If you want to study in the U.S., which majors have better job prospects in the U.S.?

Physics: Physics is an easy major to go abroad, and it is also a relatively easy major to get scholarships, but the career path for pure physics students is worrying. If you have a good foundation in mathematics and physics, take some financial courses when the economic situation is good, and after graduation, you can go to a financial institution to do quantitative analysis, and the annual salary can reach 150,000 to 300,000 US dollars.

If you want to delve into academics, physics professors generally need 1 or 2 rounds of postdoctoral experience, as well as academic contacts and excellent research articles. Students in some fields of physics can also go to the basic research departments of companies such as GE, with an annual salary of more than 70,000 yuan.

Chemistry: Chemistry is also an easy major to go abroad. In the U.S., the job outlook is quite good.

Organic chemistry graduates are prone to enter large pharmaceutical companies, with a starting salary of about $50,000 to $70,000 for a master's degree. The employment of inorganic chemistry and physical chemistry graduates is slightly narrower, but chemistry is good as a whole, because the chemical industry is relatively large, and there are many large companies that need chemical talents, such as DuPont, Dow Chemical, GE, BP, Shell, ExxonMobil, etc.

Mathematics: Mathematics graduates are relatively easy to go abroad, and the employment prospects are very good, and they can go to finance, insurance, banking, real estate, credit cards, pharmaceuticals and other industries in the future, with an annual salary of more than 80,000 to 150,000 US dollars. Many excellent PhDs in mathematics can be directly assistant professors without being a postdoc, and everything in the United States is determined by supply and demand.

Computer and telecommunications science: There are many computer-related science fields, most of which have a good employment situation, such as software, databases, networks, hardware, chips, wireless communications, etc., and generally have more developers after graduating with a master's degree, with an annual salary of 50,000 to 80,000 US dollars. The IT industry is still the mainstream of American polytechnics, and 50% of MIT undergraduate and graduate students are ECE, electrical and computer engineering.

Engineering: Most engineering graduates can find suitable jobs in the United States. Among them, biomedical engineering, telecommunications, computer engineering, industrial and manufacturing engineering, mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, and petroleum are relatively easy to employ, while civil engineering, materials, nuclear energy, and aerospace are relatively difficult to employ.

The top engineering students in the United States sometimes do not necessarily do engineering, but choose to do industrial investment, venture capital, invention investment, etc., and the income will be much higher, up to more than $150,000.

Accounting: It's easy to find a job, but the salary in the company is not high, about 40,000 to 50,000 yuan, and the audit job is slightly higher.

Economics: The employment prospects are good, Chinese society respects economists more, and the salary of returning to China as a professor is much higher, or even several times higher, than that of other majors.

When applying for graduate school in the United States, the preparation of application materials is definitely the most important and the most tedious part, so what should students prepare when preparing application materials?

Application Essay. Applying to graduate school in the United States usually requires a personal statement (the personal statement is more important, which reflects the overall situation and academic thoughts of the person, so that the professor can have a three-dimensional understanding of you when he sees the letter); Resume; Three letters of recommendation (the recommender can choose by himself: professors, counselors, directors, friends can all be referees, if there are people with a face in the academic community with a relevant background to write a letter of recommendation, of course, it is better, it can be gilded, some schools have special requirements, depending on the school chosen.

For students applying to business schools in American universities, they also need to prepare essays, and for students applying to liberal arts majors in American universities, many schools will require students to provide writing samples. Students can find these materials on the official website of the U.S. university to which they are applying.

Academic background. In the process of applying for graduate studies in American universities, applicants must prove their academic ability and education level, and the specific materials include, college diploma in Chinese and English, university degree certificate in Chinese and English, university transcripts in Chinese and English (some schools have at least 6 semesters, and some schools have at least 7 semesters, with GPA or above, and the above are more competitive), their own award certificates (more heavyweight, translated into Chinese and English to provide to the school),** (if it has been published**, it can be provided, Preferably in Chinese and English). If you are applying for architecture or art, you need to provide a portfolio.

Language scores. TOEFL and GRE (mailed from ETS centers in the United States, scores are according to the requirements of each school, generally speaking, TOEFL scores of 93 or more, GRE scores of 1300 or more, and GMAT scores of 650 or more are more conducive to applying to better schools.) )

Application** and application fee.

The vast majority of school applications are online,** submitting your personal information, intention to apply, and student status. Many schools need to write some essays when applying online, and students must pay attention to the writing of these essays. **There is a fee at the time of application, and students must have a credit card available for payment in advance.

Proof of deposit. A deposit certificate of 300,000 yuan as a guarantee for the first year's tuition and living expenses.

If you are Chinese, computer and actuarial science are better employment in traditional majors, because computer programming is still very lacking, and actuarial science because of its difficulty there, there are not many graduates every year, so there is no competitive pressure. There are also some non-traditional professions, such as lawyers, you can be an immigration lawyer to help people on the Chinese side immigrate to the past, and the prospects should be good. If you become a dentist, even if you don't work for half a year, you can do it, because the salary of a dentist is 3-5 times that of an ordinary engineer.

And Americans pay a lot of attention to the dental aspect, so there is a great demand for this, and you won't be unable to find a job. But both lawyers and doctors have to study for a long time, and you have to be prepared to study for 10 years. Some other liberal arts majors are strongly discouraged because Americans can't find a job studying liberal arts right now.

Although many people in the finance profession say that they can work on Wall Street or in financial institutions, financial companies are now laying off employees due to the economic downturn. It's super hard to get into JPMorgan Chase and the like. Biochemistry majors are probably better to stay in the laboratory, and the salary in college will not be very high.

Math is okay, because it's more difficult, many Americans don't dare to read this, you can try, this employment is okay, you can participate in computer science and banking. Architecture is also not recommended because there are very few buildings under construction in the United States right now, and architects in the United States are looking for job opportunities across the globe. There are too many people studying economics now, and there are many schools that are strong in economics, but the specific employment prospects are only average, and it is generally believed that graduation is to do research, and if you want to enter graduate school, you have to work in the school for many years and become a professor before you have a chance.

If you are studying abroad, telecommunications.

Science and engineering are relatively easy to employ, especially computers, and the best jobs for foreigners are those that Americans can't do or are not good at on their own.
