On the relationship between career ideals and university study
--Taking computer science as an example
Abstract:
Career ideals are people’s In the profession, the goal established through imagination is based on social requirements and personal conditions, that is, the professional realm that the individual desires to achieve. University study will have a considerable impact on our career ideals and even determine our future career. Career ideals are people's advanced reflection of professional activities and career achievements, and university study lays a solid foundation for career ideals.
Keywords: career ideal, work, university, computer, network engineering, learning
1. First discuss the career ideal
(1) Characteristics of the career ideal
1. Career ideals are diverse
Careers are diverse. What kind of career a person chooses has a great relationship with his ideological and moral character, knowledge structure, ability level, interests and hobbies. Political and ideological consciousness, moral cultivation level and outlook on life determine a person's career ideal direction. Knowledge structure and ability level determine the level of one's career ideal pursuit. Non-intellectual factors such as personal interests and hobbies, temperament and personality, as well as physiological characteristics such as gender characteristics and physical condition also affect a person's career choice. Therefore, career ideals have certain individual differences.
2. Career ideals are developmental
The content of a person's career ideals will change from time to time, place, and event. As age increases, social experience increases, and knowledge levels improve, career ideals will change from hazy to clear, from fantasy to rationality, and from fluctuation to stability. Therefore, career ideals have a certain degree of development. The fact that when I was a child, I wanted to be a policeman, but when I grew up, I became a teacher illustrates this point
3. Professional ideals are of the times
The division of labor in society, Career changes are a decisive factor affecting a person's career ideals. Depending on the level of development of productive forces and the depth and breadth of social practice, people's career pursuit goals will also be different. Because career ideals are always a certain mode of production and the professional status and professional reputation they form in a person's mind. reflection. The birth of computers has led to the creation of computer-related professions, such as computer engineers, software engineers, computer typists, etc. It not only requires employees to have high theoretical knowledge, but also requires strong practical ability. They are knowledge-based talents among high-skilled talents.
(2) The role of professional ideals
1. The guiding role of professional ideals
The ideal is the direction of progress and the goal in the heart. The goal of life development is established through professional ideals and ultimately realized through professional ideals. Tolstoy of Russia once said: "Ideals are guiding lights. Without ideals, there is no firm direction and no life." Students have also deeply felt in the current stage of study and life that once the purpose of study is achieved, If it is not clear, the enthusiasm for learning will be low and the learning effect will not be obvious. Therefore, with clear and realistic career ideals, and through hard work, life development goals will inevitably be achieved
2. The regulating role of career ideals
The role of career ideals in real life It plays the role of a frame of reference, which guides and adjusts our professional activities. When a person deviates from the ideal goal at work, professional ideals will play a corrective role, especially when encountering difficulties and resistance in practice. Without the support of professional ideals, people will become discouraged and lose their fighting spirit. In addition, if a person only positions his pursuit on finding a "good job", even if it is possible to realize it in the future, it cannot be regarded as a lofty career ideal, because once such an ideal is realized, he will not want to make progress. , or even wasting his years. In short, as long as a person establishes correct career ideals, he will forge ahead and move forward courageously, no matter in good times or in bad times.
3. The motivational effect of professional ideals
Professional ideals originate from reality and are higher than reality. It is better than reality.
In order to make a bright future and grand vision a reality, people will work hard with perseverance, tenacious fighting spirit and pioneering and innovative actions. When he was 12 years old, Zhou Enlai vowed to "study for the rise of China", expressing his great ambition to revitalize China since he was a child. Classmates, you are students now, what kind of ideals do you have? I think we should learn from our beloved Premier Zhou, and set a lofty goal in life since childhood. Then, we should persevere and strive to achieve this goal, and contribute to the people and the country. Only such a meaningful life.
2. Discussing university study again
I am a student majoring in network engineering, which is part of computer science. Computer science has always been a popular major in major universities across the country and is developing rapidly. With the development of the Internet, the shortage of computer professionals will become more and more serious. In our country, IC talents, network storage talents, e-commerce talents, information security There is a serious shortage of talents and game technical talents; in terms of the software talent hierarchy, there are few high-level system analysts and project planners with industry backgrounds, and there is also a shortage of software blue-collar workers.
I think that for students majoring in network engineering, academic qualifications are just a stepping stone. There is a saying that academic qualifications are not everything. No academic qualifications are absolutely impossible. This sentence is placed in the network engineering major. It is most suitable for students. Generally, companies will ask for your academic qualifications after the interview. If you have a lower academic qualification and a higher ability, the company will also ask for it! I think we should pay more attention to learning skills!
