I'm a 2.1 University Criminology graduate. I did my second degree in Child Nursing, passed my final year exam's set up for a first...only to get to the point where I couldn't afford to commute to my nursing placement at the end of my final year. This was exacerbated by Middle Class students protesting they didn't want any debt, and wanted the bursaries back. This made it completely impossible for me to return, as I would have had to feed my family, and commute to placement with 700 pounds a month, down from 800. Thanks to the Middle Class, again ensuring Nursing can only be accessed by those privileged enough to have money from the bank of mum and dad. I'm working at Primark! Primark are happy though, not every retailer can say they have a second aider, rather than a first, working with their customers. 🤬
Thank you, practical skills should be thought in school. For instance alot of employers requires you to be good with excel, why is Excel no taught to high standard as one of courses offered on curriculum? So its crazy, you leave school and remain unemployable!
If there is a vaccine requirement might as well fill a will from the bad side effects. Other than that you still need productive skills to be job competitive.
..yes, for example a man from ghana can pick up a university degree for 2 chicken-bones in Botswana market! .....then all he has to do is jump on a plane to England ..pick up his visa ...and 'bingo; ...-instant career as a Doctor !.......-sorted ! 😁
This comment is not an informed one because it doesn’t work as you described it. You wish many of this folks you are referring to arnt brighter than you. Just cos you are lucky to be born in a country with leaders who mean well doesn’t exactly give you the right to talk down on people with lesser to no opportunities to improve their lives. In the end we’l probably find out you haven’t contributed to the the development of your country in any particular way. Like I said, you might have just been lucky to have opportunities cos you happened to be born into an enabling environment! That doesn’t make you better than anyone else really.
@@contemplatinggod2791 garbage I work in student finance and many of these "high class" students from Africa etc are thick as mince. A degree from over there is equivalent to a secondary school qualification over here.
ime, education is crucial… otoh, being taught what to think and not how to think is, apparently, what now passes as formal education in far too many universities
Developments in science, medicine, technology, engineering etc come from educated people with college degrees, not Trev from down the pub with 1 GCSE. The anti-intellectualism of right-wingers is quite simply insane
@@stephfoxwell4620 its mostly knowing friends from your school that will help get you a job. Other than that maybe a certain skill you learned will help you get into the job.
So you've narrowed it to chances of employment. You sad no good to themselves or the country. There is more to a broad education than getting a job. It is about having a better life, wider experience and social circle. University graduates divorce less. They commit less crime. They lead healthier ,happier lives.
My wife has a Psychology degree. She has had a very happy and successful career in Primary teaching and as a Deputy Head. She is highly regarded by colleagues and parents and much loved by the pupils.
By current trend you will need uni degree to be a litter picker....and masters to be employed as a cleaner. Micky Mouse degrees.. .but if people that DUMB to think university degree = guaranteed well paid job.... good luck 👍 still.... it's an advantage but NOT guarantee.

I've got a degree in race grifting , it was the best 30 minutes i ever spent.
Work Experience > Degree
By a milestone.
I went to university to avoid the work place.
STEM, yes. Mickey Mouse, no.
Unfortunately, companies say they require graduates with degrees, for jobs that in noway require them.
That's because degrees are supposed to demonstrate the capability is there to go through the ranks (it's cost effective for the company).

Bloody good idea to fine universities
Depends whether you'll ever get a job to clear the debts you've accrued in your life time 🤔
Why?
Nope and I've no intention of doing so. Jocks get a publicly funded university education, so why can't I?
No

I see a university advert before seeing this video = bad sign if you need to advertise

If a course is titled '(anything) studies' you can pretty much guarantee being able to get a job at McDonalds on minimum wage.

Nope.
Obviously yes. A vast improvement in life chances and an enhancement to quality of life for both the individual student and society as a whole.
If you mean from any of the STEM subjects then yes, any other subjects then no, absolutely not.
Does society not benefit from better educated customers, workers, neighbours ,parents etc?
