some people think that all university students should study whatever course they like, others believe that they should only be allowed to study subjects that will be useful in the future such as those related to science and technology. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

There are arguments about freedom to choose the course of

in a tertiary institution. While some individuals think it should be streamlined to

the sciences
and its application, I believe that college students should be allowed to decide and
study
the courses they prefer because it stimulates commitment. On one hand, some people are of the opinion that when choosing a course of
study
students should choose subjects relating to technology because it is applied in most things in the world presently.

after completion to delve into what they really prefer. To conclude, despite the debate about choosing science related courses due to advancement in technology in recent times, I am of the opinion that desire for a particular course is the driving force for performance and commitment in the studied discipline,
hence
university students should be allowed to choose their preferred courses.
