My View on The Craze of Pursuing Graduate Studies

In recentyears, there is an increasing number of college or university students go topursue graduate studies, also known as the craze of pursuing graduate studies. However,the increasing craze of pursuing graduate studies has also caused many problemsin the meanwhile.

近几年，越来越多的大学生追求研究生学习，这一现象也叫研究生求学热。然而，研究生求学热的不断升温也已经同时引起了很多问题。

On onehand, the crazy of pursuing graduate studies has reflected the students’eagerness of knowledge and the progress of the society. In addition, the crazeof pursuing graduate studies has alleviated employment pressure in a manner.

一方面，研究生求学热反应了学生对知识的渴望和社会的进步。另外，研究生求学热以某种方式缓解了就业压力。

But on theother hand, many problems have followed. In the first place, with thedevelopment of the craze of pursuing graduate studies, a lot of colleges and universitieshave carried out the postgraduate education enrollment expansion policy. Thepolicy has some bad impact on the quality of postgraduate education. Moreover,the craze of pursuing graduate studies has increased the difficulty for the graduateemployment. With the increase of the graduate students, the postgraduatediploma has devaluated in some degree and that has caused the graduate studentssuffer more when hunting jobs. Last but not the least, the craze of pursuing ofgraduate studies has great impact on students themselves. For one thing, it hasgreatly increased the pressure from competition between students which has agreat influence on students’ physical and mental health. For another, those whohave a fanatical pursuit for qualification or degree are usually lack of practicalability and have less knowledge than others.

但是，另一方面，很多问题也随之而来。首先，随着研究生求学热的发展，很多高校实施了研究生教育的扩招政策。这一政策对研究生教育产生不良影响。而且，研究生求学热增加了毕业生就业的困难。随着毕业生的增多，研究生文凭在某种程度上已经贬值了，致使毕业生在找工作过程中承受更多困难。最后但也同样重要的一点，研究生呢个求学热对大学生本身也产生很大影响。一方面，它大大增加了学生之间的竞争压力，这对学生的身体和精神都产生很大的影响。另一方面，那些学历或学位有着狂热的追求的人常常却反实践能力，并且比其他人懂得更少的知识。

In a word, thecraze of pursuing graduate studies has been a hot topic on campus. As far as Iam concerned, we should take a critical attitude to treat this phenomenon. 

总之，研究生求学热已经成为校园的热题。在我看来，我们应该采取批判的态度对待这一现象。
