現在碩士博士周街都是，尤其是我的工作環境，個個學歷差不多，而學歷跟品格、common sense、智慧不一定成正比，成反比的，亦多的是，所以甚麼學歷完全不在我考慮一個人質素如何之列。 現在尤甚，全球大學都開辦修課式碩士學位，大量收生等如大量增加收入，這個方向亦變成很多大學增加收入的辦法。有些大專院校，本來修課式碩士班收一百人，因為賺錢，翌年竟馬上大增名額到五百人。學生瞬間多五倍，但行政人手、恒常師資、校園硬件和軟件配套卻依舊，可想而知，課程質素會如何。 觀察到的現況是，全球高等教育正陷入一場「學歷通脹」危機，每年大量碩博士「出產」，而某些國家尤其嚴重——十年間，碩博士畢業生人數翻倍，在學博士總量飆升至六十萬人。當碩博士頭銜氾濫，光環就會急速褪色，取而代之的是就業市場的殘酷擠壓、教育資源的嚴重錯配，以及「高學歷低就業」的社會實況。 過剩的代價，最終由全社會埋單，將會有愈來愈多的「高學歷低能力」人士湧現職場或大學教職位。亦會有大量高學歷畢業者因高不成低不就，就業無門，被迫轉行或「躺平」，造成高端人力資源的嚴重浪費。當博士頭銜不再代表「頂尖人才」，而只是「延緩就業」的避風港，高等教育的意義何在？ 碩博士學位原本是學術頂尖人才的象徵，現幾乎因學歷通脹而變成就業市場的「基本門檻」。碩博士氾濫，並非代表我們的社會「教育進步」了，而是資源錯配的警號。當社會不再需要那麼多碩博士，卻仍在瘋狂生產，最終只會暴露出高學歷銜頭之平庸，這只會釀成一場更大的就業與教育危機。 撰文 : 利嘉敏 欄名 : 攻關女子 Source link
