Quartz网站截图 What’s replacing the humanities? Mostly, majors with a very clear career path. Of the 20 majors with over 25,000 graduates in 2017, by far the fastest growing was exercise science, followed by nursing, other health and medical degrees, and computer science.
哪些专业取代了人文学科的位置呢?大多是职业前景明朗的专业。2017年毕业的2.5万多名大学生就读的20个专业中,迄今为止人数增长最快的是运动科学,其次是护理和其他健康医疗专业,还有计算机科学。
In his research, Schmidt considered whether the increase in professionally focused degrees, and the fall of humanities, could be a result of the changing demographics of who attends college, rather than the result of the financial crisis. Increasingly, college attendees are more likely to be women, and a larger share of Americans from poorer families attend college. Perhaps it was these changes that explain the shift in preferred majors? It wasn’t. Schmidt found that the trend appears in nearly every group he looked at, including students at elite universities like Harvard and Princeton, where the humanities have historically flourished.
在研究报告中,施密特曾考虑过,以职业为导向的专业增加,以及人文学科的衰落,是否由大学生成分的变化导致,而非金融危机导致?如今女大学生越来越多,还有很大一部分大学生是来自穷困家庭的美国人。也许这些变化可以解释热门专业的变化?答案是,并不能。施密特发现,这种趋势在他所调查的每一个人群中都出现了,包括哈佛和普林斯顿等精英大学的学生,历史上这些大学的人文学科一直很兴盛。
