94"Universities should require every student to take a variety of courses outside the student's field of study because acquiring knowledge of various academic disciplines is the best way to become truly educated."



Education, especially in University, is a significant part in everyone's life. The quality of education in university determines a person's life to a momentous extent. Hence every parent takes the education of their children so seriously that they don't want to see any blemish in it. As far as I concern, study various courses outside one's main field is subservient to become truly educated.

Generally speaking, students usually don't know the details of the specialties they chose. It doesn't rare happen that they will dislike even loathe their specialties after study period of time. But students under these circumstances can not change their specialties or don't know which to choose in many universities. Nevertheless, some universities institute a method (which I appreciate) that students should study a number of specialties, which they can choose from different fields, in the first year, and opt for the one they really interested in. Just as everyone knows, interests are the most effective impetus.

Besides, the knowledge of diverse field they learn will benefit their future study and life. Courses like physics and mathematics acquaint us the authentic world and make us think rational as well. In addition, we also need the abilities of living in the human society, which can attain by taking courses in theology, psychology and philosophy. Furthermore, if we get in touch with literature, fine arts and musicology, we can enjoy our lives in a higher quality.

Furthermore, study of some disciplines will involve in many others. Public Relations, for example, touches upon other disciplines such as marketing, advertising, journalism, sociology and politics, for the reason that someone who is engaged in public relations need to contact with different people from distinct fields.

However, universities should not arrange other courses, which the students do not major in, in an excessive deep degree after they choose their specialties. All they need from the external courses is something practical rather than something may occupy their time for study their own specialties. If not so, they will be educated into dilettantes.

As discussed above, universities should require every student to choose their specialties only after they have some acquaintance with the other specialties they may interested in, and offer courses in a practical level to students who already have a specialties. Only in that way can the students become truly educated.
