時(shí)差N小時(shí):上大學(xué)值得嗎?
鑒于目前的經(jīng)濟(jì)形勢(shì)，上大學(xué)還值得嗎?這是否意味著學(xué)位不再像以前那么值錢?高等教育曾經(jīng)是免費(fèi)的，但這樣的福利已經(jīng)一去不復(fù)返了。據(jù)估計(jì)，待本科生畢業(yè)時(shí)，他已經(jīng)背上了超過2萬英鎊的債務(wù)。
Let's hear from Keith Dougdale, Director of Global Recruitment for KPMG. We've got arecession, times are tough and it's difficult for graduates. But long-term, the prospects areactually great and they're going to get better, because of the demographic time bomb, whichmeans we need more and more people with more and more skills to enter the work force asgraduates.
讓我們來聽聽畢馬威全球招聘負(fù)責(zé)人 Keith Dugdale 的意見。我們遇上了經(jīng)濟(jì)衰退，時(shí)局艱難，對(duì)畢業(yè)生們來說很嚴(yán)峻。但從長(zhǎng)遠(yuǎn)來看，前景還是很廣闊的，他們的情況會(huì)越來越好，因?yàn)槿丝诙〞r(shí)炸彈，這意味著社會(huì)將需要越來越多具有更多專業(yè)技巧的畢業(yè)生進(jìn)入勞力市場(chǎng)。
They're looking for graduates who are employable, just having a degree doesn't make someoneemployable. They're looking for people who have supportive evidence of how they can applytheir knowledge into the workplace. So getting descent work experience at university, andactually having an understanding of what that work experience will give them.
勞動(dòng)市場(chǎng)要尋找合適的雇傭者，但僅僅擁有學(xué)位并不足以證明適合就業(yè)。用人單位尋找的是能證明自己可以將所學(xué)知識(shí)應(yīng)用到工作場(chǎng)合的人才。因此在校期間要有像樣的工作經(jīng)驗(yàn)，并且學(xué)會(huì)總結(jié)你的工作能給企業(yè)帶來什么。
We have another expert advice from Wendy Piatt. She's the Director General at the RussellGroup of Universities. Choosing whether to go to university or not is not an easy decision. Butif you do decide to go, then there are other factors to consider too.
我們另有來自溫蒂·皮爾特的專業(yè)建議。她是羅素大學(xué)集團(tuán)總干事。決定是否去上大學(xué)并非易事。但如果決定去上，那么還要考慮其他的因素。
So I would say please think very carefully about this decision, and think very carefully aboutthe course that you're going to take, and the institution that you'll attend, because thebenefits do vary, according to course and institution and it's important to say that as well.
因此我建議學(xué)生仔細(xì)考慮決定要上大學(xué)之后的事情，例如所選的專業(yè)，申請(qǐng)的學(xué)校，因?yàn)楦鱾€(gè)大學(xué)，專業(yè)均有其自身優(yōu)勢(shì)，給學(xué)生此類建議也很重要。
