The recession has brought about an abrupt change of mood on university campuses up and down the country. A five-year boom in the graduate job market has been stopped in its tracks and salary expectations. No wonder only one in five of 16, 000 final year students questioned for a survey by High Flyers Research said that they expected to get a job for which they are qualified by the time they graduate.
Despite the gloom, the financial case for going to university remains compelling. International surveys continue to show the salary premium enjoyed by UK graduates over those who choose not to go to university as among the highest in the world. In the post-recession world, a university degree is likely to be even more of an advantage to job-seekers than before. But choosing the right degree course and the right university will also be more important than ever. This does not necessarily mean that students should go only for job-related degrees, but it will put a premium on marketable skills. And it may mean that more universities can be expected to follow the lead of Liverpool John Moores University, which puts all of its undergraduates through a World of Work(WoW)course designed to give them the problem-solving and communication skills they’ll need at work.
The Times Good University Guide 2010, published by HarperCollins, offers a wealth of essential information to help candidates to navigate the maze of university choice, as well as advice on students’ life. It is the most authoritative guide to universities in the UK and is an essential and comprehensive tool for students and parents.
The online version of the Guide allows students and parents to create their own individual university rankings and to compare the strengths and weaknesses of different institutions by sorting universities according to one of the eight criteria—from student satisfaction to research quality and degree results. The table sees Oxford maintain its leadership, despite coming below Cambridge in most of the subject tables. Cambridge has the better record on student satisfaction, research, entry standards, completion and graduate destinations, but Oxford’s lead in staffing levels, degree classifications and particularly in spending on libraries and other student facilities makes the difference.
Summary:
Up until recently, students expected to earn good money after graduation. However, there has been a dramatic【R1】______in attitude, and a minority now think that they’ll work in a field that they are【R2】______for. It is still worth doing higher studies in the UK because the gap in earning between university graduates and the people who do not have university degrees is greater than anywhere else in the world. Students don’t have to go only for job-related degrees. However, choosing the right degree course and the right university will【R3】______on marketable skills. The Times Good University Guide 2010 provides students and parents with the【R4】______in choosing the right university and advice on students’ life, and its online version allows students and parents to compare the【R5】______of institutions by sorting universities with one of the eight criteria, such as student satisfaction.
