What are the weird majors in universities?

1. Yixue major

What is Yixue major? It is also called Feng Shui, selected medicine, Yixue "The Book of Songs", or Yixue for short. Simply put, it is about ancient times. The theoretical knowledge in this area is also combined with the ancient Chinese thought of the unity of nature and man. Therefore, to explain various phenomena in life or to provide guidance on architecture, Yi Xue needs to learn various ancient theories, and it also requires To learn relevant Feng Shui knowledge, when practicing, you have to inspect places with various purposes or ghosts and gods to refute rumors, so it seems very mysterious. At present, there are not many universities offering this major, among which the most famous ones belong to Shandong University. Often this kind of course is only offered by relatively famous universities in China, because this kind of technology and science also belongs to Yixue, so it is not something that ordinary people can learn!

2. Grassland Science Major

It sounds incredible that you can get a degree if you can grow grass. Yunnan Agricultural University has this major. During the four-year period, students not only learn grass varieties, living conditions, and planting, but also learn the management of grass-related industries, such as grassland science, forage science, and turf science.

3. Equine Science Major

In 2011, Qingdao Agricultural University established the Equine Science major for the first time, becoming the first and only school in China to offer an undergraduate major in Equine Science. In order to cultivate professional horse racing talents, in 2015, the UAE's Dali Horse Industry Group set up an "equine science" scholarship at Wuhan Business School, investing 30,000 yuan every year to help two students from the school complete their studies. Among them, one student will also get the opportunity to receive practical training at a professional racecourse in Dubai. This profession sounds very cool, but in fact it is not as simple as riding a horse and walking a horse every day, nor is it so easy and "fun". In the equine science major training program, it takes more than 2,400 class hours in four years to successfully graduate. The courses studied also cover various fields. The main courses include: animal anatomy and histoembryology, animal biochemistry, feed science, microbiology, biostatistics and experimental design, livestock environmental hygiene, basic veterinary science, modern horse breeding, and equestrianism. Nearly 30 courses including horse training and care, equine pathology, etc.

4. Lottery Research Major

There is actually a lottery-related lottery research major in the university. I believe many people have never heard of it. In fact, Beijing Normal University has also established an academy of science related to lottery research, and is recruiting master's students in lottery research. According to experts, the number of people playing lottery has increased rapidly in the past two years. However, there are relatively few people who study lottery and their professional quality is relatively low, so they established the lottery research major. The National Lottery Development Research Institute of Beijing Normal University was established, with Xu Ruixin, former vice minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and president of the China Social Work Association, as its dean. According to reports, the college recruits lottery master's students. Experts say that China's lottery industry has grown at a rate of over 25% recently, with more than one million employees. However, there is a lack of talent, low-quality practitioners, and there are almost no institutions to train such talents.

5. Tea Science Major

Students in the Tea Science Department have been asked by countless people with confused faces: "What to learn about tea? Drink tea", "Learn four things about drinking tea" Year?", "What will you do after graduation? Go to a tea shop and sell tea?" In fact, graduates from the Tea Department are "Bachelor of Agriculture", which is closer to agriculture, and tea is also an agricultural product. Currently, 24 universities including Zhejiang University, Anhui Agricultural University, and Hunan Agricultural University have opened tea science majors. The modern tea science discipline covers agriculture, industry, commerce, literature, medicine and other disciplines. It is a profession that is both scientific and humanistic.
