PhDs in fields that matter like engineering and machine learning pull 7 figure salaries in the private sector. google and many other companies have this publicly available for you to see PhD just means youre an expert; the value comes from WHAT youre an expert in
@cc1drt very very few companies/jobs require a PhDs...and only in those big countries. Just search your favorite job portal....look at how many jobs require PhDs AND check if salaries are even higher than others. I have an engineering degree...I have been looking at jobs asking for PhDs. First they are few , second most pay as much if not less than I or the average engineer make 😢
It's not just in China but Indian students are also facing the similar situations. I didn't go for a PhD just because of his reason. Positions are very few, too many candidates with experience are in the line and nepotism is rampant everywhere.
@@Un1234l Not the US. Only 40% of the "younger" population has a BA or higher. _In 2021, about 41 percent of the United States population aged 25 to 34 years had attained a bachelor's degree or higher._
India's education system can be fixed. China's cannot because the Chinese Communist Party has no sympathy for its people and views them as economic tools and nothing more.
It is a world problem....formal qualifications are not enough to land a job. However, combined with some other qualification they can still be valuable.
The fact that there are so many people in China who can graduate with high level degrees in STEM fields, Medicine, Business, Law and emerging fields isn't shocking when you know the way schools work, yet the number of people on the street who you would imagine holding such degrees and having a high level of education is what is hard to see. I am not talking about like people who are in low paying jobs or anything like that, rather their actions and behaviors. I live in Guangzhou tier 1 city and the amount of people who would make uneducated middle school drops out in rural Guizhou blush with embarrassment is staggering. What good is such high level education if the person getting it doesn't learn how to behave in society to an equal level?
In PRC current environment, nothing is worth anything. It doesn’t matter whether you are a Bachelor, Master or PhD. In a market where supply exceeds demand by a big proportion, the price will definitely be heading south.
Their aggressive and violent foreign policy lead to an exodus of high value industries and now their CCP mandated Chinese needed at big firms to spy and take technology/ procedures are gone. Only God can help them now.
The numbers are skewed. I had a friend who was from there and had a PhD and she said when she came to the United States she had to go to college all over again because the educational bar there is lower. They call people PhD and such for the sake of doing it, it’s an image thing, when the fact of the matter is they’re under educated by comparison.
as a doctoral student in America, I know full well that the Chinese doctoral holders used to bet on going to America to make good money as professors, researchers and engineers...and with the issues going on between those countries those Chinese doctoral holders cant make that good money in China
Is it so hard for these bachelor, masters, PhD etc grads to understand market supply and demand? If they are clueless about their predicament, they may be the ones to blame for blindly chasing qualifications, wasting precious employment experience and taking on debt.
This is all fair, but remember how smart you were in yourvearlyv20s? I was an idiot. Youth are easily manipulated. Its not all their fault. But I agree, that in the end, each person is responsible for their choices.
They literally live in a country that doesn't know that. They were taught that economics are whatever the hell the CCP wants it to be. How were they supposed to know that when the most what is supposed to be common sense knowledge is censored!?
It's the same in America. People are realizing college is a scam so people are finally not falling down that money trap anymore. Real life experience is more admired and real life intelligence you can't learn in school.
Plumbers and repairman are debt-free and making bank! Same with hair-dressers aestheticians etc. I tell my kids not to bother with college unless there is a specific job they want that requires a bachelor's - do a technical school or figure something else out. However I will say Chinese culture really is education and qualifications = success so it's hard to change this mindset. America was never quite like that.
Yeah, unfortunately those days are long gone. Decades ago, was the thing to do, go to a 4-year university, graduate, work for a reputable company for 40 years then retired. And only 1 income could feed the entire family...
Here in the US, a High School diploma was a big deal before it became compulsory. Now its pretty worthless. Bachelor degrees are slowly joining this. But whoa! 28k USD?! Thats something unskilled labor makes here. I make about twice that and i have an associates degree (2-year)
PhD in the field of non-applicable knowledge where the only utilization of your skill is how to write papers for getting grants. Meanwhile Coq is proofing math already.
We had a chinese ‘phd’ teach us in 3rd year. Absolute disaster. Not knowledgeable in the field, all over the place, couldn’t speak the language properly. Disgrace we had to pay tuition for that. Don’t think these ‘phd’s from china are worth the paper they’re on.
