In China, the best university is Tsinghua Peking University, so let's take a look at their ranking among universities in the world. A ranking of "Top 100 Universities in the World in 2004" shows that (according to the number of alumni who won the Nobel Prize and Fields Prize, the number of employees who won the Nobel Prize and Fields Prize, the number of researchers with high citation rate, the number of papers on science and science, the average academic performance of teachers, etc.), but our neighbor Japan, five universities were selected, and the University of Tokyo ranked the highest./ In 2005, in a survey of "Ranks and Scores of Top 50 Universities in the World in 2005" from China Education and Research Computer Network, China University was still unknown on the list, while two Japanese universities were selected. According to various statements, Tsinghua Peking University can only be regarded as a second-rate or even third-rate university in the world. Is it true that our leading universities have no place in the world?
Min Weifang, secretary of the Party Committee of Peking University, once said: "I have always believed that Peking University has the potential quality of a world-class university." But he added, "Money and talents are our difficulties ...". It can be seen that our first-class universities are also lamenting the lack of talents. But don't we have so many high-scoring candidates every year? Aren't they talents? Then let's take a look at what kind of "talents" our education system has cultivated. We have to take math, Chinese and foreign languages in the college entrance examination, as well as literature, literature, science and science. Only when you get high marks in every subject can you go to Tsinghua Peking University. In other words, we cultivate "all-rounders". It evaluates your professional achievements according to the rankings of world universities, that is, the number of "professionals". So does our society need so many "generalists"? Of course not. With the development of society, the division of labor is becoming more and more detailed, which requires our talents to "master the profession, not know everything." So as to gain a foothold. To give a very simple example, we will not let one person build a car, but let a group of people build a car together.
Then our education should adapt to the requirements of society and develop in the direction of cultivating students' specialties, otherwise it will stifle our students and our future. If we don't pay attention to cultivating students' talents in some aspects, but let them pursue an all-round "harvest" excessively and spend a lot of energy to make up for his shortcomings, then his talents may have been killed by the time he goes to college. You should know that a student's energy is limited. What he can give is only 100%, not 120% as we often say. For example, we regard every subject as a soldier. When the charge is in front, if every soldier stops to wait for the backward and injured soldiers, then only death is waiting for them; Only those soldiers who can rush up can win the final victory. If there are two students like Chen Jingrun in our school, they are not very good in other aspects and have poor self-care ability, but they are outstanding in mathematics and have strong opinions. The other is a high-scoring student, with average scores in all subjects, but no outstanding performance. If the mathematics department of Peking University is allowed to choose freely, the first student will definitely be selected, because the mathematics department of Peking University does not expect to be outstanding in English or Chinese. I think we are short of students who can win the international Olympic Games like Qin in previous years. This is the reason why China never won the Nobel Prize, because our education has never trained such people.
We want to rejuvenate the country through science and education, and education is the highlight. We should make changes to meet the needs of society and train more "professionals" so that more students can be independent, rather than fighting alone. This requires us, from the government to educators to every teacher, to change our ideas, to discover more students' talents and specialties, to cultivate their talents and make them achieve something, and our duty as teachers is to make them "people". What is a "person" is to be reasonable, realize oneself and benefit the society.
Analysis on the Demand for Talents in Hong Kong and the Importance of Introducing Mainland Professionals
(200 1-06-27 15:34: 19)
On June 1 day, Hong Kong's much-watched "Admission of Mainland Professionals Scheme" officially accepted applications. Donald Tsang, the former Financial Secretary of Hong Kong, implemented the Admission of Professionals Scheme, which allowed mainland professionals in information technology and financial industry to be admitted without any upper limit. The Hong Kong market responded enthusiastically to the scheme. As at 3 1 May, the Hong Kong Immigration Department has issued more than 2,400 application forms to Hong Kong companies interested in importing IT and financial services professionals from the Mainland. This figure does not include the number of companies downloading application forms from the Internet.
Hong Kong's "Admission of Mainland Professionals Scheme" is aimed at information technology and financial services, and the vacancy of another IT talent is the most obvious. Most IT employees in Hong Kong are long-term employees, but 25% of IT employees still leave their jobs every year. The turnover rate is higher than that in the United States. According to the statistical report of the Hong Kong Internet Professionals Association, there will be a serious shortage of scientific and technological talents in Hong Kong in the coming year. Only 10% companies have no employees, and the remaining 90% companies have staff vacancies ranging from 1 to 50. As can be seen from the following questionnaire survey results, among many professionals, the position of technical consultant is the most desirable, followed by programmer, science and technology project manager and network engineer.
