12.16 关于大学生有没有必要学basic science courses，不学就可以学专业知识.

A heated debate that whether students in university should learn basic science course before they begin to learn professional academic theory is under way. Considering the superior effects brought by learning basic science course preponderate over the impacts that learning professional academic knowledge directly, I completely agree with the statement that when we entered the university, we should learn basic course before going ahead to learn professional knowledge.

To begin with, it is undeniable that basic science course can not only provide us some indirect knowledge related to our professional academic, but also help us to cultivate our right thinking approaches. Take my experience for example. In my university, we were compelled to learn physics in the first year, although I was majored in chemistry. The physics, which I considered a difficult course to go though, was a course need more logical analysis than I had estimated. During the process of learning advanced physics, I was surprised to find that it was easier for me to learn my major chemistry, for I became more likely to use analytic method while dealing with chemical problems.

Furthermore, it is indisputable that basic science courses, such as physics, chemistry and geometry, are the rudimentary disciplines for the advanced professional knowledge. In other word, seldom could anybody be a specialist in his field if he didn't master the basic science knowledge well. Take my major chemistry for another instance. As we know, more and more companies in food industry need chemical knowledge to do some research on protecting food from infecting by sorts of bacteria. However, before stating to do the research on food science, we should learn physics, math and other related disciples. Without those basic curriculums, we will fell confused and embarrassed while facing difficulties on the research.

Judging from the evidence I offered above, it is obvious to find the merits of learning basic science courses before we start to accept more advanced knowledge. That’s the reason why most universities require its students choose a number of basic courses as their required curriculums.
