Research On The Demand Of Higher Education In Senior

After expending college enrollment, a great many of college graduates are entering the labor market, because supply exceeds demand, part of those graduates can not find jobs, even they find jobs, the initiative pay is on the low side. The loss of college graduates in the labor market will affect the education needs for high school students in educational opportunity market, what are the factors which influencing higher education demand? From the fact research of Yang Jiaping middle school, we can find that although graduates are on unfavorable situation in labor market, the high-school pupil is still intense to the higher education demand. From the view of statistics, higher education demand hasn't had correlativity with variables which contains gender, parental occupations, education level of parents, teachers' encourage, pleasure of studying, regards from relatives, the number of community college students and so on, but has notable correlativity with variables of the sum income of parents, achievement of senior high school students, students' education view, the expected income after work, the even monthly opportunity cost, about 10,000 annually could receive higher education expenses showed significant correlation and so on.We can come to a conclusion: high consumption of diploma let the public scramble for higher education, it is not sure to find a job when graduate from university. However, it is hard to live without university. There is a rapid increasing of graduated students of universities. Under certain conditions, demands for the labor of high school graduates will decrease for some time. Educated young labor will drive the lower educated labor away from formal departments to the informal departments for jobs, even unemployment. After secondary education become universal, large number of graduates may enter into informal departments; this is the reason to go to university. Among the people who have middle income, one's demands for higher education will be more violent with the increase of one's income. However, there are two special situations, in the group of the lowest income, the demand for higher education will be extremely strong. Higher education seems to be a ladder for the lowest people to climb up to the upper society and it is also an approach for them to change their fate. On the contrary, in the highest income of people, the motivation for higher education is not very strong because they do not need to increase their human capital to acquire a good price in the labor market. However, it is an enjoyment for them to receive higher education; spiritual need is greater than economical need. People who do well in their studies will have more need for higher education, but to whom don't do well in their studies, because of their lower ability to study, mostly they have no need for higher education. It is estimated that more annual income will lead to lower opportunity cost of education and more need for higher education. On the contrary, less annual income will lead to higher opportunity cost of education and motivate more people to work outside or wait for job.The country should enlarge the demands for higher education opportunities, and develop the private schools to meet the need of public who have a strong will of higher education. The loan system should be improved; the right to go to university for poor students should be protected and the equity of education should be improved .The country should also establish the standard of tuition fee and consider the burden of the public. The standards should be more scientific and the tuition fee should be controlled.
