Is school priority or major important? How to maximize the benefits of volunteering in university newspapers?
Being a volunteer is complicated. After all, there are 2740 colleges and universities with more than 500 majors, which makes you dizzy. But in fact, as long as you understand the core issues, it is relatively simple to deal with. Because college entrance examination scores have limited the scope of voluntary choice, we can make appropriate choices by clarifying the following important principles.

School articles

The second principle we need to understand is the school. In the face of endless employment discrimination, we have to face the reality and put the school first.

Classic question: School priority or major priority?

The first professional question (how should I volunteer? There is no need to be too entangled in the choice of majors. In fact, this problem is relatively clear. When you have an advantage in your grades and have the right to choose, ordinary schools are the first choice or our first choice, so don't worry too much about your major.

1. The reason for choosing a school first is not only that what you study does not determine what you have to do, nor does it determine your success. More importantly, the current recruitment will often tell us what school you graduated from, and we have to face it, otherwise you will not even be qualified for competition.

The large-scale expansion of enrollment 20 years ago made China's higher education enter the track of rapid development. Last year, the national enrollment was 910.5 million, which was nine times that before the large-scale enrollment expansion, and the gross enrollment rate reached 510.6%. China has become the first populous country in the world to popularize higher education. There are 8.74 million college graduates this year, and the number of returned students should be close to 600,000, totaling more than 9 million, accounting for almost 85% of our new labor force.

Heroes don't ask the source, but today, everyone is a college student. Being born in a graduate school has become the first threshold for many enterprises to select in recruitment. Without this identity, we don't even have a chance to compete.

Last year, a famous Internet company turned down a doctor from Shanghai Jiaotong University in the recruitment, just because his undergraduate degree was a double-non-university or a vivid example. It is wrong or even illegal to watch a person's birth. The Ministry of Education and relevant state departments have repeatedly asked not to set recruitment thresholds and not to look at their origins, but all employers and even governments at all levels have turned a blind eye.

In 20 18, Shijiazhuang issued 16 talent introduction policies, which defined the standards: 38 college graduates belong to the talents needed by Shijiazhuang, not only buying houses, but also subsidizing renting houses, even taking the subway and visiting scenic spots are free.

In the same year, Shanghai adjusted its settlement policy, directly introduced some outstanding talents, and stopped queuing to calculate points. The core criteria are fresh graduates from Peking University and Tsinghua. Note that the master's and doctor's degree of Tsinghua Peking University is useless, and it must be a fresh undergraduate. The reason behind it is actually very simple. Tsinghua University only recruits 3,700 undergraduates a year, but the number of graduate students is as high as 8,000, which is different from the Shanghai authorities.

In order to train the Party's reserve cadres, not only government departments at all levels, but also organizational departments have introduced the Selected Graduates system, that is, selecting outstanding university graduates from the grassroots level and reserving outstanding cadres for the future, which can be said to be in the civil service? Essence? . In 20 19, there were more than 400 indicators of Selected Graduates in Shandong province, 60 of which directly pointed to Peking University and Tsinghua. In addition, only 20 university graduates are eligible to register. The qualification of Selected Graduates by the Organization Department of jiangsu provincial party committee is defined as 15 985, and that of Shanghai Municipal Committee is defined as 10 985.

We are firmly opposed to employment discrimination, but if we don't graduate from these prestigious schools, we are not qualified to apply for certain positions. The reality is cruel.

2. Schools have priority. There is another reason. The soft environment provided by famous universities is beyond the reach of ordinary universities, including atmosphere, vision, learning and development opportunities, the influence of surrounding classmates and teachers and so on.

3, the school is preferred, because the undergraduate background is our lifelong label, but we have a wide range of opportunities to adjust professionally. Therefore, in the context of your excellent grades, you should first consider the school, not the major.

Some common sense and suggestions on choosing a school

1. I said that school is the priority, and I can give up my major, mainly according to the main threshold set by the society when recruiting, such as 985,211,double first-class, excluding the so-called one book and two books.

985,211is a definite list, but you may not be familiar with the "double-class" introduced on 20 17, that is, first-class universities and first-class disciplines.

The construction of first-class universities can be simply compared to the past 985 plus three newly selected universities, namely Zhengzhou University, Yunnan University and Xinjiang University. First-class academic institutions are equal to the original 2 1 1 institution plus 25 institutions. These 25 universities are mainly composed of universities with outstanding academic characteristics. In fact, the only comprehensive universities are Ningbo University and Henan University. The guiding purpose of "double first-class" is very clear. I hope that colleges and universities will no longer be large and comprehensive, but highlight their characteristics.

One copy and two copies are only a concept in the process of enrollment, not a strict concept of school grade quality. There has never been a definite list of two books in China, and a list of two books in each province is definitely different, so most employers cannot set this threshold.

There are many colleges and universities that enroll students in one or two universities. How do we define this college as one or two universities? For example, when Peking University enrolled students in Beijing, its nursing major was enrolled in two universities. Is it true that Peking University is two universities? Therefore, there is no need to say that you will give up your favorite major because of which school is one.

With the implementation of the new college entrance examination, the concept of "one copy and two copies" has completely disappeared.

2. For the general double-non-universities, I give an appraisal suggestion, that is, look at history.

Education is accumulation. Among these 2,740 colleges and universities, about 74% are the products of large-scale enrollment expansion, with a history of less than 20 years or only 20 years. More than 60% of undergraduate colleges have a history of less than 20 years, so we can make a judgment from this angle.

There is also the affiliation of the school in the past. In the late 1990s, due to the adjustment of university management, a large number of subordinate universities were either placed under the Ministry of Education or devolved to local governments. The transfer to the Ministry of Education has basically developed smoothly, and universities in scattered areas, especially in economically underdeveloped areas, have gradually declined for various reasons. In fact, these schools have a heavy historical accumulation, and the overall style of study and school spirit are good, which is worth choosing.

3. In addition, there are some schools in the double-non-universities that deserve special attention. Their educational level and quality are far higher than those of many double-class universities.

These schools can be roughly divided into two categories: one is Sino-foreign cooperative education, such as The Chinese University of Hong Kong (Shenzhen), nyu shanghai, unnc and so on. There is also a class of schools that have established a new system in recent years, such as south university of science and technology of china in China and Shanghai University of Science and Technology. The history of these schools is not long, but because of the different systems, strong capital investment and excellent organizers, they have won quickly and developed rapidly, and the future is worth looking forward to.

Finally, emphasize that the premise of giving priority to a school is that it is worth giving up your major options. For most students who can only choose ordinary colleges or higher vocational colleges, it is more important to focus on majors. The main reason is that the differences between most schools at this level are relatively small, and there is only equivalence, so there is no need to give up professional considerations.
