2. What was interesting
When I was freshman, I didn't study of sociology. So I had no idea about sociology. I didn't know about advantage of sociology degree, future education plans, and so on. But after read this text, I knew that there is so many strong point in sociology. Also, I knew there is a lot of career opportunity. This is very important for me. Now I can get down to my life blueprint. Thank for this text.
3. Discussion Point
In this text, people who have sociology degree has valuable skills contributing in workplaces. However, most students are dissatisfied with the information provided on career opportunities. And I also heard about "Sociology is good at starve." Why these students find it difficult to get a job despite the sociology degree advantages?
I think social trend makes difficult for students to find jobs. Our social wants something more practical. But our society thinks sociology as a theoretical major. So companies seem to prefer sociology students. But sociology is not just a theoretical major. Sociology is a practical major for understanding society. Therefore, this social trend must change.
ReplyDeleteI think that's because our society has not enough jobs related to sociology. In Korea, companies prefer the student who majored in engineering or similar discipline. Therefore sociology students are hard to find their job in which they can perform their sociological knowledge. And also in nowadays, you can not easily find your job if you only know one thing. Companies want the employee who has experienced convergence in the discipline. So I think if we study sociology with another discipline, we maybe could find the job which related to sociology easily, not starving.
