In these days, complex and specialized period, we do not need a person who is generalist but a person who has depth-knowledge. Of course, having numerous knowledges can be advantages and looks like very smart, but, these people usually do not be demanded in our epoch. In this sense, I firmly support the idea of many of higher education must be encouraged to students. This is because it is more suitable in this period and it could be the most adavantage to people for their entire lives.
First of all, As modern times becoming more complex and diverse, We need a person who has very specific knowledge of their sphere. This is the fact that lots of information can be distorted by internet or mess-media, so we could be exposed by inaccurate information easily rather than before. This bad phenomenon can be continued more and more. In this sense, we need a information that is more reliable and accurate. Higher education such as university or collge, can be a great role to this matter. For example, Lee Myung Bak, who is president of korea, say he learned many of his economic ideas by studying his major economy very hard when he was university student.
Second, as modern society is growing rapidly that we cannot expect, we have to ready our longer life than before. Acoording to research, which is conducted by KBS, korea national brocast system, say that people life span would be 10years longer after 50years due to medical developmet. This shows that we have to make our life more organized and systemic. In this period, there are no forever workplace. people easily move their company than past times and he or she can be fired for their incompetence. In this regard, people must get something that can be best advantages for them. For example, perfect english skill or proficiency of computer can be great merit to survive in this competitive period.
To conclusion, As i mentioned above, in thise era, we need a person who has depth-knowledge in that it not only can be contributed to this complex society but also a someone's quality life.Special and more specific knowldege must be enforced by Higer edcation to all of students. |
