Cultivate healthy individuals
The goal of undergraduate education in American universities is to cultivate sound individuals and make them qualified citizens of civilized society.
Extensive education
American college students have no major when they enter universities, but only study some public subjects according to certain requirements. These subjects generally cover several departments: literature, art, history, philosophy, humanities, society, mathematics, science and other fields. After extensive education, students can understand themselves, society and the connotation of various disciplines more clearly.

College students in China have already decided on a certain major before entering the school. Moreover, from the first semester of college, I began to study specialized courses. However, after American college students determine their majors, students begin to study specialized courses. However, the proportion of specialized courses generally does not exceed 1/3 of all courses. Therefore, it is conceivable that the students trained by American university education have obvious advantages in terms of knowledge width and balance.
