The issue we are discussing whether universities should require students to take varities of courses outside the student's field of study is causing a heated discussion. I, in this issue, have a preference for claiming that a truly educated student is more competitive than those who knows nothing but his or her field of study. My preference on this issue is derived primarily from evaluation over students, society, and discipline itself, respectively.
No graduated student would reject an offer delived from a famous corporation 100 tops in the world with high salary, however, before some one could grasp it, he or she must spare no effort to learn something new to work for it. A student, for example, who are major in journalism, it is beneficial for them to take a veriety of courses concerning Laws, relationship, or finance, which is a crucial supplement to journalism. Imagining that students equipped themseleves with kinds of knowledge outside their field of study, and it is easy to handle with problems except for their disciplines. By contrast, a person who devote enthusiasm to his discipline and reject to learn other disciplines would confront with a delimma in the long run, when his enterprise would be narrowed because new situation cannot be deal with approprite.
We are now experiencing a Postindustrial society which requires a population with information-based skills. As for our college students, taking a variety of courses outside the field of study is a form of gaining information and hence help us be more adapt for current society. Under the circustmance of information-based society, if any of us resist learning other courses, our mind would be restrained by ourseleves, and inevitablly the whole society cannot achieve its progress via critical thinking. Someone may cast doubt on that too much information would make a fuss, however, much more information means more chances and choices. Of course, i do not deny the fact that there exists somebody showed great enthusiasm to his field of study and acquired a giant success in his field finally. Granted that this kind of people succeed without taking more other courses, us ordinary people could be more competitive if everyone of us absorb as much as information we can.
Beyond that, it is helpful to develop discipline itself. There is a tendency that when we study another course which we are not major in, we would use knowledge that we learned to account for it. The interaction of two system of knowledge would truly created a new discipline which had never been noticed, for example chemico biology. In the process of this combination, many meaningful inter-discipline emerged and highly enlarged the currently existing system of disciplines.
In a nutshell, from what has been discussed above, universities should require students to take a variety of courses outside their field of study. Only in this way, can the students be a more competitive person, the society goes on progressing, and the system of discipline be more and more colorful.
