Zhejiang university of Finance and Economics (ZUFE) recently offered its students the chance to take an optional course, designed to guide students through difficult decisions using economic methods. The course was capped at 40 students, but more than 200 students applied to take it.
近日，浙江财经大学为该校学生提供了一门旨在指导学生使用经济方法做出困难决定的选修课。该课程上限40人，但是超过200个学生申请了修读。
University students are constantly faced with choices, both large and small. From choosing between the cafeteria and takeout for lunch, to deciding whether to stay in China or go abroad for a post-graduate degree, the dilemmas are seemingly endless.
大学生经常面临各种或大或小的选择。从选择自助餐厅还是午餐外卖到决定待在国内读研还是出国读研，纠结看起来是无穷无尽的。
Ni Ni, the teacher of the course, told Qianjiang Evening Post that economics could offer a great solution for those moments of indecision, as economic tools can estimate the actual cost and benefit behind a given decision’s outcome.
这门课程的老师倪妮（音）向《钱江晚报》表示，经济水平能够为这些犹豫不决的时刻给出一个不错答案，因为经济工具能够测量一个既定决定结果的实际支出和收益。
"I believe economic knowledge is able to improve our efficiency when making decisions. I therefore designed this course together with some senior students," Ni explained. Students can introduce their own tough decisions during class, and Ni will apply economic theories to help them arrive at the best solution. The forward-thinking professor also hopes this process will encourage students to apply economic thinking in other scenarios.
“我相信经济知识能够在做出决定时提高效率。因此，我与一些大四学生共同设计了这门课程，”倪妮解释道。学生们可以在课堂上介绍他们自己的艰难决定，倪妮将会运用经济理论帮助他们实现最佳解决方式。这名思想向前的教授还希望这一过程会帮助学生们在其它情境中运用经济思维。
In addition to the decision-making course, ZUFE is also offering other classes to help solve students’ day-to-day problems. For instance, a course about sports and weight loss can guide students to become healthier and change their bodies through a safe, wholesome approach. Another course related to romance and law offers students insight into different kinds of romantic relations, thereby linking love and law through interviews, video clips and reports.
除了决策课程，浙江财经大学还提供其它课程帮助解决学生的日常问题。例如，一个关于体育和减肥的课程能够指导学生变得更加健康，通过一种安全、有益健康的方式改变他们的身体。另外一个与爱情和法律有关的课程帮助学生看待不同种类的爱情关系，从而通过访谈、视频和报告将爱情与法律联系起来。
"We have studied some laws that we seldom encounter in daily life, yet they are closely related to our future," a student commented.
“我们研究了一些很少在日常生活中碰上的法律，然而它们与我们的未来息息相关，”一名学生评论道。
