3+ 1 project, that is, studying in China for 3 years and studying abroad 1 year. At present, 3+ 1 courses offered by domestic universities are basically Scottish Higher Education Diploma (SQA) or British Higher Education Diploma (BTEC HND) introduced from Britain. In Britain, SQA and HND are both two-year college degrees. After the introduction of China, universities in China need three years. In the first year, students attend the preparatory course and all learn English. In the second and third years, students can get a diploma of SQA or HND after graduation in the third year. With this diploma and English scores, they can apply for a one-year "bridging" course in the UK. However, due to the nature of SQA and HND courses, they are basically vocational courses in Britain, and many basic courses, such as advanced mathematics, macroeconomics, microeconomics, statistics and probability theory, are not offered at all. Therefore, the British universities that students can contact after graduation are generally employment-oriented "new" universities, so these universities are relatively lacking in academic and comprehensive reputation. For example, students in these two courses can apply to the best universities in Britain. Graduates of "3+ 1" will suffer a lot if they want to apply to research universities with better rankings. Because most of the basic subjects have not been studied, good universities will require these "3+ 1" students to start from their sophomore year, and about 20 famous schools will also require them to start from their freshman year. So students with 3+ 1 will become 3+2 or 3+3 when they enter a good university. Parents who want their children to further improve their academic background through studying abroad should consider the future of 3+ 1 and the problems of accredited institutions.
