some people think that universities should provide graduates with the knowledge and skills needed in the workplace. Others think the true function of a university should be to give access to knowledge for its own sake, regardless of whether the course it useful to an employers. What, in your opinion, should be the main function of a university?

University study is a major part of one's
knowledge
hunt.So the question of what the main role of universities
evokes a discussion between a fraction of people who believes in vocational education , which focuses to deliver science based on occupations whereas
others believed that academy should deliver comprehensive education regardless of its purpose
Modern educational institutions design many courses
after evaluating the trade vacancies and moulding the curriculum based on the professional demands of the employers , this
will help the students
as well as
the employers too. For, instance the graduates, who studied the course based on the work environment would have more benefits when they apply for job
opportunities similarly
,employers who provide them with jobs will benefit by less requirement of job
orientations and training , as they already go through work experience as part of their course.Moreover
, job
-oriented studies will help to focus on the key educational aspects rather than vast learning modules on different streams of subjects .To be more precise , educational institutions like universities
. and colleges will get more time to discuss and train about requirements for specific job
openings ,which would be an added advantage for the future workforce.
On the other hand
, colleges and academies are the places of knowledge
delivery , which should deliver academics regardless of their benefits to the job
market . In other words
, if all universities
focus on job
-oriented courses
, broad knowledge
of history and arts will get depleted from the major knowledge
streams ,as aspirants of those courses
would not get equal opportunities as others. To add on , the universities
should function as knowledge
centres,where students
can get facilities for aspiring all branches of knowledge
.
To conclude
, after evaluating both views, I strongly believed that job
-focused education should be the main focus of universities
as it helps students
to cope with work pressure and deliver good outcomes .As knowledge
on all streams is important so should provide facilities for students
to aspire to the arts and cultural-based courses
too for those who are interested .Submitted by arun.b.143 on
