I want to be a teacher in the future. If I want to take the postgraduate entrance examination now, should I choose pedagogy as my direction? What is the employment direction of education graduate students? Both are acceptable. When our school recruits, graduate students majoring in education will enroll in other disciplines, but the other disciplines you choose are best related to the disciplines you want to teach in the future. For example, if you want to be a chemistry teacher, you can do materials chemistry, analytical chemistry, structural chemistry and organic chemistry. Of course, the teacher qualification certificate is necessary.

Another small suggestion, the employment pressure of the teaching profession is also great now, and the graduate degree can't give you a lot of points. When recruiting people in our school, we attach great importance to the teaching ability and the temperament of the whole person, so we have time to practice more.

No matter what jobs students take after graduation, they mainly fall into two categories.

Within the education system:

(1) Primary and secondary school teachers

No matter what your undergraduate major is, no matter what you studied during your postgraduate study, it is ok.

(2) There are teachers, counselors and teaching assistants in the university system (generally for masters). Teachers in universities are well paid, with high salaries and high social status, which many students yearn for. For some individual majors, such as preschool education, vocational and technical education, adult education, etc. Three colleges and universities recruit graduate students.

But if you want to go to some very good university teachers, you have to study PhD. College counselors: Higher education is the most relevant to counselors, but other majors are also possible, but the requirements are higher. Teaching assistant: many majors are ok, and there are opportunities for further study in the later stage. There are many opportunities and choices.

(3) Civil servants in the education system (Ministry of Education, Department of Education, Education Bureau, Education Committee, etc.). ) Some institutions under the Ministry of Education can directly recruit fresh graduates, as well as district education committees and local education bureaus. In addition, after graduate students have corresponding working experience in these departments (generally more than three years), they can also enter the higher-level civil servants of the state departments through provincial and national examinations.

(4) Relevant research institutes (both masters and masters can) pay attention to a misunderstanding. Both masters and masters can do research, but one more year of master's degree will give them more opportunities and time to do related research. You can go to some related research institutes to develop teaching materials or courses and so on.

(5) Publishing houses, magazines and editorial departments (as well as education-related majors, both specialized and learned) must first love education-related disciplines, have corresponding literary and writing abilities, and have good professional qualities. For example, go to the Higher Education Press.

(6) Going abroad (both masters and masters have opportunities) Opportunities for schools to go abroad are generally posted on the open platform of the school. Students who have the strength and meet the requirements can basically apply, instead of taking one exam. Of course, some good schools, such as 985 or 2 1 1 colleges, will definitely have more platform opportunities.

Of course, relatively speaking, comparative education, such as Mr. Xue, is a major with high requirements for small languages such as English or German, and there are relatively more opportunities to go abroad. As long as you pay more attention to relevant information and consciously improve your foreign language level, you will have a chance.

(7) Doctor (both master and master can do it), but relatively speaking, the chance of master is greater.

(8) The training industry is a sunrise industry with broad development prospects. For example, diligent thinking is a leader in the field of postgraduate education and training.

Outside the education system:

I just want a graduate degree, and it's relatively easy to take an examination of graduate students who like education. It doesn't take math exams, and the exams are relatively standardized. There will be no situation where review materials can't be found, and there are mature tutoring like diligent thinking. No matter what major, you can cross the exam and get started easily.

Therefore, some students will also choose some better comprehensive colleges. Although the education major is not particularly good, it may have a strong reputation or comprehensive strength, and what to do after coming out has been roughly planned. It has nothing to do with undergraduate or graduate majors. The key is to see whether your education is 985 or 2 1 1, and your personal strengths and abilities.

Therefore, employment outside the education system mainly depends on academic qualifications and ability or personal connections at home. Students who intend to do this can take advantage of various opportunities during their postgraduate period to carry out relevant internships and practices. On the one hand, you can exercise your ability and accumulate relevant work experience, on the other hand, you can find what you really want to do through a lot of internships and practice. In this case, planning and self-control ability are the key to success.

The CPC Central Committee and the State Council attached great importance to the employment and entrepreneurship of college graduates. The State Council successively issued the Implementation Opinions on Deepening the Reform of Innovation and Entrepreneurship Education in Higher Education (Guo Fa [2015] No.36) and Opinions on Doing a Good Job in Employment and Entrepreneurship at Present and in the Future (Guo Fa [2017] No.28), and the General Offices of the General Office of the Central Committee of the CPC and the State Council issued Opinions on Further Guidance and Encouragement.

The Ministry of Education has implemented the spirit of relevant policy documents in the State Council, issued the Notice on Doing a Good Job in Employment and Entrepreneurship of College Graduates in 20 17, and deployed the employment and entrepreneurship of college graduates. In terms of increasing support for college students' "innovation", promoting "Industry-University-Research" cooperation, promoting investment, and building innovative practice platforms, the following work has been mainly carried out.

1. Increase support for college students' employment and entrepreneurship. First, do a good job in subsidizing college graduates' employment and entrepreneurship, encourage local governments to provide one-time entrepreneurship subsidies to qualified college graduates, encourage qualified places to guide social capital investment through financial investment, and set up employment and entrepreneurship funds for college graduates. Incorporate poor disabled families, college graduates from poor families who have set up files and set up cards, and college graduates from poor people into the subsidy model for job hunting and entrepreneurship.

