1998-2004年全国工程硕士招生录取人数

（工程硕士：Master of Engineering）

        The diagram above clearly illustrates that a dramatic increase has occurred in the recruitment of Masters of Engineering in China during the past seven years. In 1998, the number was at a low of only about 2,500. Surprisingly, it reached more than 35,000 in 2004, within no more than seven years.

       Some driving factors that contribute to the above-mentioned change may be summarized as follows. First and foremost, China has become particularly active in economy, which has led to an increased demand for qualified talents. In addition, the development of the job market on the whole cannot keep pace with the expansion of college graduates, which has obliged a large number of students to stay on campus for another three years to get better prepared for their careers.

        It is necessary for us to take effective measures to ensure this situation doesn't get out of hand, and encourage students to choose majors for which both theoretical knowledge and practical skills will be demanded in the job market.

        上幅图表清楚地揭示了过去七年中国的工程硕士招生录取人数急剧增长。1998 年，招生人数较少，只有大约2500人。令人惊讶的是，到2004年，招生人数在不到七年的时间里达到了3.5万人以上。

        促成上述变化的一些驱动因素可以概括如下。首先，中国在经济方面变得异常活跃，这使得对高素质人才的需求增加。此外，就业市场的总体发展无法跟上大学毕业生人数的增加，这促使很多学生在校园里再待三年时间，为就业做更好的准备。

        我们必须采取有效措施确保这一状况不会失控，同时鼓励学生选择那些就业市场上需要的既有理论知识又有实践技能的专业。
