On April 22nd, 20 13, the Shanghai Municipal Education Commission issued the undergraduate early warning list for 20 13. The warned majors are 15: Japanese, information management and information system, business administration, art design, marketing, logistics management, administrative management, public enterprise management, electronic information engineering, environmental engineering, information and computing science, advertising, e-commerce, social work, transportation.
Extended information As far as the subject layout is concerned, these majors are indeed suspected of being "surplus". For example, the major of public enterprise management belongs to the category of management. Among the 24 universities in Shanghai, there are 13 universities with the first-class discipline of public utilities management. The same is true of electronic information engineering and information and computing science. There are 12 universities with computer science and technology and 10 universities with information and communication engineering in Shanghai.
The business administration major that was warned this time is the first-level discipline of Shanghai 14 university.
In addition, the "bad consequences" of the rapid expansion of art majors in colleges and universities in recent years have been reflected in the employment of graduates. This time, advertising and art design related to art majors were listed as "early warning majors".
Statistics show that more than 1000 colleges and universities in China have opened art majors and departments. In Shanghai, there are 19 universities offering art design majors. In the past two years, the signing rate of graduates was not ideal, and it was once close to the "warning line" of 60%.
According to the regulations of the Ministry of Education, majors whose employment rate is less than 60% for two consecutive years will reduce their enrollment plans until they stop enrolling students.
