大学生缘何选择国外研究生教育:源于扎根理论的研究

Why College Students Choose to Graduate Education Abroad:a Grounded Theoretical Study

通过对选择国外研究生教育的12名大学生进行访谈,运用扎根理论分析发现,大学生选择国外研究生教育的主观原因是个体及其家庭因社会性焦虑和阶层突围而产生的“内驱力”,客观原因是因学历通胀引起学历内卷的“外压力”,这些成因又分别包含多个次级因素。大学生选择国外研究生教育背后存在着价值观、教育观和人文环境冲突等问题,需要引起大学生个体、家庭以及全社会的重视。

Through interviews with 12 college students who choose to study abroad for graduate education,this paper uses grounded theory to analyze that the subjective cause of college students choosing to study abroad for graduate education is the“internal drive”of individuals and families due to social anxiety and class breakout,and the objective cause is the“external pressure”caused by education inflation.These causes,in turn,contain multiple secondary factors.At the same time,behind college students’choice of overseas graduate education,there exist some thought provoking problems such as values,educational views and humanistic environment conflicts,which need to attract the attention of individual college students,families and the whole society.
