Should some university degrees that do not have or add real value be scraped out?

  • 3

There aren’t many people who go to university and spend a lot of time and money only to earn valueless degrees. These degrees don’t give them the opportunity to secure good paying jobs. So, what is the end goal of getting such degrees?

      I think that majors that do not point towards a finite career can sometimes be labeled as useless. Consider someone studying pre-law, biology, education or theology, these students plan to become lawyers, doctors, teachers or priests. Some majors for example, philosophy, art and others may not lend themselves as easily to occupations that will secure a paycheck. I am not in agreement with this position, but can understand why some people may share this sentiment that these major be removed.

      The world as it is today is skill-driven. You generally need skills that can be used in a workplace to get a job, and not just your college degree The world has changed rapidly. Ultimately, everyone is going to work in the private or public somewhere and both of these places have the majority of the jobs that fall into categories like;
      Engineering, IT, CS, Data Science, Architecture, urban planning, coordinating, Hiring, staff, organizational— HR, counseling, learning, training, Management and finance
      If you have a degree in philosophy, you don’t fit into any of the above categories. You do not have any skills that are actually usuable for a company. All of the jobs above are generally skills based. What skills do you have as a Philosophy major that could be used here? Almost none! Which might render you valueless. So if you get a degree in English or Philosophy or other majors that are not skills driven, then your only hope is academia. For academia, you generally need a PHD. If you just have a bachelor’s degree, you generally can’t even teach high school.
