　　Landing a Job Related to One’s Major or Not
　　 That every college graduate lands a job perfectly geared to his major depends on a series of prerequisite conditions—that there are sufficient job opportunities, every graduate loves his major, the pay is satisfactory, and the location of the workplace is ideal, etc.
　　All those conditions render a perfect match between one’s specialty and one’s job a mere wish. In reality, such correspondence is possible only for a few fortunate students. For most students, some of whom cannot even find a job, they should be prepared for jobs only partially or even tangentially related to their major.
　　As a matter of fact, college education does not seek to produce students who only engage in careers based on their major. More and more universities now emphasize foundational and interdisciplinary education to develop broad-caliber students capable of coping with perse challenges in a rapidly changing world. An important function of university education is just to expand students’ intellectual capacity and enhance their emotional maturity. Students must realize that studying a particular major does not automatically guarantee a ready career in that major.
　　Of course, students embarking on graduate studies should pursue careers related to their major. A student prepared to spend two or three years on a Master’s program and another three or five years on a Ph.D. program must have an intense and genuine interest in a particular subject. The failure to work in a related field would be a huge waste of the time and energy, and of the in-depth knowledge acquired.
　　In seeking a job, a student should opt for the job that accords with his interest and allows him to best exploit his talents. One’s career success depends not necessarily on one’s specialized knowledge, but on how one updates the existing knowledge and fits into a new environment.

　　【參考譯文】

　　工作是否應與專業相匹配
　　每個大學畢業生要找到與其專業完全契合的工作，這取決于一系列先決條件：工作機會足夠的多，每個畢業生熱愛其專業，薪酬令人滿意，工作單位的地理位置也甚為理想……
　　所有這些條件，使工作與專業之間的完美匹配成為一種奢望。在現實中，這種對應只可能出現在為數不多的幸運兒身上。對于大多數甚至連工作都難于找到的學生來說，他們必須準備著去接受那些與其專業只是部分相關、甚至幾乎毫不相關的工作。
　　事實上，大學教育所試圖培養的學生，并非僅限于去從事那些基于其專業的工作。現在，越來越多的大學注重基礎性教育或交叉學科教育，就是為了培養寬口徑的學生，能夠應對一個快速變化的社會中不盡相同的挑戰。大學教育的一個重要功能是，拓展學生的智力，提高其情感成熟度。學生們應該意識到，從事某個專業的學習，并不自然而然地保證該專業領域中有一個現成的職業在等待著你。
　　當然，進行研究生學習的學生，應盡量去從事與其專業相關的職業。一個愿意花上二至三年去攻讀碩士學位，再花上三至五年去攻讀博士學位的學生，必定對某一特定科目有著強烈而誠摯的興趣。不去從事相關領域中的工作，這是對其青春年華、精力、以及業已獲得的深厚學識的一陣巨大浪費。
　　在尋找工作的過程中，學生應選擇那種既合乎其興趣、又能最充分地使其發揮才華的工作。一個人職業生涯的成功，并非必定取決于其專業知識，而是取決于他如何去更新現有知識，并適應一個全新的環境。
