2. Introduction to the categories of American institutions studying abroad
I. College of Arts and Sciences
A permanent compulsory college, naturally a comprehensive college of arts and sciences, will cover basic related disciplines. It is a familiar institution that domestic students can choose after going abroad, and it is theoretical, so it will not be difficult for everyone to learn.
Familiar majors include mathematics, physics, history and politics. This college is generally university-sized, with the largest number of majors and the largest number of students. If you want to be first-class, you must study harder.
Second, the technical college.
Among the comprehensive and science and engineering colleges in the United States, this is a permanent college and a popular choice for everyone. Ordinary colleges and universities can receive dual funding and sponsorship from the government and social organizations, and can enjoy very good hardware resources.
The major of handlebars is engineering, and there will be a large number of branches. Apart from permanent projects, many projects are unique. For example, only some schools offer petroleum engineering, so you must confirm it in advance before applying.
Third, business schools.
Due to the great social demand and high enthusiasm for studying abroad, many business schools in colleges and universities do not directly divide majors at the entrance stage, but accept general courses for one year before choosing specific majors. Everyone needs to confirm their choice.
In addition, there are many independent business schools in the United States, which provide professional studies with a higher degree of specialization, and the degree of convergence is still good. The internship arrangement provided is also more in line with the needs of students, which is a more suitable choice for students, but the requirements are generally higher.
Fourth, characteristic colleges and universities.
Except for arts, science, engineering and business, other schools can actually be regarded as characteristic colleges, because their scale is generally not very large, and they do not cover all colleges and universities in the country, and some colleges even have only a few schools.
If everyone's choice is relatively unpopular, then it will take more time to compare and confirm that they have a more suitable choice, among which Shenshen College, Foreign Affairs College and Film Academy are relatively unpopular.
3. study hot majors in the United States
1, major in financial accounting
In the United States, financial accounting is a major that is easy to find a job, but the disadvantage is that the salary is not high, about 40 thousand to 50 thousand, and the work of financial audit is slightly higher. The largest number of people studying business in the United States are financial accounting and financial industry. With regard to these job opportunities, you can flexibly use the internet of your brothers and sisters and their classmates. In America, interpersonal relationships are as helpful as finding a job.
2. MBA and Business School
After graduating from university, most students in China go to financial investment companies and consulting management companies, while many American students choose enterprises as their management methods because of their good English language skills. Studying in business school is not easy to waste training fees and time.
3, electronic computers and telecommunications networks and other related industry courses
Most college graduates majoring in computer science in the United States have very good employment prospects, such as mobile phone software, database query, Internet, hardware configuration, integrated ic, wireless communication and so on. Even the manufacturing industry with a very basic theory has a good development prospect. It industry is a well-established manufacturing industry, which can digest and absorb many high-quality talents. Most general doctoral graduates go to large enterprises to do scientific research, with an annual salary of $6.5438+10,000. There are many developers who graduated with master's degree, and their salary is 50,000 to 70,000 dollars. It industry is still the mainstream product of American science and technology. Among the undergraduate and master students of MIT, 50% are ece majors, electronic devices and computer engineering.
4. Engineering major
Most engineering graduates can find suitable jobs in America. Among them, biomedical engineering projects, telecommunication network/computer engineering, industrial manufacturing engineering projects, mechanical automation, chemical plants and crude oil are better for students to find jobs, while civil engineering, raw materials, nuclear power generation and aerospace are more difficult for students to find jobs. There are few basic projects in the United States, but nuclear power generation, aerospace and other majors are restricted by nationality. Most students in this major rely on their own engineering projects and computer background maps to find it-related jobs. American engineering students sometimes do not necessarily do engineering projects, but only choose to invest in industrial investment, venture capital, innovation and invention projects, and their income will be much higher, reaching more than150 thousand dollars.
5. Investment science
Compared with other majors in literature, history and science and engineering, the return on assets of the financial industry is much higher than other majors. No matter for international students or American students who go to the United States for undergraduate studies, the financial industry is a hot major, so the probability of winning the prize is not great. The financial industry is generally a one-year course, and the course content is very practical.
Financial engineering pays attention to mathematics courses and computer background maps, and the key to employment direction is futures trading and manufacturing with high stock index but few employment problems. The relative difficulty coefficient of applying for a master of finance is small, but it is logical. As far as international students are concerned, the employment prospects are not very ideal. In addition, many business schools only offer doctoral degrees or are classified as MBA. For those who just want to apply for a master's degree, there are not many choices. Business schools offering financial engineering include the University of California at Berkeley. Mathematical finance includes Carnegie Mellon University, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Rutgers University, etc. The financial analysis includes Lehigh University, etc. There are many masters in finance, such as Washington University, UIUC, Boston College, Rochester University and Bentley University.
6. Holiday Travel Hotel Services
Because the hotel service major is not easy to find a job and manage in the United States, there are relatively few people applying for this position in China. Not all majors are built in business schools. For example, NYU is built under the Continuing and Professional College, and NYU's marketing major is also under this school. 80% of the students' employment level is to work in a hotel, to work at the income management level, or to start from a lower level immediately.
There are Cornell University (excellent hotel management training course in America), Purdue University, NYU, University of Delaware, Michigan State University, etc. The University of Nevada-Las Vegas is one of the unique institutions. It is not a very excellent comprehensive university, but because of its unique geographical location, the overall strength of hotel service specialty is very good, and the students' Internet is also relatively prosperous.
7. Information management system
As a booming comprehensive course, management information system integrates management, electronic information science, professional norms and electronic information science. The key science studies the process of the company's information management theme activities, which facilitates the display of reasonable information management and various management decision-making information contents, and assists the company in modern management. MIS is the company's information management system, which has the key functions of data processing method, scheme, operation, forecast analysis and auxiliary management decision. According to the survey, at present, 80-90% of schedule management in the United States is carried out by computers, and more than 90% of information resources management in accounting work is carried out by computers; The application of electronic computers in human resource management industry is also close to 100%. Therefore, the graduates of MIS University have a very good job market prospect in the American student employment and sales market.
