In some rapidly developing countries, increasing university students major in business, accounting, communication or computer programing rather than science. I personally believe that this is an inevitable transition in the era of information and globalization when capital flows worldwide and communication technology play a role in almost every field. The changes in technology and social evolvement are being reflected in the university subject preference. The first reason that science loses its popularity to other disciplines relates to the employment rate and starting salaries upon graduation.Science undergraduates risk higher unemployment and earn less than computer programmers or businessmen and the gap may be wider in Master degree.During the economic recession, some students with interest in science may give in to the pressure in reality. Another contributor is the difficulty of science subjects that prevent many potential students from enrolling in this faculty.Picturing oneself as a scientist is not easy for a high school leaver. On top of the difficulty of this discipline itself, the application in practice and transforming into profit is harder. However, science is so crucial to our human society that no country can afford the consequences of ignoring it.Science is the basis of many practical disciplines such as environment science, medical science, space science, engineering, genetic science and so forth. Without the support of general science, many other fields would find it very challenging to get further developed. What’s worse, science is directly related to our material life. We live on scientific research findings and products, ranging from energy supply, aircraft to numerous consumer goods.It is hard to imagine living a life without these scientific advancements. To sum up this report, science is less popular than before because the society demands more professionals in other fields such as business and communication.However I’m convinced that the potential implications are negative to the health of society, hence requiring relevant solutions to reverse the trend.
