I am worried thinking the about the institutions where English is not given priority. I am an Indian and proud to say HINDI is my mother tongue and it is our Rastra bhasa. But we cannot deny the fact that we can not survive in this competitive world without ENGLISH
In today’s global world, the importance of English can not
be denied and ignored since English is the most common language spoken everywhere.
With the help of developing technology, English has been playing a major role
in many sectors including medicine, engineering, and education, which, in my
opinion, is the most important arena where English is needed. Particularly, as
a developing country, India needs to make use of this world-wide spoken
language in order to prove its international power. This can merely be based on
the efficiency of tertiary education. Consequently, English should be the
medium of instruction at universities in India for the following three reasons:
finding a high-quality job, communicating with the international world, and
accessing scientific sources in the student’s major field.
The first reason for why English should be the medium of
instruction at universities in India is that it helps students find a high
quality jobs for students to find. In business life, the most important common
language is obviously English. In addition to this, especially, high-quality
jobs need good understanding ability and speaking in English. Therefore,
companies can easily open out to other countries, and these companies generally
employ graduates whose English is fluent and orderly. For example, the student
who is graduated from a university which takes English as a major language will
find a better or high-quality job than other students who don’t know English
adequately. In other words, the student who knows English is able to be more
efficient in his job because he can use the information from foreign sources
and web sites. He can prepare his assigments and tasks with the help of these
information. Therefore, undoubtedly, his managers would like his effort or
prepared projects. In addition, many high-quality jobs are related with
international communication and world-wide data sharing. University graduates
who are in a international company and business are needed to communicate with
foreign workers. For instance, if their managers want them to share the
company’s data, they are expected to know English. Moreover, they will even
have to go business trip for their company. Absolutely, all of these depend on
speaking English;as a result, new graduates have to know English in order to
get a high-quality job, and the others, who don’t know English, may have lack
of communication and be paid less money.
The second and the most important reason, for English to be
the medium of instruction in the Turkish higher education system is that it
enables students to communicate with the international world. In these days, in
my opinion, the most important thing for both university students and graduates
is to follow the development in tecnology. For this reason, they have to learn
common language. Certainly, they should not lose their interest on
communicating with the world. However, some of the university students can’t
obtain English education in their university. Unfortunately, these people may
lose their communication with worldwide subjects and topics. In short, they
will not communicate foreign people. To prevent these people from lacking of
speaking English, universities’ administration will provide English education
to them. In addition, university students can use some specific hardware and
software of computers with their English to communicate others. For example,
the Internet, which, in my opinion, is the largest source in the world, based
on English knowledge and information. Also, most of the softwares such as
“Windows”, “Microsoft Office”, “Internet Explorer” are firstly written in
English, and these programs are the basic vital things for communication over
computer. That is to say, even in a little resarch about something, they need
these programs and the Internet to find necessary sources and information.
The last reason for favouring English as the medium of
instruction of Turkish universities is that it faclitates accessing
information. All of the students have to do some projects or homeworks which
are related with their field during the university education. In these projects
or homeworks, they have to find some information which is connected with their
subject. They find sources from English web sites and books, but they have to
replace these data to their projects. During these process, if they know
English, they will not come across with any difficulty, but if they don’t know,
even they may not use these data. As a result, the student who knows English
will be more successful at his/her project. For this reason, to obstruct
possible inequity between students, management of universities should accept
English as a second language in order to provide accessing information to the
students. In short, university students need to know English to access
information.
All in all, the education in universities should be done
with English for three reasons. First, students who know English are able to
find their favourite job related with their field. Second, they can communicate
with others internationally. Third, as a major language in universities,
English makes accessing information easy for students. In my opinion,
internationally, people need one common language. For many years, English has
been the common wold-wide language, and it will be in the future. For this
reason, if you want to follow trends, new gadgets and technology, modernization
of the developing world, you have to know English whatever age you are in.
