Generally speaking, the biggest difference between university education and undergraduate education is that one is biased towards practice and the other is biased towards general education. The undergraduate course focuses on theory, while the junior college focuses on practice. Take similar majors as an example, the undergraduate course is called hotel management, and the specialist course is collectively referred to as tourism management. College courses also have theoretical parts, and there are many practical courses. Undergraduate students also have practical courses, but there are many theories.
In today's society, practical talents are still in short supply, while theoretical talents are a little saturated, so junior college students are making greater contributions to society at present. Of course, this should also be divided into majors.
2. Different professional settings
Some majors, undergraduate courses and junior colleges are gone. On the contrary, the situation still exists, and its essence is the difference between theory and practice, macro and micro.
For example, undergraduate schools have tourism management in a macro sense, and when they arrive at junior colleges, there will be two majors: hotel management and travel agency management. Undergraduate schools have economics in a macro sense, and junior colleges have accounting majors in a micro sense, so I won't list them here. Some high-end disciplines, such as atomic physics and biochemistry, are hard to find, because the training direction of undergraduate and professional courses is different. Specialized courses mainly provide talents who can directly serve the society. The academic system is short, and the theoretical knowledge is not as deep as that of undergraduate courses, which is somewhat repetitive.
3. Different social treatment
Moreover, the social recognition of undergraduate education is often higher than that of junior college education. As can be seen from the requirements of various examination qualifications, many vocational qualification certificates require the starting point of undergraduate education, or the major has a higher working life. However, it is even more difficult for universities and institutions. For example, in the current recruitment, the threshold in most areas has been raised to the undergraduate level. Even now, any better private enterprise requires a bachelor's degree or above.
4. How to distinguish junior college and undergraduate course from policy?
The main goal of the university is to cultivate technical talents, that is, the goal of the university is practical. It is to train a group of talents with university knowledge and certain professional skills on the basis of completing secondary education. The teaching of knowledge is based on sufficiency and practicality. There are two main forms of university education: higher vocational education and junior college education, that is, students who study junior college in ordinary colleges obtain junior college education after graduation.
College education is a professional education that is shorter than undergraduate education on the basis of complete secondary education. Like undergraduate education and postgraduate education, it is an important part of China's higher education system.
Undergraduate education is the basic part of higher education, which is generally implemented by universities or colleges. Few higher vocational colleges have developed applied undergraduate education. Undergraduate education is more important than general education of theoretical majors, and applied undergraduate education is more important than applied professional education and practical skills education. Students can generally get undergraduate diploma and bachelor's degree certificate after normal graduation.
In China, undergraduate education is mainly divided into full-time undergraduate education and part-time undergraduate education. Full-time undergraduates are usually admitted by the national college entrance examination, independent enrollment or exemption. The school system lasts for 4-6 years, and students study at school, which is the most common way of education. In addition, junior college students can receive undergraduate education through the two-year unified entrance examination. Part-time undergraduate courses are mainly divided into,, amateur education, open education and other types. There is no fixed period of study, and there are various learning methods. Students can study in relevant educational institutions or study by themselves.
Generally speaking, the difference between college degree and undergraduate degree is quite big. In today's society where diplomas are increasingly valued, many people choose to realize their undergraduate dreams by taking the entrance examination, which is completely feasible.
