1998-2004年全國(guó)工程碩士招生錄取人數(shù)
工程碩士:Master of Engineering
The diagram above clearly illustrates that dramatic elevation has occurred in the recruitment of Master of Engineering (ME) in the past seven years. According to the statistics given above, we may conclude that the recruitment of ME was on a steady rise from 1998 to 2004. In 1998, the number was at a low level, only about 2,500. Surprisingly, it reached to more than 35,000 in 2004 within no more than seven years.
Some driving factors that contribute to the above-mentioned changes may be summarized as follows. First and foremost, China has become particularly active in manufacturing, which leads to the increasing demand of qualified engineers. In addition, the development of job market on the whole cannot keep pace with the expansion of college graduates, which obliges a large number of students to stay on campus for another three years to get better prepared for their career. Last but not least, working pressure is another reason. Taking all these factors into account, we may predict that with speedy development of our society, the number of recruitment of ME will keep growing in the forthcoming decade.
On the other side of the coin, however, this tendency may bring about a good many problems, such as the waste of talent. It is necessary for us to take effective measures to ensure this situation doesn’t get out of hand, and encourage students to choose majors in which theoretical knowledge and practical skills will be demanded in the job market.

上述圖表清楚揭示了過(guò)去七年在工程碩士招生方面出現(xiàn)了急劇增長(zhǎng)。根據(jù)上面給出的數(shù)據(jù),我們可以得出結(jié)論:從1998到2004年,工程碩士招生穩(wěn)步增長(zhǎng)。在1998年,招生人數(shù)較少,隻有大約2500人。令人驚訝的是,在不到七年中,到2004年招生人數(shù)達(dá)到35000多人。
促成上述變化的一些主要原因可以概括如下。首先,中國(guó)在制造業(yè)方面已經(jīng)變得異常活躍,這導(dǎo)致了高素質(zhì)工程師需求的增加。此外,就業(yè)市場(chǎng)的總體發(fā)展無(wú)法跟上大學(xué)畢業(yè)生的增加,這促使很多學(xué)生繼續(xù)呆在校園裡三年時(shí)間,為就業(yè)進(jìn)行更好的準(zhǔn)備。最后,工作壓力是另外一個(gè)原因??紤]到所有這些因素,我們可以預(yù)計(jì):隨著社會(huì)的迅速發(fā)展,工程碩士的招生人數(shù)在不遠(yuǎn)的將來(lái)將會(huì)繼續(xù)增加。
然而,在問(wèn)題的另一方面,這種趨勢(shì)可能帶來(lái)很多問(wèn)題,例如人才的浪費(fèi)。我們必須採(cǎi)取有效措施確保這一狀況不會(huì)失控,同時(shí)鼓勵(lì)學(xué)生們選擇那些在就業(yè)市場(chǎng)上所需要的既有理論知識(shí)又有實(shí)踐技能的專(zhuān)業(yè)。
