美国大学排名中找工作时最有参考价值的参考？

 

　　不论已经成功留学海外的同学,还是有准备申请打算的同学来说,相信在选择学校时,都会参考一些大学排名,而我们也都希望能申请到那些排名靠前的学校。特别是在美国大学申请的时候,usnews,times等等机构的排名都被我们所熟阅。那么,这些美国大学的排名到底有多大的用处呢?这些排名除了能在我们选校时可以作为参考,那在我们找工作时,那些雇主会不会也会参考呢?

　　下面,让我们来看看美国大学录取专家joyce的意见吧：

　　many student ask me which u.s. ranking of colleges is best for getting the best job opportunities after graduation。it is an excellent question.it is something that so many students and their families think about and seldom ask.it is also a complex question, as most good questions are because it brings up two questions:

　　what is the difference in u.s. college ranking?

　　which ranking is best for job opportunities?

　　很多学生问我哪种美国大学排名对将来找工作用处最大?这是个非常好的问题。实际上,很多的学生和家长都很关心这方面的信息,却很少有人提出来。好问题往往是复杂的,它也不例外,我们可以把它分成两个问题来理解：

　　1.美国大学各个排名之间的区别在哪里?

　　2.哪个排名在你找工作的时候对雇主的参考价值最高

　　it’s begin with your question about job opportunities according to rankings. it will be hard for you to accept that the particular college graduate has much more influence in the job that they get than the ranking of their college.it is hard for you to understand simply because you come from a culture who worships rankings.that kind of superficial understanding makes it hard for you to believe in any other system of influence.

　　让我们先讨论一下排名对于求职的影响。如果让你相信,在面试时你的个人才智比你所毕业的那所学校排名更重要也许很难。因为在中国悠久的历史当中,排名一直是个被高度崇尚的因素。而对于成长在这样一种环境中的你来说,去接受另外一种思维模式的确非常难。

　　no matter your belief, the best way for you to judge is to look at the evidence.for example,the u.s. president richard nixon, the american president who first came to china to meet chairman mao and opened up the political relations between the china and the usa graduated from whitman college.president obama went to occidental college in the state of california.another good example that you can easily google and check out for yourself are the list of colleges where the presidents of the fortune five hundred companies (top international business corporations) went to college.

　　但中国也有句俗话,实践出真知。我们一起来看看下面几个例子：和毛主席共同开辟了中美关系历史性篇章的尼克松总统毕业于惠特学院(whittier college)。现任美国总统奥巴马曾就读于加州的西方学院(occidental college)。还有一些对你来说很容易找到的例子,就是去网上搜一下世界500强的ceo都分别毕业于哪所大学。

 

i have never met a chinese high school student, and i have talked to students from harbin to shenzhen, from shanghai to chendu, who didn’t think that if only they could go to harvard they would be rich and famous.you will see in the list of the fortune five hundred companies that as many of these corporate presidents went to the university of texas as to harvard and became presidents of a top international corporation.

 

　　从哈尔滨到深圳,从上海到成都,可以说,我本人接触过的中国学生遍布中国各地,但我还从未遇见一个没有只有从哈佛毕业才能出人头地这种想法的学生。如果你查了福布斯排行榜上那些公司ceo的出处,你就会发现,很多人去的是德克萨斯大学,而不是哈佛。
