The difference between vocational and technical colleges and ordinary universities
Vocational and technical college is a higher education institution with the main goal of cultivating technical talents with practical skills and professional quality. Compared with ordinary colleges and universities, vocational and technical colleges pay more attention to the cultivation of students' practical ability and career orientation. Vocational and technical colleges usually offer industry-related vocational and technical courses, and work closely with employers to adjust and improve the curriculum according to market demand. During the study in vocational and technical college, students should not only accept theoretical knowledge, but also practice.
The educational system of vocational and technical colleges is generally three or four years. After graduation, students can directly engage in employment in related industries, or they can choose to continue their studies.

In a word, vocational and technical colleges play an important role in cultivating practical skills and adapting to market demand, and provide a large number of technical and skilled personnel for the society.
