Abstract

With the growing of the sale and the car ownership in China, the automotive after-market is full of business opportunities which induce the short supply of talent for the automobile service engineering. Therefore, since the automobile service engineering was approved as a specialty for higher education by the Ministry of Education of the People’s Republic of China in 2003, more than 163 colleges and universities in China set up such a specialty. However, although the employment prospect of this specialty is bright, the number of the students for this major is small which is characterized as the less enrollment and the switching to another major after a period of study on automobile service engineering. The innovation of this paper lies in that we investigated such a phenomenon by questionnaires in Zhuhai College of Jilin University and we find that the reason lies in both students and the publicity of the major.