In the States similar problem with Phd's. In the States these degrees are mostly nonsense subjects or connected to industry/electronics. I would not be surprised in China they are mostly pragmatic degrees, connected to the latter. Originally, traditionally, Phds and other degrees were about religion, philosophy, history, literature, general science/medical, and legal. They had little to do with the industrial or technological. Not anymore in the U.S. and Asians, I find, follow the U.S. model in higher education. China is very pragmatic and probably most degrees are technoligical or industrial. I am a Caucasian American male married 51 years to my Chinese wife. We met at an American university. I got to know most of the Asian students, from different Asian countries, male and female, all were studying something for a lucrative career, usually business or medical. None were studying the traditional subjects. I went on to teach English-Literature in American public schools for 32 years. All of my wife's relatives thought that was odd of me. Hey, we made an ok living! Our house is paid for and our retirement is fine here in Florida. All of my wife's Chinese relations are hurting financially, and nearly all are divorced. All seem to live for money and success. And religion means little or nothing to them. I find these observations interesting.
Over-saturation. Too much of anything, including college degrees will ultimately diminish it's value. No matter what... One cannot escape the law of supply and demand.
This makes sense to me. Just because a country is big it does not mean that it needs more phd graduates than a medium sized country. Eg you only need so many banks or insurance companies or on line platforms.
Spend 24 years in studying n the money used. All wasted for a piece of PHD paper n now work as a delivery guy. Many went to thailand n are force into doing scam job in myanmar with no way out.👈🤫🤫✌️

Not every child is STEM material. Educations problem not educating the student to what they are good at. That mean identifying there talents at a young age. School in my opinion does not do this. For example, you have a person as a adult who was trained as a banker but has a passion for furniture building. Yes people say, " Oh that's no stable what kind of job can you get with that". The end result a society of unfulfilled jobs and folks. Schools teach for getting a job and not to the students talents. The talent has to be recognized when they are little. Emplyers want labor and don't want to pay for talent either.
Pure facts spoken right here, the education system could do a lot better if they focused on developing talents from a young age instead of shoveling garbage information through our children minds. I believe if our government truly wanted educate the population in more efficient manner they would have already done so, but because they want to profit off citizens and control them, the system will remain the way it is.
This is a problem throughout Asia. Too many college grads. There are only so many project managers, programmers, and engineers needed. Many programmers will be jobless as AI replaces mid level coders. That's happening right now. Meta, Google, and others are not hiring coders this year.
Its whats happening in US university. Education facilities are now businesses, meant to bust out degrees. Once you graduate, there is no jobs in my field. Now that there are less entries, they lower the bar to include even those who have lower SAT scores. Now they aren't even using SAT scores. So they made a bunch of worthless degrees to rake in more money. What happened is education, is that facilities made college degrees worthless.

40 years ago in Austin I had a friend who worked at a Customer Service desk in a Savings and Loan. A step above Teller. Her degree was in Library Science.

Can you imagine having a Masters so you can return books over 6 floors, and wake up, or "shshsh!" smelly homeplus people all day?
Oh yes, China where deception and manipulation are paramount to a thriving education system that only seeks to make a profit with little to nothing in return.
Chinese culture has always prized education even as an end to itself. Traditionally to be the best educated is something to be admired and respected even if living as a pauper. Today values have changed. It's not enough to be educated, It's also important to earn money. An education alone isn't 3nough. China today is a superficial society based largely on promotion and appearance rather than real accomplishment and the people are only recently realizing this. The answer is simple. If you want to actually achieve something in life leave China. A foreign education will often enable building relationships with private enterprise which doesn't exist in China. Or, if you stay home then don't just study but take time to build relationships for your career before you graduate.
"China today is a superficial society based largely on promotion and appearance rather than real accomplishment and the people are only recently realizing this." - It seriously took them this long to realize this? So much for thousands of years of history...
Those Chinese who are claiming that there are more students graduating with PhDs than batchlor degrees really should take a math course. It is statistically imposible.
It is possible if they started massively opening up PhDs to people who graduated in the previous years and/or graduated abroad. Would be very strange, but not impossible. Also it’s written “bachelor”
they cannot migrate because they are the only son/daughter of their family, if they move to another country that mean no one take care for there parent, specially their parents are old.
they are emigrating on mass !!! consulates in china are filling weekly quotas in a single day! , with long lines still waiting and hoping to get in ! you can find a videoclip from an american consulate were in of the employees is holding a megaphone telling people in line that they cant see anymore applicants this week !!! as for the youth they dont care they are now highly educated and with that knowlegde comes forsight ! many want to move away from the traditions! from what i see many are happely emigrating /leaving there parents/family , and any social pressure that comes with it (when are you going to get married, buy house ,car, grand child ect...)as faraway as possible behind them!
Sad that they don't push trade schools in China since the perception is that blue collared work is considered "low class" when majority of good paying jobs are there.
Those days are long gone and it's happening everywhere around the world. I live in the US and it's the same thing, attend a 4-year university graduate and work for a reputable company for 40 years then retired. That was life decades ago, does not exist in today's society.
You don't do a Ph.D to make money. You do it because you are interested in undertaking a detailed and original research topic, which contributes to global and intellectual knowledge. Also probably the hardest task you can do in your life. An enormous number of Ph.D candidates give up because it is just too hard. I'm very glad I achieved the hard journey.
