University students always focus on one specialist subject, but some people think universities should encourage their students to study a range of subjects in addition to their own subject. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

It is some times argued that colleges should let graduates centre their mind a particular course, rather than, allowing them to study various other
subjects
also
. I partly agree with
this
statement. I shall prove my point in the upcoming essay.
Firstly
, the university is a higher level of education. Here pupil takes admissions to make their career in their field of interest. They want to learn more about that subject and it's imperative that they should be giving their entire time to learn those
subjects
.
Secondly
, if their mind is divided among other courses, they will be busy doing assignments of those
subjects
.
This
is taking their time away from doing extra work in their own interest field.
Thirdly
, manifold times institutions are teaching students
subjects
which are not even relevant to their studies, just to take fees for those and make money.
On the contrary
, there are some courses that require to study some other
subjects
with them,
for instance
, in some engineering courses they teach math to build the grasp of the advanced digital concept.
Also
, having a distinct thing to study might give them a break for some time. Another reason is that sometimes student finds other
subjects
interesting and decide to pursue their career in that field and make even more money.
This
increases their knowledge and
thus
it broadens the employment opportunity. To conclude, both have their pros and cons, it depends on the course you take and personal choice as well.

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
