And those related to the arts consist of half of them, including performing, animation, art and design, broadcasting and hosting.A graduate from Linyi University majoring in piano admits that she and her peers' prospects are dim."I majored in music, I graduated a couple of months ago. I'm now working on foreign trade for an enterprise. Many of my peers' occupations are irrelevant to their majors."Xie Fei, a famous director and also a professor from the Beijing Film Academy, explains why graduates with arts-related majors are not in vogue."It's because these majors have been developing quite unrealistically for the past years. There are too many students majoring in film and TV production, or broadcasting and hosting, and there are not enough qualified teachers. Those facts lead to students without high qualities."In addition to art majors, some of those majors used to be in very high demand, such as law, biological science, tourism management and civil engineering.Xie Yang, a senior lawyer who has been engaged in the law profession for 16 years, explains why those once hot majors are becoming less popular. "There are too many law schools in China. We have an over capacity of supply compared to market demand, while, at the same time, we have a shortage of very qualified and skillful talents."But Xie also suggests that young people should substantiate themselves by self-improvement. As long as they never give up expanding their knowledge and skills, they will eventually get an opportunity to show their talents in society.
