College and
university are known as a higher form of education which allows people to
broaden their horizons, culture, knowledge and career prospects. The way I see
it, they are a very important part of the education system as going to
university is not just about getting a
degree – it is also about building and developing key skills that will help you
succeed further down the line in whatever career path you choose to follow.
Firstly,
they allow us to refine ourselves in a specific area that we would like to
study after high school. Many people go there to learn more about a subject
that will prepare them for their future job. Also, if they take a great
interest in art, science, etc. they will be able to learn more about it there
since the material in high school is less detailed than the one in those
institutions. Furthermore, it becomes
easier to find a job if you have a college or university degree.
And, while
a degree is not always necessary to get a job, it can act as a passport to more
specialist jobs that you otherwise would not be able to pursue. For example, it
would be impossible to become a doctor without the appropriate education
Secondly,
if you would like to study abroad it could broaden your horizons and mould you
into the
person you have always wanted to be. Since you collide with a new
culture you become more tolerant while learning about the country’s history and
traditions. In addition, if the people in that country speak a language
different than your maternal one, you will be able to learn it and the
knowledge of languages will be beneficial to you in many aspects as finding a
job and travelling.
Last but
not least, people might want to attend college or university to find new
friends and for the experience itself. In many American movies the whole
experience is being idealized with all the parties and the freedom of being
independent. That idealization might bring them to want to see for themselves
what it is like, although we all know that it is hardly what we see on television.
In conclusion, there are many reasons why
people want to attend a college or a university whether it being for the knowledge,
the experience or because it is easier to find a job with a Master‘s degree or
a Ph.D. In my opinion, it is an essential part of one’s education. So, do I
need to be going to university or not, in order to take the next step in
starting and building a career, should not be even a dilemma.
