Thesis Statement
Regarding the
current
state of our societal and
econimical
system,
i
believe the choice between
university
and other forms of
post
-
secondary
education
depends on the type of
carreer
the student is looking for.
Let's
start with the basics. University ensures a
detailled
course
, where the student leaves with
deep
insight of the subject, such
as:
knowing methods to solve problems, what are the risks, consequences and
what's
there to be unsolved. Basically,
courses
taken here rely on
methological
solving and
theoritical
analasys
.
It's
perfect for someone seeking maths, physics,
chemestry
for advanced knowledge or wanting to be a doctor in the future.
In addition,
university
garantees
you a
path
to higher studies by selecting master's degree or
PHD
after their
current
graduate
course
ends. As general public says: the better the
education
, the bigger the
sallary
after graduation.
Is it true?
Well,
current
polls
sugest
this theory...
However, you
don't
need to follow the
current
trend to become rich. Many influencers are speaking out how college
didn't
tailored
their lifestyle. Jobs related to speaking to mass media, owning companies, management, being an
entrepeneur
are on trend! Turning your
hobbie
into your job is at most importance.
Plus, more conventional careers like
carpentery
and
tayloring
are becoming less
favorable
to
new-becomming
adults. Soon we will see a need for
this
types of
carreers
, because
they are essential to our well-being - Not everyone can build a bookshelf!
Post
-
secondary
education
may turn a simple job to
an
high income
one, by being decisive and mastering talent.
Even though
university
gives a proper certificate, other forms of
post
-
secondary
education
are the option for someone who is more
pratical
, who likes to touch and
fix
problems by hand and intuition. In this way,
post
-
secondary
courses
will lead you to an affordable and
convinient
path
.
Don't
forget
it
may be also
faster in teaching, covering the basics of your needs.
In summary, if you value time and money, you may choose a simple
post
-
secondary
path
, where you can start working right away when you finish learning. Otherwise, a wise seeking
path
is
certaintly
in
university
!
