When we are consulting students, many students feel that their major can skip the major selection in the postgraduate entrance examination, and choose schools and regions directly in this step. This idea is completely wrong. First, you may not understand the relationship between major and employment at all, although you have studied this major for two or three years. Today, there are still many students majoring in education who think that graduate students of education come out as teachers. It was a big misunderstanding. Pre-school education, kindergarten special education and special education schools (schools for the deaf and blind, etc.) are excluded. ), other disciplines of pedagogy focus on educational theory, mainly focusing on "what kind of talents to train and what methods to educate", which is not suitable for teaching practice. If the employment intention is to be a primary and secondary school teacher, we should choose a major corresponding to the primary and secondary school subjects. For example, if you want to be a Chinese teacher in a middle school, you should choose China Language and Literature as your major. If you want to be a physics teacher, you should choose a physics major. Don't expect Wen to think that the Institute of Education is out to be a teacher. The employment direction of education postgraduates is mainly educational research institutions (such as local educational institutions), educational administrative units at all levels (such as local education bureaus and education departments) and news and publishing institutions that are biased towards education (such as local education publishing houses).
Second, even if you have a good understanding of the relationship between major and graduate employment, it will not be all right, because the major settings of undergraduate and graduate students are very different. The specialty setting of undergraduate course is set according to the mode of "college-department-specialty", and the main consideration is to facilitate enrollment, management and teaching; The major setting of graduate students is in accordance with the model of "discipline category-first-class discipline-two disciplines", and the major of graduate students is basically two disciplines and additional major based on two disciplines. The two are not a system at all, and there is a dislocation. If you choose a postgraduate major completely according to the undergraduate major, you may not find a postgraduate major with the same name at all, and there is a great possibility of missing the choice. For example, students majoring in English will suddenly find that they can't find an English major at all when they choose a postgraduate major. This is because of the dislocation between undergraduate and postgraduate majors. In fact, English majors have at least the following choices: English language and literature, foreign linguistics and applied linguistics, subject teaching (English), business English research, English translation and English interpretation. And you will find that the employment and living conditions of these majors are very different. If you choose subject education (oral English), then the future employment should be mainly English teachers in primary and secondary schools, and life is relatively stable and calm; If you choose English translation or English interpretation, then the future employment should be dominated by enterprises or institutions, and challenges and opportunities coexist.
For another example, when undergraduates majoring in business administration took the postgraduate entrance examination, they found that many schools did not have graduate students in this major. Some students even think that business administration is an MBA for graduate students, which confuses academics and masters. They are told that MBA requires work experience and that fresh graduates can't take the exam, which makes people laugh and cry. As a matter of fact, business administration is a first-class discipline in postgraduate major setting. Except for a few schools that specialize in first-class subjects, most schools will take two disciplines as their major. Therefore, undergraduate students majoring in business administration should apply for two disciplines subjects under business administration, including accounting, business administration, financial management, marketing, human resource management and tourism management.
There are also some undergraduate majors, which belong to interdisciplinary subjects, such as electronic information engineering, which is an interdisciplinary subject of electronic science and technology and communication engineering, while graduate enrollment units recruit not many electronic information engineering majors. The reason why there are many schools for undergraduates in this major is that they don't need to cross with scientific research, but only need teachers of electronic communication, electronics and communication to teach separately. However, graduate students are different. To recruit this major, the enrollment unit needs to have strong strength in electronics and communication, and it also needs to cross in research. If we only pay attention to the enrollment units of electronic information engineering, we will miss many good choices. Because in the postgraduate entrance examination, the choice of this major includes not only electronic information engineering, but also circuits and systems, microelectronics and solid-state electronics, electromagnetic field and microwave technology, communication and information system, signal and communication processing, etc. So don't take it for granted that the major of postgraduate entrance examination is to choose this major.