If you are rich, fine....and thats what my professor or Dean told me after my engineering degree. Went to him for advice to do masters. He looked me in the eye and asked...is your father rich 😂
similar arguments can be made all across the developed world about the applicability of the studies, and the value they bring to value creation. Academic institutions are incentivised to generate income by putting bums on seats for as little cost as possible. Little cost includes large classes, few contact hours with staff, and little requirement for equipment, materials and specialised facilities. That's why they like courses in marxism and women's studies.
Spoiled Chinese thinks they will have huge salary right from the start before showing they actually can work. Also they look on extremely inflated house prices. They will drop 75%. Then that salary will look great
I kind of remember somehow the advise of Xu qiyao to he's son, he's advise was these 3,yiu should have academic credentials but not true knowledge, true knowledge will destroy you, you would think indepently and independent thingking and a big thingking is a big taboo in polictics, remember a real PhD will never become an official.
12:13 "the more knowledge, the more reactionary". Amusing parallel with [Robert] Conquest's First Law: "everyone is conservative about what he knows best"
"Exam oriented education". Exactly. Real PhD's are NOT exam oriented but rather -- in addition to knowing absolutely everything about a subject -- are most importantly about imagination and critical thinking. Do they teach imagination and critical thinking in China? I don't get that impression.
Deflation solves the Ph.d Problem of Salary. The Right Person is meant for the Right Salary. Standards are growing in China 🇨🇳 with the Wage-Inflation. Both the Employer and Employee do work for Each Other under Deflation.
you get a job and study part time unless you training to be a real doctor or something similar. by the end you'll have experience and the piece of paper nobody cares about.
They can't understand the nuances of the English language in speech or writing, their version of a PHD wouldn't be as valuable as a High School degree in the U.S... If you can't speak and understand the language well other than basic conversation, you can't communicate effectively.. which is more important than anything.
I suspect China file patents with limited commercial review and US institutions dont file unless they have a licensee. That could account for those differences between Chine and the US university filing.
Doing Phd straight especially in engineering is just like an extended bachelors degree. You need to already been employed or have actual experience while doing masters or phd, otherwise you dont have any clear direction with your career. Actual work experience is far more valuable than a phd or masters, unless if you just want to be an academic
A PhD in "Marxist Theory".... enough said.
What are you on about
Nvm just go to that part of the video lmao 😂
Just like Americas degrees in gender studies or degrees in diversity equity and inclusion or fine arts degree. All useless
Yeah...the moment I heard that, I was like "it all makes sense now"
Her parents is not asian enough 😂 could have a phd in law, med, engineering, physics, etc.
4:52 That PhD in "Marxist Theory" is really going to feed your family. Like mao did in the 1960
I almost choked when I heard that one. A degree in communism in a capitalist economy is not going to get you anything.
That must be the equivalent of a degree in "Lesbian dance theory" in America. lol
@@ajrodriguez8601 Hahah. Even that degree maybe worth more than the marxist one 😂😂

they cannot migrate because they are the only son/daughter of their family, if they move to another country that mean no one take care for there parent, specially their parents are old.
they are emigrating on mass !!!
consulates in china are filling weekly quotas in a single day! , with long lines still waiting and hoping to get in !
you can find a videoclip from an american consulate were in of the employees is holding a megaphone telling people in line that they cant see anymore applicants this week !!!
as for the youth they dont care they are now highly educated and with that knowlegde comes forsight !
many want to move away from the traditions!
from what i see many are happely emigrating /leaving there parents/family , and any social pressure that comes with it (when are you going to get married, buy house ,car, grand child ect...)as faraway as possible behind them!
They should have studied supply and demand. More PhDs than undergraduates?! 🤡
Sad that they don't push trade schools in China since the perception is that blue collared work is considered "low class" when majority of good paying jobs are there.
Those days are long gone and it's happening everywhere around the world. I live in the US and it's the same thing, attend a 4-year university graduate and work for a reputable company for 40 years then retired. That was life decades ago, does not exist in today's society.
We have the same situation here in US. It's been this way here for many years, even decades.
You don't do a Ph.D to make money. You do it because you are interested in undertaking a detailed and original research topic, which contributes to global and intellectual knowledge. Also probably the hardest task you can do in your life.
An enormous number of Ph.D candidates give up because it is just too hard.
I'm very glad I achieved the hard journey.
If you are rich, fine....and thats what my professor or Dean told me after my engineering degree. Went to him for advice to do masters. He looked me in the eye and asked...is your father rich 😂
continue the great work idol
153,000 PhD students . That’s gonna flood the market with useless PhD
with AI going vertical this year - all degrees are worthless.
similar arguments can be made all across the developed world about the applicability of the studies, and the value they bring to value creation. Academic institutions are incentivised to generate income by putting bums on seats for as little cost as possible. Little cost includes large classes, few contact hours with staff, and little requirement for equipment, materials and specialised facilities. That's why they like courses in marxism and women's studies.
