The truth behind 'useless' degrees

In releasing the list of degree choices recently, it was revealed some degree programmes failed to attract enough students to make a class. A scrutiny of these programmes would show some are good except for poor marketability.

However, some are not supposed to be degree programmes but courses. It might be too strong to term such programmes useless, we need to re-examine the courses we offer in our institutions of higher learning and not only align them to the job market, but also make them be able to give students the right knowledge, skills and attitude.