The second is to increase subsidies for institutions that receive college graduates. For small and micro enterprises that employ college graduates in the graduation year, sign labor contracts for more than 1 year and pay social insurance for them, the maximum social insurance subsidy is given 1 year. A certain amount of social insurance subsidies will be given to units that recruit unemployed college graduates who leave school to participate in employment internships 1 year and pay the basic living expenses of interns during their probation.

Third, encourage college students to find jobs and start businesses at the grassroots level, explicitly require local colleges and universities to implement policies such as tuition compensation for graduates' employment at the grassroots level below the county level, compensation for national student loans, and extra points for postgraduate entrance examination, encourage urban and rural communities to engage in education, culture, medical care, healthy old-age care, encourage rural areas to engage in poverty alleviation and development, science and technology promotion, e-commerce and other undertakings, and guide graduates to find jobs and start businesses in the central and western regions, northeast regions and hard and remote areas.

2. Actively promote "Industry-University-Research" cooperation. In order to further promote the "Industry-University-Research" cooperation and collaborative education, and pool social resources to support the comprehensive professional reform and innovation and entrepreneurship education in colleges and universities, the Ministry of Education has implemented the cooperation and collaborative education project between industry and learning since 20 14, and promoted the reform of talent training in colleges and universities with the latest needs of industrial and technological development.

In 20 16, more than 2000 projects were supported by more than 60 enterprises, and the funding was nearly 70 million yuan, involving about 580 colleges and universities. The first batch of 2017,89 enterprises supported more than 4,500 projects, with funding of about 260 million yuan.

3. Promote the construction of college students' venture capital promotion mechanism. First, it provides convenience for college students to invest in innovation and entrepreneurship, and opens up a "green channel" for college students' entrepreneurship in industrial and commercial registration, tax reduction and exemption, and entrepreneurship loans. Promote the improvement of college students' innovation and entrepreneurship service platform, and provide college students with entrepreneurial guidance, intermediary services, property rights transactions, investment services and other support.

The second is to set up a special fund for college students' innovation and entrepreneurship education. During the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" period, 50 million yuan will be allocated to support college students' innovation and entrepreneurship, promote colleges and universities around the country to make overall arrangements for funds through multiple channels, and fund college students' innovation and entrepreneurship projects. According to the investigation and statistics at the end of 20 16, colleges and universities across the country arranged a total of 7.04 billion yuan of special funds, and college students funded more than 260,000 innovative and entrepreneurial projects.

The third is to provide entrepreneurial guarantee loans for college students. In 20 16, the People's Bank of China, the Ministry of Finance and Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security jointly issued the Notice on Implementing Entrepreneurship Guarantee Loan to Support Entrepreneurship Employment (Yinfa [2065438+06] No.202), which included college graduates in the scope of loans and further enhanced the pertinence and effectiveness of the entrepreneurship guarantee loan policy.

The Ministry of Finance issued the Measures for the Administration of Special Funds for Development in inclusive finance (No.85 [20 16]) to further improve the financial discount policy for venture guarantee loans. Personal business guarantee loans are subsidized by special funds, with a maximum loan amount of 654.38+10,000 yuan and a term of no more than 3 years.

4. Build various innovative practice platforms. First, promote local universities to use various resources to build university science parks, student entrepreneurship parks, business incubation bases and small and micro enterprise entrepreneurship bases, and build a number of off-campus innovation and entrepreneurship practice bases for college students. According to the survey at the end of 20 16, there are nearly 14000 practice platforms for innovation and entrepreneurship education in colleges and universities nationwide.

The second is to organize an entrepreneurial competition. The 2nd China "internet plus" College Students' Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition was held in 20 16 to build a platform for college students' innovation and entrepreneurship projects to connect with investment institutions and enterprises. The first two competitions attracted more than 2 100 universities,150,000 projects and 750,000 college students to participate directly. More than 500 entrepreneurs and investors provide guidance, evaluation and investment services for students' innovative and entrepreneurial projects.

The third is to carry out the national college students' innovation and entrepreneurship training program. In 20 16, a total of 33,054 projects were approved, including 27,375 innovation training projects, 3,956 entrepreneurship training projects and 1723 entrepreneurship practice projects. There are more than 900 colleges and universities, involving students134,000, and the project funds are nearly 600 million yuan, which has promoted the transformation of scientific and technological achievements in colleges and universities and produced use value and market value.

5. Set a grace period to repay the principal to delay the student loan. According to the Opinions on Perfecting the National Student Loan Policy issued by the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Finance, the People's Bank of China and the China Banking Regulatory Commission (Guo Ban [2015] No.7), the longest loan period is extended from 14 to 20 years.

When the borrower graduates or terminates his studies, he shall confirm the repayment plan with the handling bank and agency, and the repayment period shall be implemented according to the contract signed by both parties. ""If the borrower does not continue to study for a degree in the year of graduation, he can choose to use the grace period to repay when confirming the repayment plan with the handling institution and the handling bank. Students who borrow money during the grace period only need to repay the interest, not the loan principal. The grace period for debt repayment was extended from 2 years to 3 years. "

College students from poor families who apply for student loans can choose the appropriate repayment plan according to the actual situation after graduation, reduce the repayment pressure, find a job with peace of mind, and innovate and start a business.

In the next step, we will continue to fully implement the decision-making arrangements of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, further strengthen the research with relevant departments in combination with your opinions and suggestions, make overall plans, take various measures simultaneously, and comprehensively implement policies to do a good job in the employment and entrepreneurship of college graduates.
