What is "innocent"?

In February of this year, the Ministry of Education announced the results of the record and approval of the undergraduate majors of ordinary colleges and universities in 2021. The new 1961 professional points were added, and 804 professional points were revoked, involving a total of 2765 professional cloth points, accounting for 4.6%of the current total number of undergraduate professional cloths.

How should candidates and parents choose?

Admissions experts suggest that candidates and parents should maintain rationality on traditional majors and emerging majors, and analyze and judge based on their actual situation. At the same time, more and more colleges and universities adopt "big category enrollment", and students still have the opportunity to "secondary choice" after entering the school.

Traditional majors are not the same as the "sunset profession". Xu Yanbao believes that after the precipitation and inspection of traditional majors, it has advantages in the talent training plan, teachers and laboratory conditions, and social recognition is also high, not "unpopular".

The high span of emerging majors has put forward higher requirements for the quality of students. Zhao Zhongxiu believes that some new majors present obvious interdisciplinary cross -characteristics and require students to have strong comprehensive literacy. After enrollment, they need to be widely involved in theoretical knowledge of all aspects, and they must master practical skills.

The carbon storage science and engineering major opened by Chongqing University this year will be arranged in the "engineering and energy" category for enrollment. After entering the "engineering and energy" category to study for one year, students will be diverted to more than 10 majors to give students "two two Opportunities for choice. "In the future, we also plan to set up a master's and blog degree points for related majors to provide more opportunities for students."
