control, environment and resources. The audit focus under the modern enterprise system is to verify and evaluate the benefits of enterprises.

7. Journalism vs Communication vs Radio and Television

Journalism: the business practice that focuses on news gathering, writing, editing and evaluation, especially the news gathering and operation of radio, television, newspapers and the Internet.

Communication: The research scope is extensive, closely combined with sociology, psychology, philosophy, economics and cultural studies. It studies all kinds of communication activities in human social activities and the relationship between the subject of communication activities and the external social environment.

Radio and TV: To cultivate senior professionals in news communication who have the basic theory of radio and TV journalism and extensive knowledge of culture and science, and can engage in editing, interviewing, program hosting and management in radio and TV news propaganda departments.

8. Master of Laws vs Master of Laws

Master of Laws and Master of Laws are two different majors.

Master of Laws: It belongs to the general master's education, focusing on cultivating teaching and scientific research talents, which is what we often call academic master students.

Master of Laws: It belongs to the field of professional degree education, and its education pays more attention to the cultivation of applied talents. The "law" in the professional degree of master of laws refers to the professional field, refers to the professional degree with a specific legal background, and is a professional graduate student who trains advanced legal practice professionals.

9. Physics vs Applied Physics

Physics: Pay more attention to theoretical research. The content of study covers most senior high school physics, and it has been greatly deepened. As for the postgraduate stage, physics knowledge will be more difficult, which requires students to have strong mathematical ability.

Applied physics: It pays more attention to the transformation from theoretical basis to practical technology on the basis of experimental results, and it also needs the spirit of scientific exploration to test one's mathematical foundation and experimental ability.

10, basic medicine vs clinical medicine

Basic medicine major: short academic system, focusing on basic medical theories and skills, mainly studying pathology, the root of diseases, the mechanism of occurrence and development and how to prevent and treat them. It focuses on experiments, and its subject content intersects with biology, medicine and pharmacy. After graduation, I mainly engaged in research, teaching and experiment in scientific research institutes and hospitals.
