摘要
美国文理学院作为美国高等教育的重要组成部分,具有悠久的历史。它的专业设置广泛,推行博雅教育、实施小规模教学和通识教育,使其成为美国本科教育的代表。但是,文理学院也面临着一些生存和发展的挑战,从高等教育供给看,办学成本高和高校间竞争加剧增加生存和发展难度;就人力资源市场需求而言,专业化和职业化能力需求与文理学院办学目标存在一定程度的矛盾,需要加以注意。对于留学决策来说,有三点启示:正确认识美国高等教育系统及其各组成部分的作用;明确自身基础和留学目标;切合中国劳动力市场的需求。
With long history,American Liberal Arts College is the important component of higher education in the United States.The American Liberal Arts College has been the representative of American college education for its various major settings as well as its practice of liberal art education,teaching in small scales,and general education.However,those Liberal Arts Colleges are encountering some challenges for survival and development.From the perspective of higher education supply,high cost in college-running and fierce competition among colleges make the survival and development of Liberal Arts College increasingly difficult.From the perspective of the demands of human resources market,there is the contradiction between the college-running goal of the Liberal Arts College and the demands of professionalization and vocationalization in it.From the angle of making decisions whether to study overseas,there are three revelations as follows:to correctly understand American higher education system and the function of each component in it;to clarify the students’specific base and aim of studying overseas;to meet the demand of China’s labor market.
