1. Choose a major that interests you

As the saying goes, interest is the best teacher for learning. Students must choose a major based on their domestic advantages and interests. Only by combining your professional expertise and interests and hobbies and choosing a major that is easy for you to master can you learn more easily and have a greater chance of successfully completing your studies.

Many British students do not take their own interests as the starting point, but instead refer too much to their parents’ opinions and choose majors they do not like. They find it difficult to study, and some even become tired of studying, which ultimately affects their graduation.

2. Compare the majors of various schools

The course content of the same major in different universities is often different. Some universities focus on academics and test scores, while others focus on the practical aspects of their courses. It’s important that the major you choose includes courses that interest you!

In addition, you must choose the one you like in terms of the atmosphere, facilities, location and other aspects of the university.

3. Choose a major first and then consider a college

Currently, most Chinese students choose a college first and then a major. This approach is unscientific. In the UK, a school with weak comprehensive strength does not mean that it does not have good majors, and a school with strong comprehensive strength does not mean that all majors are among the best. Compared with the comprehensive ranking, the professional ranking is very important, which means a higher-end course, more experienced teachers, and a better professional environment.

Therefore, choose a major first, and then consider colleges with advantages in related professional education fields, so that you can achieve a more satisfactory result.

4. Don’t blindly pursue the popular ones

Whether it is a popular major or an unpopular major, it is changing with the changes of the times. Although diplomas in popular majors such as IT, finance, and business are highly valuable, the competition for admission is extremely fierce. In addition, due to the serious crowding phenomenon, some professional fields have become saturated with talents.

Therefore, when choosing a major, you should not blindly pursue the popular ones, but should consider whether it is beneficial to employment and maintain a long-term perspective. It is recommended to choose some marginal majors in popular majors to increase the success rate of admission and effectively avoid employment risks.

5. Choose a major based on career goals

When choosing a major, you must prepare for employment in advance. You must choose a major with development potential based on your own career development goals and the trend of the job market.

It is recommended that students can intern in China for a period of time to learn about related work, so that they can be more targeted when choosing a major.

6. Avoid choosing large and broad majors

Many students like to choose majors with very broad coverage such as finance, trade, and computer science. In fact, this type of major focuses on theoretical research and generally does not have strong application and operability, so the employment opportunities are relatively narrow.

It is recommended that you choose some subdivided, cross-cutting, and practical majors, such as actuarial science, insurance, asset valuation, information management, e-commerce, etc.

7. Combined with their own language situation

Many students will encounter the "threshold" of the minimum IELTS score for their major. Majors such as journalism and law generally have high requirements. This is because the focus of these majors is communication, so the language requirements are high, and it is also to ensure the quality of your learning.

Nowadays, most British universities have set up pre-course language classes. If you do not meet the IELTS requirements, you can take language courses. However, students should consider their own language situation and do not apply for majors with excessive IELTS requirements. In order to avoid not being able to apply for language classes.

8. Are there many internship opportunities?

Many students with a long-term perspective will worry about not being able to find a job after graduation. If the major you choose can provide internship opportunities, then you can find a job after graduation. It won't be a problem.

These internship experiences on campus can add points to your resume, making it easier to apply for jobs. If the company is very satisfied with you, it will provide you with paid internship opportunities during the holidays, and may even hire you directly upon graduation.

Finally, qualified students can go and inspect it in person during the holidays.

Does it feel like a spring breeze while standing on campus? Can you foresee a better life in the future? Choose a school that makes you feel comfortable and safe.
