Getting a university degree has never seemed more important: college graduates earn more money, live longer, and are happier. But college degrees are expensive (especially in the US), narrowly focused (especially in the UK), and often fail to build the skills employers want (true in most countries).
大学学位似乎从来不曾像现在这样重要:大学毕业生收入更高、寿命更长,也更幸福。但是大学学位很烧钱(尤其在美国),教学范围太狭窄(尤其在英国),经常不能培养出雇主想要的技能(在多数国家都是如此)。
A new university in the UK wants to change that.
英国的一所新大学想要改变这一现状。
The London Interdisciplinary School (LIS), which will launch in 2021 with a target of 100 students, will scrap traditional academic subjects and offer a three-year bachelor of arts and sciences degree designed to tackle real-world issues. The curriculum is built around interdisciplinary problems—knife crime, childhood obesity, palm oil in supply chains, plastic pollution—as well as quantitative and qualitative research skills. Employers like the Met Police, Innocent, and Virgin will provide project ideas and offer five-week work experience for students.
将于2021年成立的伦敦跨学科学院(LIS)将招收100名学生,该学院将摒弃传统的学科,提供三年制文科和理科学士学位,以解决现实世界的问题为目标,围绕持刀犯罪、儿童肥胖、棕榈油供应链、塑料污染等跨学科问题以及定量和定性研究技能来设置课程。伦敦警察厅、天真饮料公司和维珍集团等雇主将为学生提供项目创意以及五周的实习机会。
