Primary education and pedagogy are two different majors, each with its own emphasis and advantages and disadvantages. The specific differences are as follows:

1. Primary education majors mainly study the knowledge and teaching methods of primary schools, as well as some knowledge of educational psychology and educational management. After graduation, you can engage in education and teaching in primary schools.

2. Pedagogy majors pay more attention to theoretical research, discussing educational phenomena, the nature of problems and solutions from the perspective of pedagogy, and there are also some contents such as educational psychology and educational management. After graduation, you can engage in education management, research and other work.

Which major to choose is better, depending on personal interests and career planning. If you want to engage in basic education and teaching, you'd better choose primary education major; If you are interested in educational theory and research, or want to engage in educational management and research, then you can choose pedagogy as your major.
