Tiivistelmä
This thesis aims to analyse the study and career planning of Chinese students facing graduation in Finland, such as their concerned issues, expectations for future development, and so on.
The theory is based on Super's career development theory and is divided into two main parts: in-depth study and work. First and foremost, Chinese undergraduate students are checked to see if they have any plans to continue their studies in Finland. If not, students must decide whether they wish to continue their education in another nation or work in Finland. To see if tuition fees and family support have an impact on Chinese undergraduate students' plans to study in Finland. There's also the issue of work to consider. This section focuses on whether they intend to work in Finland and what attracts them to the country. Furthermore, because Chinese students stay in Finland for a long time, the writers explore the cultural life component.
The authors conducted a questionnaire survey on some Chinese students working in Finland to understand the distribution of Chinese students’ majors, job preferences, and evaluation of career development. The authors also conducted in-depth interviews with 10 Chinese undergraduate students in Finland. Learn about their development plans after graduation and their willingness to work in Finland. This article mainly analyses the evaluation of the career development of the Chinese students employed in Finland and the students' future career plans in Finland through the qualitative method and summarizes the current situation of Chinese students' study and work in Finland with actual cases.
The survey found that Chinese bachelor students in Finland have a positive attitude towards their future development plans. Most of the students plan to stay in Finland after graduation to work or continue their studies, while Chinese students who are already working in Finland are concerned about the current situation brought about by the pandemic and the economic recession, and some are considering returning to their home country. Regarding culture shock, cultural integration and language issues do have an impact on the employment of Chinese students and their intention to stay in Finland for a long time.
As more and more Chinese students come to Finland to study, it is of great significance to eliminate prejudice against Chinese people's employment preferences and allow more people to regard Chinese students from a developmental perspective. This paper provides a reference for Chinese students in the future career planning and educational development aspect for future related researchers.
