Opinions differ as to whether University students should be given liberty to choose their field of study, according to their interest or forced into certain key subject areas that would inevitably be benefit in near future.
However
, I agree with the view that everyone should study the course of their own choice. There are various reasons why people believe that education should be based on major subjects than the student's interest.
Firstly
, they may assert, University courses like medicines, information technology and engineering are more likely to be productive than certain art degrees from a personal prospective, these courses give better job opportunities, adequate salaries, career progression and,
therefore
 an improved quality of life who opts for them. On the societal level, by forcing individuals to choose university subjects government can ensure any knowledge or skill gap in an economy is covered.
finally
Suggestion
Finally
, a focus on science and technology in higher education could lead to innovations, stimulate economic growth and greater future prosperity.
However
, there are those who believe students should be free to choose their preferred areas of higher education.In my opinion, society will benefit more if students are passionate about what they are learning.
besides
Suggestion
Besides
, nobody knows what is going to be more useful in the coming future and maybe that employer begins to value creative thinking more than any other technical or practical skills were the case, perhaps we would need more students of art, history and philosophy than of science or technology. In conclusion,
although
 it might seem sensible for universities to focus only on the most useful subjects, I personally prefer the current system in which people have the right to study whatever they like.
