However, students in China have a more solid foundation in science and engineering, and it is easier to create differentiated employment competitiveness by choosing science and engineering. For example, students majoring in science and engineering, such as electronics, communications, architecture, machinery and chemical engineering, are more likely to achieve extraordinary professional achievements after graduation.

Extended reading: safety precautions for studying abroad

1. Don't carry large cash bank cards with you.

In China, people have the habit of carrying cash with them, while abroad, they mainly use various cards for consumption. If you go out with less cash, don't put more cash in the dormitory, which can effectively reduce property losses. New students should deposit cash into the bank account immediately. Previously, students' schoolbags and wallets were stolen in schools, restaurants and trains. If there is not much money in the wallet, it is not a big loss. Usually, it is enough to put 100 in your wallet.

Try not to carry bank cards or credit cards. Because once lost, it is easy for others to use your bank card or credit card to get a lot of money from you. If your wallet is stolen or threatened by a password, you need to inform the bank immediately.

2. The school dormitory is better than renting out.

When some students plan to study abroad, they always like to rent their own houses and give up their dormitories. In fact, there is a big hidden danger: students don't know enough about the city where the school is located, and they don't know which areas are unsafe or have a high crime rate. They are likely to live in the above areas simply because the price is lower under the same conditions.

Therefore, it is recommended that students who have just started studying abroad live in campus dormitories as much as possible. If you must go out to rent a house, you can also go to the local area and get to know the local area before doing it. And don't choose too remote places, and don't blindly covet cheap.

3. Communicate more and integrate into local life

In addition, students are advised to consciously learn how to communicate with others before going abroad to improve their ability to adapt to foreign life and solve problems. In addition, before going abroad, you should learn all kinds of safety knowledge through various channels and take the initiative to ask the school for relevant safety materials, manuals and emergency contact numbers to prevent problems before they happen; When you go abroad, you should know the local security situation as soon as possible. Once the residence is determined, it is necessary to ask the local residents about the surrounding environment and pay attention to whether there are safety measures, such as building alarms and roadside free call for help.

Every school generally has a special department to manage the international students in the school, and the office of international students in the school is the most direct department for students to seek help. General problems can be properly solved through consultation or direct reflection to the international student office. In case of emergency, you can also seek the assistance of China Overseas Students Association, the local embassy and consulate of China and the local police.
