Essay topics:

Universities should require every student to take a variety of courses outside the student's field of study.
Write a response in which you discuss the extent to which you agree or disagree with the recommendation and explain your reasoning for the position you take. In developing and supporting your position, describe specific circumstances in which adopting the recommendation would or would not be advantageous and explain how these examples shape your position.

The University holds a significant place in higher education and is responsible for providing quality education to students. However, the debate on whether universities should mandate students to take courses outside their field of study is ongoing. While I partially disagree with this notion, I believe that students should mainly focus on their field of study during their time at the university.

University life is the most critical period for students. After graduation, students enter the job market, where they must exhibit their proficiency. Therefore, it is crucial for students to master their field of study to become accomplished professionals.

While spare time can be used to explore diverse courses related to a student's field of study, taking courses outside the field will limit a student's time and focus. For instance, for a computer science student, taking a variety of courses apart from the central subject distracts from his or her main objective leading to inadequate knowledge of programming. This incompetence could negatively impact their job prospects.

Further, every field of study is extensive, providing room for growth and expertise. Studying a wide range of courses outside one's major could hinder a student from mastering critical concepts. This limits the creation of new knowledge, which is necessary for any subject to remain current and meet the changing world trends. Limiting courses to one's main area of study helps to develop problem-solving skills, critical thinking, and expertise.

However, fundamental courses such as math skills, language skills, sociology, and accounting classes are essential and should be included in the curriculum to strengthen the student's main field of study. For instance, an engineering student may benefit from studying sociology to understand the societal impact of engineering.

In conclusion, students should only take courses outside their field of study if they support their major courses' learning objectives. Students should focus mainly on their primary courses to become competent professionals in their field of study. Nonetheless, fundamental courses complementing their primary field of study can aid in their career growth and should be incorporated where necessary.
