Employment direction
1. Hospital
The number of Chinese medicine students is less than that of clinical medicine and stomatology, so there is less demand for Chinese medicine doctors in hospitals.

2. Medical equipment and pharmaceutical companies
Chinese medicine graduates can enter relevant enterprises and engage in research and development, production, testing and sales of medical devices, medicines and health care products. The proportion is higher than that of clinic.
3. Museum of Chinese Medicine
With the employment characteristics of Chinese medicine, graduates can go to Yiguang Chinese medicine middle school for diagnosis and treatment.
Senior has something to say.
1. Why should Chinese medicine combine arts and sciences?
On the one hand, some clinical (western medicine) treatments range from micro to macro, while traditional Chinese medicine treatments range from macro to micro. On the other hand, the clinical concept is to analyze pathology by scientific and technological means, and then prescribe the right medicine, while Chinese medicine is based on the accumulation of cultural medical skills to save lives. Traditional Chinese medicine does not have such high requirements for the basis of chemistry and biology. On the contrary, it requires students to be familiar with the contents of classic works of Chinese medicine, so liberal arts students can also learn Chinese medicine.
2. Learn Western medicine or Chinese medicine?
Rational discussion is not war! From the perspective of employment, the employment of western medicine is better than that of Chinese medicine, mainly reflected in the quality of employment and income from work: from the perspective of discipline research and development, the innovation of Chinese medicine research is far less than that of western medicine, and it is the historical mission of Chinese medicine and western medicine to deeply study the knowledge reserve of Chinese medicine with advanced scientific and technological means; To treat Chinese medicine and western medicine from a dialectical point of view, completely favoring either side will fall into rationalism and empiricism!
3. About the medical practitioner's certificate
It is divided into four categories: clinical, traditional Chinese medicine, oral and public health. This also means that if your major is basic medicine, forensic medicine, nursing, pharmacy and medical technology, you can't apply for a medical license. If you are a junior college student, you must first meet the major, and then take the assistant doctor's certificate before you can take the doctor's exam. There is still a way for Chinese medicine to get a doctor's qualification certificate. Please refer to relevant policies for details.
4. About Chinese medicine postgraduate entrance examination
Master is divided into master and master. In the medical field, the master tends to medical research, and the master tends to clinical diagnosis and treatment. Please pay special attention to:
(1) studying Chinese medicine, the employment is greater than the postgraduate entrance examination. If undergraduate employment can find a better job, there is no need to take the postgraduate entrance examination. If you want to enter a high-level hospital, it is recommended to take the postgraduate entrance examination or directly study nine-year Chinese medicine.
(2) Master students accept cross-disciplinary examinations and research. For example, undergraduate forensic doctors can take a master's degree in traditional Chinese medicine, but they still can't apply for a professional doctor's certificate of traditional Chinese medicine after graduation. (3) The major does not accept interdisciplinary research. For example, the undergraduate oral examination can't take Chinese medicine, and vice versa.
5. What about the employment of specialist Chinese medicine practitioners?
If you want to study medicine in a junior college, Chinese medicine is better than clinical practice. The employment of traditional Chinese medicine depends not entirely on academic qualifications. As mentioned above, Chinese medicine can also engage in rehabilitation and health care.
