Recently, the strong foundation plans of major universities have been introduced.
For liberal arts candidates, only history, philosophy, and Chinese language and literature (paleography) can be reported.
So, how do liberal arts students choose these majors?
Strong base
Let's start with philosophy.
Philosophy, the discipline of the study of fundamental and universal questions, is a theoretical system of worldviews.
The philosophy major is defined as a discipline that cultivates applied and compound high-level professionals who have a certain degree of Marxist philosophical theoretical attainment and systematic professional basic knowledge, and can use scientific world outlook and methodology to analyze the contemporary world and China's current problems.
So, which schools are better for admitting philosophy majors? Let's look at the figure below.

So, after learning philosophy, what is our future employment direction?
The direction with the most demand philosophy majors is education/training/colleges, accounting for 29%; the region with the most demand philosophy majors is Beijing, accounting for 23%.
Employment directions can be teachers, very suitable jobs, as well as researchers in universities specializing in philosophical research;
Can be a civil servant, the mainland civil service examination has a special requirement for philosophy majors, philosophy majors have certain advantages in the examination of civil servants;
It can be a corporate policy decision-making and management personnel, this job does not require too much professional knowledge, mainly according to the ability of the individual to compete with other professions.
Next, let's look at The Chinese Language in Paleography.
Paleography is an emerging interdisciplinary discipline involving linguistics, archaeology, paleography, history and other disciplines.
For example, the excavation, collation and protection of ancient written materials need to rely on modern archaeology; The identification and interpretation of ancient characters needs to be based on the overall understanding of the history and law of the development of pre-Qin languages and scripts, that is, the knowledge and philology of ancient Chinese; The collation and study of ancient texts involves the theories and methods of ancient philology; The combination of ancient written materials and handed down documents has opened up new fields and prospects for historical research.
So, after learning paleography, what can you do in the future?
(1) For doctoral students, paleography can further do postdoctoral research or find teaching and scientific research positions to continue their research.
(2) Basic education teachers.
(3) Media publishing Chinese to the media is still quite a lot, in recent years, due to the needs of ancient book publishing, ancient book publishing houses, Chinese and Western bookstores have been recruiting editors of ancient characters, but it seems that the treatment of the publishing industry is more general.
(4) Civil servants and public institutions The public institutions here do not include the previous schools, media and publishing houses with business establishments.
(5) Planning, design and development of cultural products.
Finally, paleography, as a distinctive feature of interdisciplinary disciplines, naturally also determines the characteristics of the cultivation of paleography talents. Paleographer Tang Lan once said: "The kung fu of paleography is not in ancient scripts." Qiu Xigui, a famous contemporary paleographer, said: When learning the method of ancient characters, he particularly emphasized that "if you want to learn ancient characters well, you must master a lot of knowledge other than paleography." These opinions are not only their own experiences, but also explain the disciplinary characteristics of ancient script learning.
Next, let's talk about history.
Historiography is a form of human knowledge that sifts through and combines its own historical materials. History is a dynamic space concept in static time, which is composed of five parts: history, science, philosophy, human nature and its time and space.
So, which schools are good at history? Let's look at the figure below.
What is the direction of employment?

Party and government organs: mainly the civil service.
Press and publication department: mainly engaged in journalists, editors and other positions.
