Ten majors cancelled in 2023

The top ten majors cancelled in 2023 are mainly liberal arts management, as follows:

1, information management and information system.

After the Ministry of Education of China announced the examination and approval results of undergraduate majors in colleges and universities in 2022, the major of information management and information system became one of the most cancelled majors, and was "eliminated" by 27 colleges and universities, mainly because the theoretical and practical abilities of the major of information management and information system did not match.

2. Twenty-three colleges and universities cancelled their business administration majors.

The Reform Plan for Adjustment and Optimization of Discipline and Specialty Settings in Colleges and Universities issued by the Ministry of Education and other five departments has defined a series of objectives and measures. It is planned that by 2025, about 20% of university disciplines will be optimized and adjusted, and a number of disciplines and specialties such as new engineering, new medicine, new agricultural science, new liberal arts and basic disciplines will be set up or optimized to meet the development requirements of the new era.

3. Marketing major, 22 universities were cancelled.

Due to the constant saturation and rapid expansion of talents in this major in colleges and universities in previous years, a large number of time periods of this major coincided with the rapid start of China's market economy. In this era, the demand for young talents in this major is not so great.

4. Product Design and Information and Computing Science 265,438+0 University.

Advertising design has been largely revoked, which is consistent with the reason why marketing has been largely revoked, while information and computing science is related to a change in this major in recent years. At present, many universities in this major have turned to artificial intelligence and big data related majors.

5. Advertising, 18 University cancelled.

In recent years, with the transformation of market talents and the continuous innovation of technology, the demand for employees in related industries is also decreasing. The number of cancellations is quite large, which fully meets some expectations of the outside world. With the development of the Internet, the entire advertising industry is undergoing radical changes, and the training direction of relevant talents needs some adjustment.

6. Electronic information science and technology, cancelled by 13 universities.

In the current form, electronic science and technology are facing difficulties such as slow research progress, limited application scope or being replaced by other technologies. Revocation can promote the academic circles to rethink the development direction of this discipline, so as to better adapt to the needs of today's society and market.

7. There are 12 universities specializing in measurement and control technology and instruments, biotechnology and network engineering.

The social demand becomes smaller, the talents are saturated, and the specialty lacks development potential. Some schools may not be able to recruit all these majors when enrolling students, so they will cancel these majors in order to ensure the quality of learning.

8. Hotel management major, cancel 1 1 university.

Hotel management service education is relatively backward, and it is out of touch with social needs in teaching resources, teachers and teaching theories. At the same time, many things are not detailed, many of them are theories and lack of practice, which are out of touch with the problems in hotel management in reality, unable to solve practical problems and not practical.

9. There are 10 universities specializing in physical geography, resources and environment.

In the undergraduate study stage of this major, the course content is very wide and miscellaneous, and the professional content is not refined, so the professionalism is not too high. After graduating from this major, college students can do less work and have little potential in the job market. The Ministry of Education also said that the cancellation of unrelated majors in colleges and universities is only to make college students better employed.

10, major in e-commerce, cancelled by 9 universities.

There is an obvious imbalance between this major and the demand of the job market. In order to optimize the major structure of colleges and universities, the Ministry of Education recently revoked the major of colleges and universities. For example, some time ago, the Ministry of Education issued a document to cancel many majors with low employment rate in colleges and universities, and stopped the enrollment expansion of colleges and universities in time.

The above data comes from the college entrance examination.