As for learning programming, I learned that many students understand all the knowledge points after self-study, but they just don’t know how to put it on to write projects, and they don’t know how to start when writing. This is typical. In the university education method, students can only read books but not understand programming ideas! I was in the same situation at first. Later, some classmates suggested to me to write more projects and go online to find some source codes or teaching videos of actual projects. Don’t just read and write, focus on practice. You may think you are very simple, but it is possible to copy them over and over again. If it doesn’t run, it’s possible that the punctuation format is wrong. I think we need to do more hands-on work and debug the program more! For students who want to develop C, it is recommended to find an internship company to learn it. C is absolutely not allowed to participate in training classes, because C cannot be trained in one or two years. Unlike JAVA, JAVA may be completed in half a year. It is impossible to train a successful developer in C!
In terms of class arrangement, it does not mean that it is good to study for seven or eight hours a day. It must be reasonably arranged and the whole day must be Classes are held every day. How can you remember if you don’t practice? Software development is not something else. Just understand it. If you don’t write it, it will definitely not work! You have to absorb what has been said and understand it. What you learn about development is Thinking is not just about writing code. You go to the company to use your ideas to realize what customers want, so it is important to develop based on understanding and learn programming ideas! Three of the four years in college are spent on learning textbook knowledge, so it is easy to be technically weak in practical operations.
The lower-grade courses in the university mainly include public courses and basic courses. The characteristics of these courses are: first, they are more theoretical and systematic than those in middle schools, requiring students to improve their ability to analyze and summarize; second, there are fewer opportunities to ask questions in large classes, and they have to write down some questions to study on their own or ask questions after class. Third, the teaching speed is relatively fast, and the order of the teacher's explanation is not necessarily exactly the same as that of the textbook. There are some choices and additions in the content, and the focus is also different. When listening to lectures, students should understand the teacher's ideas, grasp key points and difficulties, and improve their ability to take notes.
The first thing to study in network engineering major is to pay attention to the learning of computer language. This is equivalent to learning a completely new language, which is very different from the computers we usually come into contact with. Generally speaking, people who are not computer majors will not come into contact with computer languages. Some people think that computer language is wonderful and vivid, and they are very motivated to learn it. On the other hand, some people find it difficult and difficult to understand, and they are incomprehensible to learn it. Some even give up and change majors directly.
Most people who have a strong interest in computer majors will take the initiative to learn more computer knowledge and exercise their own skills. People who are not interested will feel powerless and can only try their best to complete the homework assigned by the teacher. In fact, no matter what, university is a good learning environment with great resources and opportunities. However, opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. If you are not prepared, you will most likely miss the opportunity. In school, we should seize every opportunity to learn and make full use of the various resources provided by the school.
3. Discuss the relationship between career ideals and university study
University study is mainly theoretical knowledge. Many people find it boring, but its importance cannot be ignored. The employment situation is becoming increasingly severe. We should eliminate our blind mentality and clarify the purpose of going to college and our responsibilities. We should start designing our own career plan and formulate long-term goals, phased goals and practical measures.
First of all, we should eliminate the blind mentality. Clarify the purpose of going to college and the tasks you shoulder, start designing a college career plan, and formulate long-term goals, phased goals, and practical measures.
Second, we need to adjust our learning methods. The purpose, content, and methods of learning in universities are different from those in middle schools, and they pay more attention to initiative, creativity, and extensiveness. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust learning methods in time, change from passive to active, and adapt to university study as soon as possible.
Third, we must overcome our inferiority complex. We must understand that there is no reason for people to feel inferior. Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. As the saying goes, "A ruler has its strengths and an inch has its weaknesses." We must firmly believe that self-confidence will make you successful. At the same time, if you make friends with confident people, you will find that you will gradually become more confident.
Fourth, we must cultivate our own independent ability. Learn to arrange your own life, manage yourself well, arrange financial expenses reasonably, and learn to be careful with your budget; develop interpersonal skills and establish harmonious interpersonal relationships.
Fifth, we must cultivate our own personality and quality. By participating in various meaningful activities, we can establish lofty ideals and establish a correct outlook on life, values ??and world view. For example, through participating in social practice activities, advanced figure report meetings, party classes and other ways to cultivate their own sentiments and improve their overall quality. Employment prospects of computer majors There are less than 1 million professionals engaged in computer work in my country. With the adjustment of economic structure and the further implementation of the strategy of rejuvenating the country through science and technology, science, industry, national defense and education require a large number of high-quality computer professionals. p>
For many graduates, it is not so much "employment difficulties" as "employment confusion", not knowing what kind of job they should do. When many students first enter college, they have the mentality of "take it easy first and sophomore year, and it's not too late to work hard in their junior and senior years" and lack scientific planning for their future development. This often becomes a problem when they face employment pressure. A big reason for feeling overwhelmed.
As the first stop for college students’ career planning, university plays a vital role.
First of all, we must establish correct career ideals. Once college students determine their ideal career, they will plan their study and practice based on their career goals, and actively prepare for relevant matters to obtain their ideal career.
