Fear of choosing the wrong major
As a 2nd year student, majoring in Physics, University of Sciences - Vietnam National University, Ho Chi Minh City, Nguyen Chi Tuong spends a lot of time researching related documents about his majors. Tuong said he was very confused about choosing a major. Not only did he research on the school's website, Tuong also consulted articles from universities around the world.
Similarly, Tran Minh Ngoc, a 2nd year student majoring in Physics, is also wondering which major to choose to enter his third year. "I'm very scared if I choose the wrong major. If I can't find interest in studying, it's difficult for me to grasp the content of the lesson" - Minh Ngoc said with a sigh.
Most students wonder about choosing a major. Some choose to consult online materials, others ask for advice from lecturers or previous students. However, the advice is relative, students themselves still have "concerns".
Because, if students choose the wrong major, they will not only waste time studying, but also not find their passion, and the possibility of going into the wrong major after graduation is very high.
The school creates job opportunities for students
Associate Professor Dr. Huynh Van Tuan, Dean, Faculty of Physics and Engineering Physics, University of Sciences Ho Chi Minh City - National University Ho Chi Minh City, said that the school always organizes specialized orientation festivals for students every year. This is a very important activity that helps guide students in the right direction.
Major orientation is not simply a matter of advice from lecturers or using outstanding achievements of previous students to attract students to choose. The school focuses on exploiting students' passion and scientific research ability in each field.
"The school lets students step into the laboratory and imagine what they will learn and do in the future. "Seeing, hearing, touching" is the best catalyst for them to feel their profession. " – Mr. Tuan shared.
When entering a major, if a student feels it is not suitable, they can choose to change their major, but this unintentionally wastes time and effort. Students can actively experience all 7 majors before making their decision.
According to Mr. Tuan, each major has its own research characteristics. At the Faculty of Physics and Engineering Physics, the Physics major has 7 majors including: Informatics physics, electronic physics, nuclear physics, applied physics, solid state physics, geophysics and theoretical physics. With many different majors, the major helps students have more choices in their future career orientation.
With the explosion of the 4.0 technology revolution, knowledge of physics is the foundation to help students access new technology and quickly catch up with trends in the world. In addition, some majors are also equipped with interdisciplinary knowledge, training students with knowledge related to programming or artificial intelligence (AI), helping students easily adapt to changing environments. work school.
In addition, the school also cooperates with businesses that thrive in the field of science and technology to organize seminars, discussions, experience programs, etc. to help students better understand their chosen profession. , and at the same time create job opportunities for students while still studying at the lecture hall.
Mr. Tuan emphasized the role of learning to prioritize practice and real-life contact. Students have time from 1.5 years - 2 years to learn theory. Choosing the right major is a way for students to approach reality and more easily find a job they love
