Education in Foreign Language
METU and some other universities in Turkey give education to their students in english language. I think that getting education in english language is good because it helps us have many opportunities. English language has become a world language. First of all, it will help us find jobs easier because we know a second language and the language we know is used almost everywhere in the world. When employers are going to choose an employee for their company; we will always be preferred to a person who applies for the same job with us but does not know english. Secondly, we can understand and communicate with many people from different parts of the world. So we can travel around the world and although our nationality, culture and the native language are quite different from the people of the country we visit, we find a common language to communicate and express ourselves to those people. People might claim the the education language for the students who study chemistry, physics and other sciences should not be english. But this is not right. I think it will also be helpful for those students to get education in another language which is the world language. They will have opportunitiy to read and understand the speeches, the books of the best scientist who right their works in english language and give speeches in english. Although we can find the translations of their works, i think it is better to read the original books and other stuff because the translations are not always done well.
