Faculties in a college or a university normally have two jobs: one is conducting research in their academic field, the other is teaching student in class. Nowadays, the issue that faculties are required to spend time working outside their academic field in professions related to courses they teach has been widely discussed and aroused. Some people assert that college teachers should not work in professions. The only thing they need to do is teaching their students well. While others hold the opinion that it is beneficial for professors to spend times on professional job relevant to courses they teach. Considering the potential benefits of requiring faculties spend times outside their academic world, I fundamentally agree with the statement.

To begin with, giving a lecture is different from doing research. Educators need a good communication ability to deliver a lesson. Maybe a professor is really good at research but his/her communication skill is poor. In this scenario, even though the professor has tons of useful knowledge, he/she cannot teach his/her students well. Educator is different from a scientist or a researcher. For example, a good English teacher dose not has to be a good author. Because an educator dose not need to write a novel well but can fully understand the novel and teach students how to appreciate the novel. Vice versa, a good novelist may not be an excellent teacher because he/she can only create beautiful novels but cannot teach others find the beauty of them. Spending time outside academic field in professions help teachers developing their communications skills because in a working environment, people have to communicate very well in order to finish a task. The good communication skill helps professors organize and deliver classes better. A good communication skill from professional working makes historical facts or scientific theories much easier to understand by students in class.

Moreover, a working experience helps professors providing more information to students who want to start a career after graduate from school. According to a recent survey, students graduate from a professor are more likely to find a job than those students graduate from a professor who concentrate on research only. Professors have working experience know the market better and fully understand what is needed by the current market. So, he/she can train his/her student in a proper way in order to meet the market’s need.

In addition, a deeper understanding of market also contribute faculties select their research topic. They can choose “hot” topics to research in order to get more funding. So spending times outside academic world is not only good for students they teach but also benefits themselves.

Summing up, faculties should be encouraged to spend time outside academic world. The potential benefits is not only on students they teach but also on faculties themselves.