Well credentialed =/= well educated
Demonstrable skills and experience are the new PHD
Don't fall into the education debt trap
Agree to some degree. But i wouldn't go through a bridge designed by people who have no credentials.
Spoiled Chinese thinks they will have huge salary right from the start before showing they actually can work.
Also they look on extremely inflated house prices. They will drop 75%. Then that salary will look great
I kind of remember somehow the advise of Xu qiyao to he's son, he's advise was these 3,yiu should have academic credentials but not true knowledge, true knowledge will destroy you, you would think indepently and independent thingking and a big thingking is a big taboo in polictics, remember a real PhD will never become an official.
12:13 "the more knowledge, the more reactionary". Amusing parallel with [Robert] Conquest's First Law: "everyone is conservative about what he knows best"
Be a Medical D. Not an Academic D. There is no funding. No try. Try hard unless it pertains to your medical specialist specialty. But really. No.
China ask :"education ?" Phd . Where ? Usa . Resume is put in the trAsh
thats a lot of future food delivery drivers
Over Education.
Life is about balance, excess is just as deadly as famine.
Maybe these people should take an Economics class and learn about supply and demand.
I dispute the claim that 6% of USA population has a PHD.
Holy $hit, only take 10 yrs to buy a home? Wow! PHD in America can barely paid off their school debt, not to mention paying off loan on their home.
"Exam oriented education". Exactly. Real PhD's are NOT exam oriented but rather -- in addition to knowing absolutely everything about a subject -- are most importantly about imagination and critical thinking. Do they teach imagination and critical thinking in China? I don't get that impression.
Around the world the working class is working more and making less while the super rich get richer
Deflation solves the Ph.d Problem of Salary.
The Right Person is meant for the Right Salary.
Standards are growing in China 🇨🇳 with the Wage-Inflation.
Both the Employer and Employee do work for Each Other under Deflation.
MD = Money Doctor. PhD = poor hungry doctor
you get a job and study part time unless you training to be a real doctor or something similar. by the end you'll have experience and the piece of paper nobody cares about.
Half your life? Youre dying at 50?
If things are so costly in China, how come manage to make cheap goods
Can't imagine PhD in China is worth much.. certainly not overseas..
PhD's have become worthless everywhere in the world at this point.
Take a stand and take back what is yours.. Empower the 900 million suffering. Give them the mind body and heart to fight their way out of poverty.
A PHD in Marxist theory is looking for a job? 😂
No wonder college drop out make the most money and are usually are the CEO and the PHDs and masters degrees work for them
Easy to indoctrinate Masters and PhD students because they show little to no independent thought.
PhDs are worthless degrees. Attitude and practical experience are worth far more.
Why would taking a bunch of classes and writing a paper entitle you to anything?
They can't understand the nuances of the English language in speech or writing, their version of a PHD wouldn't be as valuable as a High School degree in the U.S... If you can't speak and understand the language well other than basic conversation, you can't communicate effectively.. which is more important than anything.
I think you need to readjust your expectations!
5:03 PhD in Marxist theory are you serious? How can anyone think that would be worth getting a PhD in?
Thank you buddy
A Phd in Uber seems to be a viable option.
Many of those STEM students want to move abroad.
Who tf gets a PhD in Marxist theory?
That woman did apparently. And she's not the only one.
I suspect China file patents with limited commercial review and US institutions dont file unless they have a licensee. That could account for those differences between Chine and the US university filing.
CCP jobs are the best
Doing Phd straight especially in engineering is just like an extended bachelors degree. You need to already been employed or have actual experience while doing masters or phd, otherwise you dont have any clear direction with your career. Actual work experience is far more valuable than a phd or masters, unless if you just want to be an academic
Marxism Theory PhD is like the Chinese version of an English degree in America, except with even slimmer employment prospects.
If every1 is going for the same thing the competition is gonna way you down
It all boiled down to pure propaganda by a vassal territory. 😀
PhD... What does it mean in China? Its just a scam
i'm curious what kind of job she expected with a phd in Marxist theory???
It's pointless. The videos of kids refusing to study anymore because its pointless. Parents also heartbroken 😭. Why bother?
You have PhD,make your own house. Just pour concrete, bend the rebar simple
All these "phd in marxist theory" leave Kamala alone 😂😂😂😂
There is a lot of everything in the world. This is nothing new
You shouldn't be getting a degree at university, but rather studying electrical engineering or plumbing, for example.
Academic snobs think a PhD entitles them to a well-paid job. Getting on a scooter and delivering food will teach them humility...
