Hello! My name is Kaylee, and I am from Texas! I'm a violinist, yoga fan, and lover of food and books. I have always enjoyed learning about different cultures and learning new languages is the best way to do that! I'm currently getting my TEFL certificate so that I can teach and support myself while I travel in the future, and would love to learn more languages on the way.

    Nowadays the economic needs of society are constantly changing. There is no way to predict some needs, like if a natural disaster occurs in certain city or an epidemic spreads in a country. However, there are some need that can be predicted like technological needs, and there are some reasons to gear the university courses to satisfy these needs.

    It can be useful both for the students and the society to gear the university courses to the needs the society has, making sure all the students will have a job when they finish their courses and reducing unemployment. Furthermore, creating specialists on the needs of society could improve and develop new technologies and make a country have better quality of life. Nevertheless, a constant change on the university courses could be hard for teachers who need to take a long time preparing the course and likewise for the students who maybe will not be able to study what they want to beacuse the universities have already changed the course.

    In conclusion, the universities should gear their courses to the economic needs of society. This can improve the quality of life of a country and make it a better place to live in.
