Advantages of the college entrance examination for calligraphy majors
First, the performance requirements for cultural courses are relatively low.
Second, the major is relatively easy to test. The calligraphy major offered by each institution is generally three modes when it comes to professional examinations:
1. Copying, that is, copying the excerpts of the ancient character posters given, generally not more than 40 words.
2. Creation, the test paper gives the prescribed content, and uses the book style that you are good at to create.
3. Seal engraving and printing design.
Third, the number of recruiting institutions and numbers is increasing. The Ministry of Education of the People's Republic of China is controlling the number of enrollments in the music and body beauty major, while the calligraphy major not only does not control, but also vigorously expands the enrollment, and the professional direction setting is more and more scientific and reasonable.
Fourth, the size of the candidates is not large, and the number of candidates is relatively small.
Fifth, the professional direction is more rationalized. For example, the direction of calligraphy culture of Zhejiang University, the direction of calligraphy and painting appraisal of Jinan University, the direction of art design calligraphy of Xi'an Jiaotong University, the direction of decorative art calligraphy of Shandong Academy of Arts and Crafts, the direction of teacher calligraphy of Taiyuan Normal College, etc., all have distinct employment orientation.
Direction of employment
1. A popular calligraphy teacher
With the gradual realization of calligraphy education in primary and secondary schools, the shortage of teachers is quite large. Calligraphy classes are opened in primary and secondary schools across the country, and calligraphy teachers need 300,000 people, and according to the scale of training calligraphy teachers in primary and secondary schools according to existing universities, it takes decades to complete, so in the next few years, calligraphy graduates are a very tight industry.
Many graduates choose to start their own businesses and offer children's training or adult training, which is enough to be self-sufficient and worry-free.
2. Newspapers, publishing houses, television stations
There are more than 20 kinds of newspapers and periodicals related to calligraphy in the mainland, and it is necessary to have relevant professionals who understand calligraphy to engage in work. Moreover, newspapers and periodicals in addition to this also need to have people who understand calligraphy and other arts to run literary and art supplements.
There are more than 40 art publishing houses in the mainland, and there are dozens of non-art publishing houses that publish calligraphy art books, and the publication of calligraphy posters and calligraphy books must have calligraphy professional knowledge, and calligraphy editing is a good channel for calligraphy students to find employment. TV stations also need people who know the art of calligraphy to run relevant programs.
3. Cultural department
At present, the cultural department has professional departments specializing in calligraphy research, such as: cultural centers, literary associations, museums, and art galleries are in urgent need of calligraphy professionals to engage in identification and identification. At present, the party and government organs, enterprises and institutions have developed rapidly, but cultural things must always exist. The use of "pen" for written materials is still a existence that can never be deleted by organs and departments.
4. Enterprises and institutions
It is also possible to apply for the civil service examination; With the development of the economy, culture has received more and more attention, and enterprises and institutions also need calligraphy and other art graduates in the construction of corporate culture.
5. Calligraphy creation and research
Nowadays, calligraphers have also become a respected freelance calligraphy that has gradually developed into a more pure art category. The works of professional calligraphers who specialize in research also naturally go to the market and become works of art. Calligraphy and art are an important component of the commodification of the cultural market, and the market recognizes that full-time calligraphers have naturally become respected professions.
6. Literary and artistic soldiers are popular in the military
When you go to college, you can join the army, and there are many opportunities for promotion and transfer during your service. The so-called technology is not pressurized, and there is always a competitive advantage in having a skill.
7. Calligraphy and painting market
Auctions, collections, appreciations and other calligraphy and painting and criticism market is hot, learning calligraphy is a window, and later turn to art investment. Appreciation, collection, and auction are very helpful.
8. Learning calligraphy can also be engaged in design work
In the calligraphy major offered by the university, students' courses in school are not only to practice brush characters every day, but also to study literary history, art theory, computer software applications and other skills, which can be applied to design, art, art guidance, computer font library and other work in the future.
