First of all, the university should learn several basic but important courses.
One is language, including Chinese and foreign languages; One is philosophy, which is a scientific science, and philosophical thinking is very important to people, no matter whether you study science or literature; Another is that mathematics, mathematics and philosophy are all basic disciplines, which are also related to people's thinking problems. Of course, different majors have different requirements, but students in all disciplines should lay a good foundation in language, philosophy and mathematics. This is the basis of your lifelong learning and development.
Secondly, we should lay a solid professional foundation during our college years.
There are two points to pay attention to in professional study: first, read classic works, and each major has some classic works. For example, China's literature, history and philosophy are actually derived from the Analects of Confucius, Zhuangzi, Laozi and other books, which are all classics; The other is to master the methods of professional learning, and master the methods of professional learning through the study of specific disciplines and courses. In this way, in terms of specialty, you have laid a good foundation, have classic works as the foundation, and mastered the methods at the same time, so you can continue to study in the future.
Third, read a lot during college.
You can learn from Tao Yuanming's experience of "reading without seeking a very good solution". In Lu Xun's words, it is "browsing casually". Opening a book is beneficial, not seeking a solution. Good study is like this. While reading the basic classics honestly and thoroughly, you can read a lot, be interested in everything and try your best to broaden your horizons. Efforts from these two aspects have laid a good foundation. If you are still interested, go to graduate school. Postgraduates need professional training, and doctoral students need to be knowledgeable on the basis of specialization. A person's knowledge structure should be designed according to different stages of life, which is a very important problem.
Generally speaking, in addition to classroom learning, universities should learn to teach themselves more. Self-study depends more on reading and learning, so we should use all kinds of resources to read more relevant books and extracurricular books to enrich our knowledge structure. If your reading ability is poor, it is very necessary to cultivate and improve your reading ability, because reading ability is the basic ability and the key ability in learning. For college students, it is suggested to learn and master the skills of "fast reading" to improve reading efficiency and ability. Practice can look at the "elite fast reading training" I used. It is very easy to practice reading at a speed of one or two thousand words per minute. This is of great benefit to your study.
