Elon Musk曾经说过,根据他自己的经验,在美国除了医学,其他专业都没有必要上大学。Elon Musk says college is 'basically for fun and not for learning。You don't need college to learn stuff'。 Tesla chief told audience member at conference that college was unnecessary despite many SpaceX job postings requiring a degree。“I don't consider going to college evidence of exceptional ability,” Musk said. “In fact, ideally you dropped out.” Musk listed some “smart guys” who dropped out of college: Bill Gates, Steve Jobs and Larry Ellison. He also made his reference to Shakespeare, in fact the son of a glover who received a grammar school education but no more. Musk in fact has two bachelor's degrees, having attended Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario, and the University of Pennsylvania, where he graduated from the Wharton School – Donald Trump’s alma mater – in 1997. He did manage to drop out of his PhD program at Stanford, after two days.
