How about aquaculture major?
As a student of the College of Oceanography of Hebei Agricultural University, aquaculture major is the trump card major of our college, and I have the honor to be a student of aquaculture major. Aquaculture is a very good major. Aquaculture majors also have chemistry and biology, which is also a very good choice for students who like chemistry and biology. To tell the truth, the competitiveness of aquaculture majors is still relatively small, and they are generally majors with relatively low admission scores and relatively large social needs. After graduation, the employment rate of this major is relatively high, even for graduate students or doctoral students, it is easier than other majors.

I. Fields to be Involved in Aquaculture Specialty

The main task of aquaculture major is to cultivate the professional skills of animal breeding and the theoretical basis of basic science, and master the applied talents in feed research and development, genetic breeding, virus prevention and control and water environment regulation. The content of this major is mainly related to biology and chemistry, and it is necessary to learn various biological knowledge such as microorganisms, aquatic animal habits, physiology, pathology, freshwater aquaculture, marine aquaculture and so on. You will also study inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry, biochemistry and so on. This subject doesn't seem to be specialized in mathematics and chemistry. You don't need to worry too much. You only need to remember and recognize a little every day, and you can learn well. And as an agricultural subject, of course, there will be experimental classes. In the experimental class, we will know all kinds of aquatic animals, anatomy class and aquatic animal food processing class. Anyway, everything closely related to aquatic products will be involved in the experimental class.

Second, the advantages of aquaculture over other professions.

1, postgraduate entrance examination.

As far as 2022 is concerned, the total score of postgraduate entrance examination is 500, national economics is 360, literature is 367 and medicine is 309, while agriculture is only 252, which means that graduate students only need half of the total score of postgraduate entrance examination. For other majors, it is difficult to get into 2 1 1 or 985 colleges without getting 300 points or even 400 points in the postgraduate entrance examination. Aquaculture major, if you are in your early 300 s, you can apply for 2 1 1, which is close to 400 points, then you can consider 985 junior college. There are fewer students majoring in aquaculture, and the competitive pressure of this major is relatively small. Other majors are on your list. Aquaculture major only needs a little effort to be admitted to a good graduate student. If your college entrance examination results are not enough for you to go to a 2 1 1 985 college, then the aquaculture major can make you realize your dream of 2 1 1 985 when you take the postgraduate entrance examination.

2. Employment

At present, agronomy is more popular in all majors, because agronomy has a great demand for talents, and aquaculture is the best treatment in agronomy. After graduating from other majors, they all hope to have a good company to hire them, while students majoring in aquaculture are considering which good company to work in. People with higher education have a wide range of job choices, generally more than 10 thousand after graduation. Generally speaking, the employment rate of aquaculture is particularly high. After graduation, students majoring in aquaculture can engage in aquaculture, engage in research and development in aquaculture departments, teach and work in aquaculture colleges, or do technical analysis and management of aquaculture in some aquaculture companies, or work in some departments related to aquaculture.
