米国ウェストバージニア大学が文系学部削減。日本も無価値の文系を削減すべき！？｜掲示板スレッド

米国中堅州立大学のウェストバージニア大学が、主に文系の語学・文学・言語学・教育等の12学部専攻、20大学院専攻を削減。

理由は同分野への関心の低下があげられている。

米国の10年後を追う日本の大学も、家で自習可能な文系学部の削減が続くと予想される。

"The university cited low interest in targeting the Department of World Languages, Literature and Linguistics for elimination. That includes bachelor's degrees in French and Spanish along with Chinese, German and Russian studies and master's programs in linguistics and teaching English to speakers of other languages.

Among the proposed cuts in other master's degree programs include acting, creative writing, higher education administration and multi-categorical special education, legal studies and public administration."
