Universities should require every student to take a variety of courses outside the student's field of study.

 

We have always heard of the statement "Jack of all trades, king of none". If the universities were to make every student take a variety of courses outside the student's field of study, that is the story which would be repeated in every students life. The student would know alot of aspects and subjects outside his area of focus but he would lose the in depth knowledge of his own field of study.

Great scientists have always demonstrated their in depth knowledge, which has led to great discoveries and inventions. Albert Eimestine knew almost all about physics which made him the master of it. His contributions to physics are solely based on his exquisite knowledge and expertise in the subject. If he were to start learning to dance along with physics the same results are certainly not expected.

Moreover the questions of how do universities expect students to focus every field he works in also arises from such a decision. When it's anyhow hard for students to work on multiple projects from the same course, it becomes an arduous job if students are expected to work on courses they have never worked on before. The students after their studies are expected to work in a certain sector of the society. If the student have a diverse span of knowledge the sector of occupation becomes bewildering for the student.

Anyhow to some extent the reason to a wide field of knowledge gives a route to a storage of untapped innovation for the students. Only when one tries to mix two different dishes together is when one creates a new one. In the same way when a student is exposed to a new culture outside his own he is able to look for new innovative ways to change one. Diversity is the very fundamental of our society. Just as every person is different from the other we would have students with a huge diverse field of knowledge if they were to learn outside their field.

Finally the idea to spread the field of knowledge of a student is a very convoluted topic. To some extent it should be kept upto the discretion of the student and not the university to decide upon.