Percentage of vacancies in information technology industry
Information technology consultant 17%
Programmer or Engineer 16%
System or network designer 16%
Project Manager 15%
System Analyst 12%
Other professionals 9%
Multimedia professionals 7%
Network analyst 6%
Not short of 2%
According to the statistics of relevant institutions, the real shortage of IT talents in Hong Kong exceeds13,000 every year. Half of them are operators with general university education, and the highest paid jobs are information technology research and product development, with a monthly salary of at least 40,000 to 60,000 Hong Kong dollars. There is a shortage of at least 1000 such talents every year.
In the manpower forecast report for the next five years published in 1 1 last year, the Hong Kong authorities estimated that the demand for IT talents would double in the next five years. At present, Hong Kong needs about 50,000 IT talents, but by 2005, the demand will be 98,200. Accordingly, even considering the factors of price or inflation, the salary of information technology talents will increase year by year with the increase of demand.
According to the 2000 IT manpower survey report published by the Hong Kong Vocational Training Council, the results show that employers have a great demand for IT talents. They predict that the number of information technology jobs will increase from 63 170 in March last year to 67 185 in the same period this year, an increase of 3%. From 1998 to 2000, the number of people in the information technology industry increased by 36%. According to the report, the overall manpower of this industry increased from more than 44,800 in 1 month in 1998 to more than 6 1300 in March last year, an increase of 36%. If classified by skill level, the number of "information technology research and product development" increased the most, from more than 300 to more than 1 100, which more than tripled. From the perspective of industry classification, "retail and wholesale, import and export, catering and hotel" has the greatest demand for IT talents, with an increase of nearly 90%, from more than 1 1000 to more than 2 1000. Hong Kong has experienced the baptism of the Asian financial turmoil and is in the stage of recovery and growth. In 2000, Hong Kong's economic growth rate was as high as 10.5%, the highest growth rate in Hong Kong 13 years, and the largest growth rate in Asia and even the world. The SAR Government predicts that Hong Kong's economy will grow by 4% this year and will continue to grow in the next few years. In addition, the Hong Kong SAR Government has actively promoted the proportion of innovative technology and high value-added industries in the economic system-the Cyberport development plan with a total investment of HK$ 654.38+0.4 billion has been launched, and the distinctive Growth Enterprise Market has also been launched, which has opened up new financing channels for good emerging high-tech enterprises. Therefore, it is necessary to introduce talents from the mainland, financial and information technology talents from the mainland, and make contributions to the successful economic transformation of Hong Kong.
At present, Hong Kong is in an important stage of economic transformation and intensified competition in the world economy. It is believed that the key to future competition lies in talent competition. Countries all over the world are scrambling to offer generous treatment to attract talents. If Hong Kong wants to successfully realize the third economic transformation, it naturally needs a large number of information technology talents, and a large number of scientific and technological talents in the Mainland provide Hong Kong with a unique talent pool. Meanwhile, Hong Kong is a world commercial center, and this financial market should be deepened and broadened in the future. To give full play to this advantage, we naturally need to recruit talents and attract experienced financial professionals from the Mainland to work in Hong Kong.
On July 7-8, in the international conference hall of Guangzhou Garden Hotel, Guangzhou Jintian Consulting Co., Ltd., Guangdong International Technical Cooperation Group and Go2xpert, a famous human resource network in Hong Kong, jointly held a meeting between Hong Kong enterprises and mainland talents. Many Hong Kong enterprises come to Guangzhou to look for mainland professionals, many of whom are large international companies, such as Microsoft, PCCW and CLP. I believe that the directional export of mainland talents will certainly make greater contributions to the sustained and stable development of Hong Kong's economy, and mainland talents can also take this opportunity to better realize their own values and make new improvements and leaps in their careers.
Netizen's point of view:
Experts learn well and know more than generalists. The so-called generalist knows everything but nothing. In that case, it is difficult to become an expert!
This kind of debate is boring. Can anyone claim to be a generalist? A little knowledge is time-consuming and laborious.
I think it's better to be professional first Make achievements and gain fame, and society will cultivate him into a versatile person.