Secondly, conduct self-analysis and career analysis correctly. Self-analysis is to conduct a comprehensive analysis of one's own interests, temperament, personality, and abilities through scientific cognitive methods and means, and to understand one's own strengths, strengths, weaknesses, and shortcomings. Career analysis refers to fully considering the regional, industry and position characteristics of the occupation when making career planning, such as the current status and development prospects of the industry in which the occupation is located, and the requirements of the job seekers for their own qualities and abilities.
Third, build a reasonable knowledge structure. According to the specific requirements of professional and social development, existing knowledge should be scientifically reorganized, a reasonable knowledge structure should be constructed, and the overall effectiveness of knowledge should be maximized.
Fourth, cultivate the practical abilities required by the profession. In addition to building a reasonable knowledge structure, you also need to have the basic and professional abilities to work in this industry.
College students can remain invincible only by unifying a reasonable knowledge structure and various abilities that apply to social needs. From the perspective of specific implementation, career planning should start from the freshman year, and different action plans should be adopted at different stages based on one's long-term goals. For example, the first grade is a trial period. During this period, you need to initially understand the profession, especially the profession you hope to engage in in the future or the profession that corresponds to your major. However, due to the heavy learning tasks, it is not appropriate to participate in too many practical activities; the second grade is During the orientation period, you should exercise your practical work ability by participating in various social activities. It is best to seek jobs related to your future career or major in your spare time to conduct social practice to test your knowledge and skills and adapt to your personal needs. Interests and abilities revise and adjust career planning and design; the third grade is the sprint period. While strengthening professional learning, seeking jobs and preparing for postgraduate entrance examinations, the goal is to focus on various information related to achieving one's own goals; the fourth grade is differentiation During this period, most students should have clear goals for their own future. At this time, you can make a summary of the preparations in the first three years: check whether the established career goals are clear, whether the preparations are sufficient, and make necessary adjustments to existing problems. repair.
There is a gap between school and society, and its operating rules are very different from those of society. This kind of environmental isolation often makes college students in the "ivory tower" have a simplistic, one-sided and idealistic view of society. Some companies are indifferent to recent graduates. One of the important reasons is that freshly graduated college students lack work experience and life experience, and their role transition is slow and the adaptation process takes a long time. When they select and hire university graduates, under the same conditions, they often give priority to those graduates who have participated in social practice and have certain organizational and management capabilities. This requires college students to pay attention to cultivating their ability to adapt to and integrate into society before employment. With the help of social practice platform, college students' organizational management capabilities, psychological endurance, interpersonal skills and adaptability can be improved. In addition, it can also help them understand the employment environment, policies and situations, etc., which will help them find a career that matches their knowledge level, personality traits and abilities. Survival of the fittest, survival is for development. Adaptation to society and the environment should be proactive, rather than passive waiting and hesitation. Only when college students have strong social adaptability can they shorten their adaptation period and give full play to their intelligence after entering the society. Therefore, without affecting the learning of professional knowledge, boldly going into society and participating in social activities including part-time jobs are effective ways for college students to improve their employability and adapt to society as soon as possible.
In a certain sense, ability is more important than knowledge. Therefore, recruiting units also hope to obtain such talents. But the interview time is very short, so they judge the interviewer's words, deeds, and actions. An etiquette expert once said: "Education is reflected in details, and details show quality." Because some small things or some casual details often reveal a person's inner world and reveal a person's essence, from which the recruiter can quickly Judgment occurs and the result may affect a person's future. And these are not something that college students can master in a short period of time through sudden attacks. They require long-term training. If you have good overall qualities, you will have more opportunities than others.
In order to seize more opportunities during the job search process, college students must have high overall quality. On the basis of broad knowledge, professional and technical proficiency, and strong business capabilities, you must also improve your personal cultivation and develop good habits in daily life and study to avoid affecting your future due to some detailed issues. If you want to improve your personal cultivation, you must master some necessary etiquette knowledge.
To be honest, among many majors, the average starting income of computer majors should be very high, and the employment opportunities are relatively wide. For a bachelor's degree graduate, you can find suitable jobs in various industries. But we should also It should be noted that computer science is a rapidly developing and ever-changing subject. New theories, knowledge, and products are launched all the time. If you want to do well in this industry, no matter what level you work at, you must constantly enrich yourself. Every school has a computer department, the job market is huge, and the competition for jobs is fierce.
By laying a solid foundation in college studies, we will be closer to our career ideals and more likely to realize our dreams. Career ideals. Instead of letting yourself become a clinging to the old people and become a college student who "graduates equal to unemployment". The British writer Forster has a novel titled "A Room with a View." I thought that this "room with a view" must be a room with a great location, and the windows could be opened to catch a glimpse of a different landscape. Maybe, in your life journey, one window has been closed, but please open another window. There are many new scenery over there waiting for you to discover and appreciate!
