I believe you're correct in saying that university shouldn't just be about getting a high paying job. Our society suffers because our brightest people are too narrowly educated. A physician used to typically be one of the most educated people in a community; now a physician is one of the least educated persons in a community. A pre-med student simply can't risk taking a course they might not ace. Few physicians have studied philosophy, art, political science, literature beyond english 101, etc.
My advice would be to take the minimalComputer Science corses you'll need, you'll end up learning plenty if that's your chosen professeion. Beyond that take courses that expand your horizon's and thinking, You need to decide what courses those will be.
- sebkomianos 15y agoThanks, but I have already graduated. And although my thoughts about the education I received at university are not really positive for I still believe in the beauty of knowledge. That's why I am asking for suggestions on topics to dive into.
