The income of college teachers is not high, why do a large number of returnees strive to become college teachers?

First, the university environment is relatively simple.

This may be an important reason why many returnees want to choose colleges and universities, because students studying abroad are generally more likely to accept relatively simple environments, including less complicated interpersonal relationships. Because they spend most of their time at school, but generally speaking, they do things according to the rules abroad, and there are few so-called hidden rules. So relatively speaking, in colleges and universities, although it is not very different from society, it is relatively simple, and this environment is relatively suitable for many returnees. If they are allowed to enter the society, just like people in other industries, many of them will still feel uncomfortable, so I think this is a very important psychological factor in their choice of colleges and universities.

Second, scientific research is their main ability.

Most returnees, of course, I mean people with doctoral degrees or above, have been engaged in scientific research relatively. Therefore, if you work in colleges and universities, it will help them to continue their scientific research work. Moreover, the inheritance of such a job is more accustomed to them and suitable for them, so it will be more convenient to work in colleges and universities.

Third, the current recruitment conditions of China University.

At present, there is a tendency for domestic colleges and universities to recruit teachers, that is, the same type of colleges and universities at home and abroad must give priority to foreign countries, which also provides such convenience for some overseas returnees. Because domestic colleges and universities now pay attention to the so-called internationalization of teachers, many schools still have many preferential policies for overseas doctors, so under the preferential policies, many returnees are still willing to choose to return to China to be teachers in colleges and universities.
