Excitement or anxiety is an abnormal emotional and psychological state of freshmen. After entering the university campus for a period of time, the sense of excitement will gradually decrease and the sense of anxiety will vary from person to person. In short, all this is a natural expression, and there is no need for anxiety.
At the beginning of school, at the invitation of Liu Occupation, the author wants to talk about career planning with freshmen.
There has always been a lack of career education in the curriculum of primary and secondary schools in China, so when we enter the university campus, career planning is completely unfamiliar to some students, and the rest of the students have little knowledge of career planning. Ask yourself: Why did I choose this school and why did I choose this major? How many students chose it because it conforms to my career plan? Judging from the author's investigation results of college entrance examination freshmen's voluntary choice in recent three years, few students give this answer.
Since our primary and secondary education is seriously lacking in career education, we should make up for this knowledge independently under the guidance of the school when we step into the university campus. There are two basic tasks to be accomplished in the freshman stage: making a good four-year study plan, knowing yourself and exploring the professional world.
The first is academic planning. After all, the primary and fundamental task of a university is to study. As soon as we set foot on the university campus, we began to establish our first impression of the university. Just like "a thousand readers have a thousand Hamlets", universities leave different first impressions on different students.
Today, with the development of internet information technology, I believe that students have seen countless people's descriptions of universities before entering the university campus. These descriptions are both positive and negative, which requires us to screen them ourselves. When we enter the university, we must "clear" other people's descriptions. Only what we see and feel is your own impression of the university.
The curriculum structure of universities is generally that freshmen emphasize general education. First of all, we should build a framework of university knowledge system for students. There will be many large classes and even lectures at this stage, with the focus on broadening horizons and establishing values. Freshman's curriculum keywords are summarized as professional knowledge enlightenment and cultivating correct values.
After the professional knowledge of freshmen is enlightened, the courses of sophomores will gradually focus on the study of professional courses. Students of different majors have different specialized courses, and specialized courses are compulsory. Of course, general education continues, and the school also offers some elective courses for students. Some of these courses focus on the development of personal interests, and some are supplemented by professional courses.
Junior courses mainly focus on the study of professional knowledge and the training of professional skills. Many professional-related national examinations have to be taken, and students of science and engineering have a lot of experiments to operate. Junior year is the most important year in the whole university four years.
Senior year is the last academic year of university, and it is a transition point from campus to workplace. Academically, it is mainly to prepare graduation thesis (graduation design) and complete several courses. The focus and center of the senior year are all around finding a job. In the first semester, job hunting is mainly reflected in school recruitment. In the second semester, some students who failed in school recruitment began to run social recruitment. Of course, students who have decided to go to graduate school will have some differences with the emphasis of their senior year. For students who decide to go to graduate school, the focus of their senior year is still on learning. The first semester should be preparing for the exam, and the second semester depends on personal circumstances. In short, senior three is a transition point for all students.
