Universities should require students to take courses only within those fields they are interested in studying.
Write a response in which you discuss your views on the policy and explain your reasoning for the position you take. In developing and supporting your position, you should consider the possible consequences of implementing the policy and explain how these consequences shape your position.
The author of the statement above argued that university students should be required to attend only the courses which best match their field of interest. Personally, I tend to mostly disagree with his sentence as even if nowadays high specialization is strictly required in business scene, it is also fundamental to keep a wide knowledge. In this essay I will introduce my personal opinion, providing support for my thesis on both working and personal side.
Firstly, I will take into account the effects of the policy implementation on working side.
Even though it is often argued that the hire of more specialized students often increases the technical level of a company, positive results on the net productivity are less certain. In the latest times, it is becoming even more common to make people work in multidisciplinary teams. For this reason, I am strongly convinced that having a wider knowledge, which involves also other fields aside from the one of main interest, could help employees to better collaborate and understand each other. Yet the implementation of the strategy suggested would bring more skilled student, it may be too much dangerous for the working environment.
On the other side of the argument, having a multi-fields background studies could support people also in their personal lives. As a matter of fact, having different interest makes individuals more openminded and motivated to understand the world more as a whole than as something divided into tiny pieces. A good example of that were 15th century’s scientists, as Galileo Galilei. He is worldwide known for his physical studies, but only the minority know that he was a brilliant writer too. Of course his books were all about his scientific researches but his writing style suggests that he also had a deep background in literature. Because of this, the policy adoption may also represent a risk as it would make students less passionate about life and less eager to know.
In conclusion, the approach described in the sentence above would be dangerous for scholars in both their working and personal life, as they won’t be able to interact with people coming from different studies and they will lose an overall view of what the world is like.
