Demand of professionals

"Developing Chinese medicine and paying equal attention to both Chinese and Western medicine" is the basic policy formulated by China government in the medical field. Chinese medicine has a solid and broad mass base, and the demand for Chinese medicine talents has long existed in society.

However, compared with western medicine majors, it is indeed more difficult for graduates of Chinese medicine majors to find jobs. Hospitals in large and medium-sized cities tend to recruit experienced old Chinese medicine practitioners from the society even if they need Chinese medicine talents.

Outside China (such as Southeast Asia), more and more countries attach importance to TCM, and the demand for TCM talents in some countries will greatly increase. Going abroad for employment is also a way out for Chinese medicine graduates.
