▶ Your Answer :
The educational systems have been modified significantly to adapt to
the rapid change of the world. Some people still argue that it is important for
students to keep study only one major to develop unique professional
knowledges. However, in my opinion, it is better for students to have broad
knowledge of many academic subjects for the following two reasons.
To
begin with, many industries, in these days, are intermingled with each other,
stipulating students to study at least more than two majors. As many careers in
our society represents the relationship with other fields of jobs, students
must be prepared for this highly challenging requirement by broadening their
knowledge about other study. For instance, my uncle who is engaged in finance
was demanded to be proficient in operating computers followed by the phenomenon
that many other fields started to develop in accordance with computerized
systems. It effected on educational institution as well, showing many
university students in Account major already started to learn Computer Science
as an auxiliary major to get adapted to newly formed atmosphere quickly.
On
top of that, people can be flexible to various circumstances in the future. Not
all fields are complete enough to be stable for a long time. No one know what
will happen on our society and it is better for people have to get accustomed
to shifting to new career in case of emergence situations. To be specific, my
mother's first job was nurse in a university hospital and when our country went
through the economic crisis in 1990s, she lost her job by restructuring.
However, she could get alternative occupation as a mathematics teaching
assistance in a local elementary school since she held bachelor's degree on
Math Education. My mother was able to react to this sudden accident properly
with her extensive educational experience.
To
sum up, many fields of works have close relationship with others, ordering
people to get used to other domains. Also, people have to be adaptable to unexpectable
events in upcoming moments by taking wide range of study. In this regard, I
think people should have extensive range of knowledge of many academic matters.
