Question

Read the rubric, then write your report.

Answer

Introduction

The purpose of this report is to suggest ways to encourage more students to study science subjects at university.

Curriculum

Firstly, I believe that the secondary school curriculum should change to make science subjects more interesting to students. For example, if students had the chance to do more experiments and carry out research that shows science in action, I think they would be more interested in the subject.

Career Opportunities

Secondly, I think it would be a good idea to make secondary students more aware of the career opportunities that studying science at a higher level can offer. For example, if they were aware that science graduates have a greater chance of finding high-paid jobs than graduates in art subjects at home and abroad they may choose to study science at university.

Conclusion

To sum up, if students become more involved in science subjects at secondary school and become aware of the fact that they can have a well-paid career as a scientist, I believe more subjects will choose to study science at university.
