The 2023 Admissions and Career Guidance Day in Thanh Hoa has concluded successfully.

The counseling team at the program consisted of 12 experts from the Ministry of Education and Training, representatives from military schools, and leaders from many major training institutions in the North. The counseling team provided the latest information on the 2023 high school graduation exam; things students need to be aware of in the 2023 university and college admissions; and advice to help students orient their future careers. At the same time, the experts directly answered questions and clarified concerns from students and parents regarding admissions information, the 2023 aptitude test, the 2023 thinking skills assessment test, advice on choosing admission methods, and guidance on selecting majors and schools…
Despite the cold weather and drizzle, thousands of high school students from Thanh Hoa city and surrounding districts came to attend and learn about admissions at more than 50 exhibition booths of various universities.
The booth of the University of Social Sciences and Humanities attracted considerable attention from high school students, parents, and teachers from Thanh Hoa province. During discussions with the university's admissions officers, students expressed their interest in several majors, but still had concerns about the curriculum, required aptitudes, suitability for the field, job prospects, and the university's policies to support students during their studies. Many students also inquired about admission methods: Does the university accept high school transcripts? What are the admission policies and priority points awarded to students who have won awards in the gifted student competition? Numerous other specific questions followed. After receiving enthusiastic advice and guidance from the officers on choosing majors that matched their abilities and interests, the students were very excited, confident, and determined to focus on studying hard to be admitted to their desired majors.
Sharing at the counseling session, Vice Rector Assoc. Prof. Dr. Dang Thi Thu Huong said that many humanities fields are experiencing shifts in job opportunities and social standing. For example, psychology is attracting more attention due to the increased demand for human resources in society.

"More and more students need psychological support and counseling. Therefore, high schools are now paying attention to opening psychological counseling rooms for students and have a very high demand for personnel," Ms. Huong said.

Ms. Huong also shared that while history graduates previously only worked in research and teaching, there are now many specializations offering students more choices. For example, urban history studies provides highly skilled personnel in urban management based on in-depth knowledge of the history, culture, and beliefs of various communities. This is a very interesting specialization with high job opportunities.
