How to choose a major that suits you when studying in France?

1, know about employment, know yourself, only choose the right one, not the popular one.

Choosing the study direction is basically the same as choosing the employment direction. The direction of study largely determines the direction of employment in the future, especially if you pay attention to professionalism in a society like France. At the same time, choosing the direction is also a process of knowing yourself, determining yourself, what you want to do, what you are suitable for, and finally choosing what to do. In the current employment situation is not optimistic, employment considerations and personal choices need to be taken into account. For example, some schools in France will ask students to write a Projetprofessionnel Nell, which is basically to analyze their personality, experience and ability, analyze the current situation of the French job market, and finally draw a conclusion about what occupation they can engage in.

You may know more about the domestic job market than we do, so I won't say more. The French job market is not optimistic recently, and it is difficult for some high flyers to find jobs. Most students studying in France are liberal arts and management, but it is difficult to find jobs. Once a friend who graduated with a doctorate in literature submitted hundreds of resumes in France without any news, and later found a good job in China. In France, such as marketing, human resources, media and so on all need a good language and cultural foundation, and at the same time, they are not as good as the French in these aspects, so it is difficult to find a job. Unless it is a Chinese-funded enterprise in the local Chinese community, such positions are rare. If you consider employment in France, especially in French companies, technical majors are relatively easy, such as IT technology, financial auditing and so on. However, I still suggest that you don't just focus on hot majors, because hot occupations are also unstable because of economic changes. For example, during the financial crisis in 2008, it was difficult for many students studying finance to find jobs. In addition to looking for a job in the job market, our direction should also be suitable for our own preferences, so as to do it well and for a long time.

2, more contact, more understanding, broader vision, better choice.

Choosing the direction and not understanding the reality is the paradox of many of our classmates. On the one hand, you should choose your major and employment direction, on the other hand, you know little about these majors, especially in the workplace. What should we do? The best way is to get in touch early, learn more, broaden our horizons and make a clearer choice about our future direction. There are also many popular majors in France, but not all of them are within your ability. If you don't have something you like, you should choose the right one at this time, instead of following the crowd.

Studying in France is not like on campus or in dormitories in China. Teachers and classmates usually deal with each other. French universities have no gates, and everyone faces only one French society. On the other hand, French society is closed to many people, because everyone has limited opportunities to know the French and make French friends. Therefore, on the one hand, you can get in touch with and get to know some French classmates and alumni associations of domestic universities, on the other hand, you can get to know and get in touch with French classmates through various opportunities, especially French society and French workplace. Now the network is very developed, for example, you can make many friends through Facebook, Linkedin, Viadeo, Meetup, etc. In addition, there are many party activities in France, so you should attend more if you have the opportunity. Besides studying, the experience of studying in France can also open a new world for you.

3. Find a good internship and accumulate experience to enter the workplace as soon as possible.

There is basically a stage of studying in France called StagedeFormation, which lasts for three to six months and mainly works and studies in enterprises in the form of interns. Internship is a very important opportunity for international students. You can find an internship according to your own employment and development direction. In addition to getting professional skills through internship, the internship experience in your resume is also an important asset for you to find a job in the future. A good company, a good position and a good internship can add a lot to your future job search. In addition, substantial internship experience can cultivate your professional ability and self-confidence.

In the past, many large French companies would recruit a large number of interns and then choose some people to stay and work. But now there are fewer and fewer such opportunities, and it is increasingly difficult to find internships, especially good internships. Therefore, everyone should make preparations, make plans, find internships and better open the door to the workplace through internships.

Go back to China or stay in France. Don't hang yourself from a tree.

For many students who have passed the study abroad, whether to return to China or stay in France or immigrate to the United States and Canada is a tangled and long-term problem. In fact, you don't need to think too much, the plan can't keep up with the changes, and there is no need to wait until that stage to make a decision. After all, you can't make decisions and guarantees for your future. So as an experienced person's advice, don't entangle these problems too early, and you will be straight when you get to the bridge. Although there are many majors in France, if none of them suits you or you have secretly set a goal, don't be swayed by other factors.

However, another suggestion is that many students are usually very persistent when making choices, and once they are determined, they will remain unchanged. Unless your family is at home and you have no plans to go abroad for development, you must return to China. Otherwise, even if you choose to return to China, you need to be cautious. Find the next place before stepping on the next step, step by step, and don't hang yourself on a tree. If you are not satisfied with finding a job in China after studying abroad, and then want to try France, it will be too late to regret it. So, like the classmate I mentioned before, she went back to China to interview many companies while looking for a job in France, and finally found her most satisfactory job in both French enterprises and China enterprises. Even if I go back to China, I won't regret it. Whether you are looking for a job, school or internship, you should give yourself more choices and opportunities, and don't hang yourself on a tree.

5. Method

Several commonly used professional and employment choice consulting websites in France:

/

Note 1: If you are an art major, such as domestic professional fine arts, or industrial design, decoration and advertising design, and want to learn theory, public university lUniverstié can learn it, but generally it is only equivalent to an undergraduate diploma. There are DEA and DESS in Paris I, but the language requirements are very high.

Note 2: If you want to study liberal arts majors, such as journalism, media and law, it is very difficult and theoretical. These majors have high requirements for language, and it is difficult for you to have a considerable understanding and accumulation of the culture and history behind the language of these majors, which can not be done in a year or two. So, either read from the beginning or have great language skills. Good lUniverstié is a good choice, which is very helpful to the cultivation of cultural temperament. Paris 1~4 University and Marseille 3 University are all very good schools in this field.

Note 3: If you want to study engineering, it is a very good choice to graduate from relevant domestic majors, especially French majors such as chemical engineering, material science and automobile manufacturing are world-class. Computer major is one of the hottest majors in France at present. So what major should I study in France? It depends on your own choice. This decision is not so easy.
